5(–2 + x) = 35 Solve for x.

1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The value of x is equal to 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, we need to perform the distributive property.

5(-2 + x)  =  5 * -2 + 5 * x  =  -10 + 5x.

Now we have -10 + 5x = 35.

So next we need to isolate 5x by adding 10 to each side of the equation.

-10 + 5x = 35 + 10  =  5x  =  45.

The last step is to divide each side by 5.

5x/5 = 45/5.

And the final answer is x = 9.

You can also plug in 9 into the original equation.

5(-2 + 9) = 35.

5(7) = 35.

35 = 35.

What is the cost of operating a 3.00-w electric clock for a year if the cost of electricity is $0.0900 per kw · h ?
brilliants [131]
We must take into account the following change of units:
 1kw = 1000w

1 year = 365 days

1 day = 24 hours
 Applying the change of units we have that the electric consumption for 1 year is given by:
 (3) * (1/1000) * (365) * (24) = 26.28 kw * h

 Then, the total cost is given by:
 (26.28) * (0.0900) = 2.3652

 Answer:
 
the cost of operating a 3.00-w electric clock for a year is:
 
$ 2.3652

Please help me thank you so much. Just not sure of my answers

Answer:

An interesting experiment is given. We need to address various questions based on our knowledge of calculus.

Step 2

Part (a)

Time taken for the radius to grow to 2 cm = t1 = r/0.5 = 2/0.5 = 4 hours

Time taken for the radius to become 0 = t2 and the same can be obtained by solving:

r = 2 - √t2 = 0

Hence, t2 = 22 = 4 hours

Hence, the time duration of the entire experiment (from the introduction of the bacteria until its disappearance) = t1 + t2 = 4 + 4 = 8 hours

Step 3

Part (b)

r(t) = 0.5t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4

and

r(t) = 2 - √(t - 4) for t > 2
