I believe their both linear because their in the correct form
Answer:
1/7 (option d) of the sensors on the satellite have been upgraded
Step-by-step explanation:
Each unit contains the same number of non-upgraded sensors
number of non-upgraded sensors for each module (nus)
total number of upgraded sensors on the satellite (tus)
satellite is composed of 30 modular units
total number of non-upgraded sensors on the satellite (tnus):
tnus=30*nus
total number of sensors on the satellite (ts):
ts=tnus+tus = 30*nus + tus (I)
The number of non-upgraded sensors on one unit is 1/5 the total number of upgraded sensors on the entire satellite
nus=(1/5)*tus
tus = 5 * nus (II)
Fraction of the sensors on the satellite have been upgraded (FU):
FU = tus/ts
Using I and II
FU= (5* nus)/(30*nus + tus)
FU = (5* nus)/(30*nus + 5 * nus)
FU = (5* nus)/(35*nus)
FU = 1/7
1/7 (option d) of the sensors on the satellite have been upgraded
Since anything multiplied by zero produces zero, we can say 0(a + 1) = 0 and (2a - 2)(0) = 0.
Thus, 2a - 2 = 0 or a + 1 = 0
2a = 2
a = 1
a = -1
We can conclude that a = 1 or - 1 will produce the end result as 0.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Create an expression to model the situation. One can do this by simply rewriting the written expression in terms of numbers and variables. Use the variable (x) to represent the unknown value.

Simplify this expression,

Use inverse operations to solve for (x),
