Answer: $\dfrac{x}{5}+4=16\\\\and\\\\x=60$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The quotient of a number and five increased by four is sixteen a

Let the number be 'x'.

The quotient of a number and five is written as

$\dfrac{x}{5}$

And it is increased by 4 is written as

$\dfrac{x}{5}+4$

And the equation is equal to 16.

$\dfrac{x}{5}+4=16$

And the solution would be

$\dfrac{x}{5}+4=16\\\\\dfrac{x}{5}=16-4=12\\\\x=12\times 5\\\\x=60$

Hence, $\dfrac{x}{5}+4=16\\\\and\\\\x=60$

The problem would be written out like this: n/5 + 4 = 16. We would have to subtract 4 from both sides to get n/5 = 12. Then, we multiply both sides by 5 and after that step, you get 60. n = 60.

Work out the value of each expression, when r= 2.5 and t = 6.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a) 4(t - r) = 4(6 - 2.5) = 4 x 3.5 = 14

b) 4t - r = (4 x 6) - 2.5 = 24 - 2.5 = 21.5

c) 2(3t - 10) = 2(3 x 6 - 10) = 2(18 - 10) = 2 x 8 = 16

d) (t - 2)² = (6 - 2)² = 4² = 4 x 4 = 16

e) cannot decipher the equation

f) 6r + t = 6 x 2.5 + 6 = 15 + 6 = 21

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

3, in both a), b)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The slope of the line tangent to the curve that passes through the point (2,-10) is equal to the derivative of p at x=2.

Using differentiation rules (power rule and sum rule), the derivative of p(x) for any x is $p'(x)=3x^2-9$ . In particular, the value we are looking for is $p'(2)=3(2^2)-9=12-9=3$ .
