2.14x - 12.18 = -5.76

Isolate the x, do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (and roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

2.14x - 12.18 = - 5.76

First add 12.18 to both sides to isolate the x

2.14x - 12.18 (+12.18) = - 5.76 (+12.18)
2.14x = - 5.76 + 12.18
2.14x = 6.42

Next, isolate the x by dividing 2.14 from both sides

2.14x/2.14 = 6.42/2.14
x = 6.42/2.14
x = 3

3 is your solution to the equation

Which information is necessary to solve this story problem? Sam had a total of 14 people at his skating party. The party lasted
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

For the problem we have:

Sam had 14 people at the party.

The party lasted for 4 hours.

He paid $2 for each person's skate rental and 3 for each person's entry ticket.

Suppose we want to know how much Sam spent on the party.

But we do not know if the $2 of the skate rental are per hour or per two hours, or in total, for example, if the amount is per hour, then the total amount for each skate is $2*4 = $8, so in the case that the rental depends on the time, we can not solve this problem because we do not have enough information.

If the $2 are fixed (do not depend on the time that the party lasted) then the fact that the party lasted for 4 hours does not matter.

We can calculate as 14 persons* ($2 + $3) each = 14*$5 = $70, then you can see that in this case the 4 hours data is not necessary

What is the value of b in the equation (y Superscript b Baseline) Superscript 4 Baseline = StartFraction 1 Over y Superscript 24
shusha [124]

The value of b is -6.

Explanation:

The expression is \left(y^{b}\right)^{4}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}

To determine the value of b, we shall solve the expression.

Applying exponent rule, \left(a^{b}\right)^{c}=a^{b c}, we get,

y^{4b}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}

Applying exponent rule, \frac{1}{a^{b}}=a^{-b}, we have,

y^{4b}=y^{-24}

The expression is of the form, a^{f(x)}=a^{g(x)} then f(x)=g(x)

Applying this rule, we get,

4b=-24

Dividing both sides by 4, we have,

b=-6

Hence, the value of b is -6.

what's the error? MAX said that 36,594,145 is less than 5,980,251 because 3 is less than 5. Describe max error and give the corr
forsale [732]
Just because the 3 is less than 5 doesn't mean it's less. What max did wrong was automatically see the first number and say it was greater/least because it's just the first digit. 36,594,145 is greater than 5,980,251 because the last 6 digits are invisible right now so thing about the numbers before the first comma- 36 and 5. Which number is greater? 36 so just because it's the first digit in the number doesn't make it automatically greater or less. *-sorry for such long paragraph*

Can someone explain how to get to answer B?
sesenic [268]
Yo have to find the distance between point L and point M. First, you have to do the x values. 1 - -3 = 4. Then, you subtract the y values. -2 - 4 = -6. Next, you add the found numbers to the x and y of the midpoint (m). Leaving 1 +4=5 and -2 + -6 = -8.
