To solve this equation from the information given above, I ordered it 5x+12=8x. To solve, I subtracted 5x from each side, canceling the 5x to your left, leaving only the number 12. 8x minus 5x equals 3x. Take 3x and divide on both sides. 3x/3x cancels the 3, leaving 12/3 equals 4. Finally, x equals 4.

In a weightless environment, an astronaut lose about 1.5% calcium in their bodies per month. Suppose some astronauts flew to Mar

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

12.3 months

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the number of months (m) such that ...

1 - 17% = (1 -1.5%)^m

Taking logarithms:

log(0.83) = m·log(0.985)

m = log(0.83)/log(0.985) ≈ 12.3 . . . . months

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in this circle.

Alecsey [184]

The sum of all interior angles in a polygon is

180(n-2), where n = sides, well, this is a QUADrilateral, so it has 4 sides, so the total is 360°.

now, let's find what angle C is first,

$\bf \stackrel{A}{(2x-40)}+\stackrel{B}{(116)}+C+\stackrel{D}{(x)}=360\implies C+3x+76=360
\\\\\\
C+3x=284\implies C=284-3x$

now, recall the "inscribed quadrilateral conjecture", where opposite angles are "supplementary angles", thus

$\bf \stackrel{\measuredangle A}{(2x-40)}+\stackrel{\measuredangle C}{(284-3x)}=180\implies -x+244=180
\\\\\\
64=x\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\measuredangle A=2(64)-40$

Adding the equations to eliminate p would be the correct step because when you add the equations together, the variable p would cancel out and be eliminated leaving you with 2w=35 you can then solve for the value of w which you can then input to find the value of p, allowing you to solve for the values of both p and w.
