Answer:

you can simply describe a formula as being a variable and an expression separated by an equal sign between them. In other words a formula is the same as an equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by subtracting the number that's being added to 4y. What you'll need to do now is divide the 4 into both side of the equation. default, it gives you the result as a whole number followed by a decimal with numbers after the decimal.

Given: 2x + b > -3. Find the value of b so that x > 3<br>Help a s a p please

masya89 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of b, we need to isolate it on one side of the inequality. We can do this by subtracting 2x from both sides, which gives us b > -3 - 2x.

Since we want x to be greater than 3, we can plug in the value 3 for x on the right-hand side of the inequality. This gives us b > -3 - 6, or b > -9.

Therefore, the value of b that makes the inequality true is any value that is greater than -9. For example, b could be -8, -7, -6, or any other value that is greater than -9.

To check if our solution is correct, we can plug in the value of b and the value of x (3) into the original inequality to see if it is true. If we plug in -8 for b and 3 for x, we get the inequality 2x + b > -3, which simplifies to 2 * 3 + (-8) > -3, or 6 - 8 > -3, which is true. Therefore, our solution is correct.

Answer below please!

Answer:

$x=-\frac{11}{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-1\frac{7}{9}=(-2\frac{5}{6} + \frac{1}{3})x$

Solve parenthesis first

$-2\frac{5}{6} + 1/3$

Find a common denominator.

The common denominator would be 6.

Because the first expression already has a denominator of 6 it stays the same.

$\frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{6}$

$-2\frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{6} = -2\frac{7}{6} = -1\frac{1}{6}$

Put that into the original equation.

$-1\frac{7}{9}=(-1\frac{1}{6} )x$

Isolate the x. Add $1\frac{1}{6}$ to each side.

$-1\frac{7}{9}+ 1\frac{1}{6}=x$

Find a common denominator.

we can use 18 as the common denominator.

$-1\frac{7}{9}+ 1\frac{1}{6}= -1 \frac{14}{18} +1\frac{3}{18}= x$

Add.

$-\frac{11}{18} =x$

We cannot simplify so our answer stays the same.

What is 100 x 0.95=_____

kifflom [539]

Answer: 95

Step-by-step explanation:

That’s the same as 0.95 of 100. That’s because 0.95 represents 0.95 and 100 represents 100, the of is the same as x. You can switch the two numbers and you can still get the same answer. So, 0.95 of 100 is 95.

A meter stick casts a shadow 2.4 m long at the same time a flagpole casts a shadow 9.7 m long. How tall is the flagpole

Luda [366]

The first thing we are going to do is draw a diagram of the situation to help us to solve the situation.
We an draw tow similar triangle between the length of the shadows and the height of the stick and the pole.
Since <span>meter stick has a length of 1 meter, the height of our smaller triangle is 1 meter. Let </span> $h$ be height of of the pole. Since both triangles are similiar we can establish a proportion between their corresponding sides and solve for $h$ :
$\frac{h}{1} = \frac{9.7}{2.4}$
$h=\frac{9.7}{2.4}$
$h=4.04$

We can conclude that the pole is 4.04 meters tall.
