20 is equal to 5 less than twice a number.

Mathematics

sweet [91]3 years ago
5 0
If we have a number represented by n, we have 20 is equal to, so 20=something. That something is "5 less than twice a number". 5 less than something means something-5, and something-5=20. Since 5 is less than twice a number, and twice a number is n+n=2n, we have 2n-5=20
Actually solving the problem, we can start by adding 5 to both sides, resulting in 2n=25. Next, we can divide both sides by 2 to get n=12.5

Directions: Place the LETTER of each value in its location in the real number system below.
finlep [7]

The most restrict classification of the numbers are given as follows:

  • Natural: 23.
  • Whole: 0.
  • Integer: -15/5 = -3, -1 and -sqrt(49) = -7.
  • Rational: 2.123, 3 and 1/4, 0.4 bar(F), square root of 16/25.
  • Irrational: π, -sqrt(35).

<h3>Which numbers are natural?</h3>

Natural numbers are positive numbers that do not have a decimal part. Hence among those, the natural numbers is: 23.

<h3>Which numbers are whole?</h3>

Whole numbers are non-negative numbers that do not have a decimal part. Hence among those, the whole number is: 0.

<h3>Which numbers are integers?</h3>

Integers are positive or negative numbers that do not have a decimal part, hence, for this problem, the integer numbers are: -15/5 = -3, -1 and -sqrt(49) = -7.

<h3>Which numbers are rational?</h3>

Fractions and terminating decimal numbers are rational, hence:

2.123, 3 and 1/4, 0.4 bar(F), square root of 16/25.

<h3>Which numbers are irrational?</h3>

Non-terminating and non-repeating decimals, such as non-exact square roots.

Hence the irrational numbers are:

π, -sqrt(35).

What is <br><br> 3x-2y=9<br> y=2x-7
avanturin [10]
Okay, these get easy with practice so don't post all of these online. First, substitute y in 3x-2y=9 for what it says y equals (2x-7). You now have: 3x-2(2x-7)=9. Breakdown:
3x-2(2x-7)=9
3x-4x+14=9
-1x=-5
x=5
next solve for y
y=2x-7
y=2(5)-7
y=10-7
y=3
And now we have x=5, and y=3.

Use the differential to approximate the expression. Then use a calculator to approximate the quantity, and give the absolute val
scoray [572]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

   0.0056

Step-by-step explanation:

  f(x) = √(49 +x)

  f'(x) = 1/(2√(49 +x))

A linear approximation of f(x) expanded about x=0 is ...

  f(x) ≈ f(0) + f'(0)x = 7 +x/(2·7)

Then for √53, we have x=4

  f(4) ≈ 7 +4/14 = 7 2/7 . . . . . approximate √53 using differentials

__

The calculator value of √53 is about 7.280110, so the difference in results is ...

  approx - actual ≈ 7.285714 -7.280110 = 0.005604 ≈ 0.0056
