If five more than three times x is equal to 32, find the value of x.

2 answers:

8 0

First let's make the equation:

3x + 5 = 32

Now, let's subtract both sides by 5:

3x + 5 = 32
-5 -5
3x = 27

Now divide both sides by 3

x = 9

Hope this helps!

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

28 kg + 750 g = 28*1000 + 750

28000 + 750

= 28750 g

Number of sack = Total quantity of sugar ÷ quantity of sugar in a sack

= 28750 ÷ 500

= 57 sacks

Simplify by using the law of indices:<br>y^a(b+c)×y^b(c-a)×y^c(a-b)

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

$y^{2ac}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the law if indices

$a^{m}$ × $a^{n}$ = $a^{(m+n)}$

Thus to simplify the expression add the 3 exponents

a(b + c) + b(c - a) + c(a - b) ← distribute parenthesis

= ab + ac + bc - ab + ac - bc ← collect like terms

= 2ac

Then the expression simplifies to

$y^{2ac}$

Suppose y varies inversely with x, and y=39 when x=1/3.what is the value of y when x=26

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Varies inversely

xy = k

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

Find the constant of variation

y = 39 when x = 1/3

k = 1/3 * 39

k = 13

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

what is the value of y when x=26

26y = 13

y = 13/26

y = 1/2
