Answer:

x = 45/7

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{7} =\frac{x}{9}$

Here, you can more easily see what the fractions look like.

In order to cross-multiply, you have to multiply 5 with 9, and 7 with x.

45 = 7x

Then, you isolate x by dividing 7 on both sides:

45/7 = x

Can someone solve this for me with their explanation please?

First you want to subtract 36

so it looks like this $\sqrt[4] {(4x+164)^3}=64$

Then you want to cancel out the square root 4 by raising that to the 4th power (you must do this to both sides)

${(4x+164)^3}=64^4$ which is equal to ${(4x+164)^3}=16777216$

Then you take the cube root to both sides [tex]\sqrt[3]{(4x+164)^3}=\sqrt[3]{16777216}[tex]

Then you end up with the equation 4x+164=256

Then subtract 164 to both sides

4x=92

then divide 92 by 4

Then you get x=23

A tumor in a rat responds to a new radiation treatment by shrinking 5% with each treatment. How many treatments before the tumor

Nuetrik [128]

A quarter of its original size would be 25% of 100%, right? Therefore, the tumor would have to shrink 75%. If each treatment, the tumor shrinks 5% that would mean it takes 15 treatments to shrink 75 percent.

If this helped, please thank, rate, and give brainliest answer!
