Here are some things you should know when solving algebraic equations.
If you add an expression to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation will have the same solution set as the original equation. In other words, they will be equivalent. This is true for all operations. As long both sides are treated the same, the equation will stay balanced.
You will also need to know how to combine like terms. But what are like terms to begin with? Like terms are defined as two terms having the same variable(s) (or lack thereof) and are raised to the same power. In mathematics, something raised to the first power stays the same. So, 5x and 10x are like terms because they both have the same variable and are raised to the first power. You don’t see the exponents because it doesn’t change the value of the terms.
To combine like terms, simplify add the coefficients and keep the common variable(s) and exponent.
The distributive property is another important rule you will need to understand.
The distributive property is used mostly for simplifying parentheses in expressions/equations.
For example, how would you get rid of the parentheses here?
6(x + 1)
If there wasn’t an unknown in between the parentheses, you could just add then multiply. That is what the distributive property solves. The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, now we can simplify our expression.
6(x + 1) = 6x + 6
Now let's solve your equation.
9v = 8 + v
8v = 8 <-- Subtract v from each side
v = 1 <-- Divide both sides by 8
So, v is equal to 1.
Answer:
$100,700
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Principal= $38,000
rate= 8.25%
Time= 20 years
Applying the simple interest
A=P(1+rt)
substitute
A=38000(1+0.0825*20)
A=38000(1+1.65)
A=38000*(2.65)
A=$100,700
Hence in 20 years she will pay $100,700
Answer:
~q→~p
Step-by-step explanation:
The contrapositive of a statement is formed by negating the hypothesis and conclusion of a statement and switching them (the hypothesis becomes the conclusion and vice versa).
With this definition we can conclude that the contrapositive of p→q would be ~q→~p
Answer:
12.1x+t
Step-by-step explanation:
since we do not get a specific amount we must add 4.8 and 7.3 and substitute the amount the driver earns per mile with x and use t as a variable if they charge something like $5 just to get in before driving
