Three-eighths of the sum of sixteen times a number and twenty-four. How do you set this up?

Mathematics

If you break it up:

Three-eighths = 3/8

Sixteen times a number, we'll call the unknown number X, so 16X.

Twenty Four = 24

The sum of 16X and 24 = 16X + 24

We want 3/8 of that sum so we put the sum in parenthesis and we get:

Y = 3/8(16X + 24) where Y is the answer youd get if you knew what X was.

A rectangular pen has a length 4 feet greater than its width. Find the area
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

b. x^2+4x

Step-by-step explanation:

So since you don't know the width, you can just represent it as a variable, and in this case that variable will be "x". Now using this variable we can use it to represent the length since there is a relationship between the width and length which is given. Since the length is 4 feet greater than the width, we can represent the length as (x+4). Now to find the area, we simply multiply the length * width, which is x * (x+4) = x^2 + 4x

Is this correct if not which one is and why
zheka24 [161]
I believe the smallest would be D since even though B is a decimal with a lot of zeros in front of the #, B is still a positive # and D is a negative number being lower in the # line, so D or -200 would be the smallest

What is 36 divide by 837
Dominik [7]
You want to take 837 out of 36. 
you can get 837 out of 3 0 times so you tack on the 6(0)
you get 837 out of 36 0 times so you tack on a zero(00)
Because you are adding a 0, you are now creating a decimal
you get 837 out of 360 0 times so you tack on a 0 (00.0)
You get 837 out of 3600 4 times so you put the 4 after the 0s (00.04)
Now you multiply 4 and 837 to get 3,348 and take that away from 3600 to get 252
Not you tack on a 0. 
You get 837 out of 2520 3 times so you tack the 3 on behind the 4. (0.043) 
Because of significant digits, your answer is 0.043

What expression is equivalent to m-4/m+4 divided by (m+2)
Ilya [14]
The first answer is correct coz ( for instance ) ‘x’ is divided by ‘y’ then this is similar to the x multiples by 1/y

So in that case, if we apply the same analogy to this question then the answer would be m-4/(m+4) ( m+2)

H(a) = 2a+ 5g(a) = 3a−5Find h(a)+ g(a)
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

5a

Step-by-step explanation:

h(a) = 2a+ 5

g(a) = 3a−5

h(a)+g(a)

(2a+5)+(3a-5) (substitution)

2a+5+3a-5 (open parentheses)

5a+0 (solve)
