Answer:

90+x=30-3[x]

Step-by-step explanation:

collect like terms

x+3x=30-90

4x=-260

divide both sides by 4

x=-60/4

x=-4*3*5/4

x=-[3*5/1]

x=-[3*5]

x=-15

Answer:

The number is 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = unknown number.

Now we translate the sentence into an equation, one piece at a time.

When 90 is added to a number it equals 30 less than 3 times the number.

x + 90

When 90 is added to a number it equals 30 less than 3 times the number.

x + 90 = 3x - 30

We now solve the equation for x.

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-2x + 90 = -30

Subtract 90 from both sides.

-2x = -120

Divide both sides by -2.

x = 60

The number is 60.

Check:

When 90 is added to a number it equals 30 less than 3 times the number.

Add 90 to 60:

90 + 60 = 150

We get 150.

When 90 is added to a number it equals 30 less than 3 times the number.

Now multiply 60 by 3 and subtract 30.

3(60) - 30 = 180 - 30 = 150

We also get 150.

That means our answer of 60 is correct.

What are the solutions to the equation -5x2 + 3x = -9

Aleks04 [339]

Answer: Move terms to the left side−52+3=−9−5x2+3x=−9−52+3−(−9)=0−

Common factor−52+3+9=0−5x2+3x+9=0−(52−3−9)=0

Divide both sides by the same factor−(52−3−9)=0−(5x2−3x−9)=052−3−9=0

Solution=3±321 over 10

A cup of coffee contains about 100 mg of caffeine. Caffeine is metabolized and leaves the body at a continuous rate of about 12%

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. $A = C_{0}(1-x)^t\\x: percentage\ of \ caffeine\ metabolized\\$

b. $\frac{dA}{dt}= -11.25 \frac{mg}{h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need tot find a general expression for the amount of caffeine remaining in the body after certain time. As the problem states that every hour x percent of caffeine leaves the body, we must substract that percentage from the initial quantity of caffeine, by each hour passing. That expression would be:

$A= C_{0}(1-x)^t\\t: time \ in \ hours\\x: percentage \ of \ caffeine\ metabolized\\$

Then, to find the amount of caffeine metabolized per hour, we need to differentiate the previous equation. Following the differentiation rules we get:

$\frac{dA}{dt} =C_{0}(1-x)^t \ln (1-x)\\\frac{dA}{dt} =100*0.88\ln(0.88)\\\frac{dA}{dt} =-11.25 \frac{mg}{h}$

The rate is negative as it represents the amount of caffeine leaving the body at certain time.

inna [77]

Answer:

The sample proportion of successful procedures is 0.962.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample proportion of successful procedures is the number of successfiç procedures divided by the total number of procedures.

In this problem:

158 procedures, of which 152 were successful. So

p = 152/158 = 0.962

The sample proportion of successful procedures is 0.962.
