Answer:

x = (9/24)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one: Subtract 10x from both sides.

24x - 18 = -9

Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.

24x = 9

Step 3: Divide it all by 24.

x = (9/24)

Hello there! Your answer would be x = 9/24.

You want to isolate x, and get everything on the other side of the equation.

Let's start by subtracting 10x from both sides. This will cancel it out on the right side, so our x values are only on the left side.

34x-10x - 18 = 10x-10x - 9

24x - 18 = - 9

Next, you want to add 18 to both sides so the x values are on their own side.

24x - 18+18 = - 9+18

24x = 9

Now our last step is to divide both sides by 24 to finish isolating x.

24/24x = 9/24

x = 9/24

The equation is already simplified, so we don't need to simplify any further. I hope this helps and have a great day!

First group rate is x+10, Second is x
First group made 160, Second made 120
Time the first group will take is 160/x+10, and second is 120/x
Equation is: 160/x+10 + 4 = 120/x
x=10, x=-30
The second group made 10 suits everyday.

Determine which expressions could be used to help find each component of the ice cream cone. ( answer choices are in picture que

grigory [225]

Answer:

1). a

2). b

3). c

4). d

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture of a cone attached,

Radius of the circular top = r

Height of the cone = h

Slant height of the cone 'l' = 6

Area of the circular top of the cone with radius 'r' = πr²

Amount of space inside the cone = Volume of the cone = $\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2} h$

The amount of wrapper needed to cover the side of the ice cream cone, not including the circular top of the cone = πrl = πr(6 in.)

The vertical height 'h' of the cone when the cone is standing upright = $\sqrt{6^2-r^2}$

[By Pythagoras theorem, l² = h² + r² ⇒ h = $\sqrt{l^2-r^2}$ ]

3/4 and 5/6
Now, you have to find the common denominator to compare the two fractions properly. Let’s see... 12 can be divided by both 4 and 6. So we’re going to convert both denominators to 12.

3*3= 9 and 4*3=12 so 3/4 = 9/12

5*2= 10 and 6*2=12 so 5/6 = 10/12

Bryan’s brother ate more peach.

Which<br>expression is equivalent to 1/5m -20

muminat

There are infinite equivalent expressions. Here are some:

1/5(m-100)

20(1/100m-1)

1/5m-(4•5)

If you expand any of these or any of the terms, you will get an equivalent expression.
