the sum of 38 and three times a number is 89

(38+3n) = 89

subtract 38 from each side

3n = 51

divide by 3

n = 17

38+3x=89 is the proper way to write this equation.

<em>Now to solve, first subtract 38 from both sides</em> (38-38 and 89-38)

3x=51

<em>Now divide both sides by 3</em>( 3x/3 and 51/3)

x=17

What is the measure (in radians) of central angle 0 in the circle below? Enter an exact expression.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

$\frac{\pi^{c} }{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of the length of an arc of a circle is given as:

$l = \frac{ \theta}{2\pi} \times 2\pi r \\ \\ \pi = \frac{ \theta}{2\pi} \times 2\pi \times 3 \\ \\ 3 \theta = \pi^{c} \\ \\ \theta = \frac{\pi^{c} }{3} \\$

My teacher wanted us to try this out, but I don't understand it as much.

solve for the indicated variable means isolate that variable.

Ans(7)

P=IRT (T)

that means solve for T or make T alone on one side of equal.

To do that we just need to move IR on the left side

So we get:

$\frac{P}{IR}=T$

Hence final answer will be $T=\frac{P}{IR}$

Ans(8)

2x-3y=8 (y)

-3y=8-2x

$y=\frac{8-2x}{-3}$

Ans(9)

V=LWH (L)

$L=\frac{V}{WH}$

------------

Ans(10)

A=2(L+W) (w)

A=2L+2W

A-2L=2W

$\frac{A-2L}{2}=W$

$W=\frac{A-2L}{2}$

Ans(11)

ax+by=c (y)

by=c-ax

$y=\frac{c-ax}{b}$

Ans(12)

$P=\frac{R-C}{N}$ (R)

PN=R-C

PN+C=R

R=PN+C
