Answer:

19 red beads

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find a common denominator of 4/9, 1/5 and 1/4.

The common denominator is 180. Like in an expression, what we do to one side we have to do to the other.

Silver - 180/9 = 20 ; 20*4 = 80 so there are roughly 80 sliver beads.

Gold - 180/5 = 36 ; 36*1 = 36 so there are roughly 36 gold beads.

Blue - 180/4 = 45 ; 45*1 = 45 so there are roughly 56 blue beads.

180 - (silver+gold+blue) = red beads

180-161 = 19 red beads b/c ----->

80+36+45+19 = 180

Find the value of x
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(10/3)/5 = (x+1)/9

(10/3)9 = 5(x+1)

90/3 = 5x + 5

30 = 5x + 5

25 = 5x

x = 5

In Exercise, sketch the graph of the function.<br> f(x) = ln(x – 5)
Flauer [41]

Answer:

See the graph and explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function:

f(x) = ln(x-5)

The domain for this function is given by:

x-5 >0 since the natural log is not defined for negative numbers

x>5 , D = x \in (5,\infty)

We can calculate some points in order to see the tendency of the graph, we can select a set of points for example x =5.5, 6,7,8,9,10 and we can calculate the values for f(x) like this

x=5.5

f(x=5.5) = ln(5.5-5) = ln(0.5) =-0.693

x=6

f(x=6) = ln(6-5) = ln(1) =0

That represent the x intercept

x=7

f(x=7) = ln(7-5) = ln(2) =0.693

x=8

f(x=8) = ln(8-5) = ln(3) =1.099

x=9

f(x=6) = ln(9-5) = ln(4) =1.386

x=10

f(x=10) = ln(10-5) = ln(5) =1.609

And that represent the x intercept

And then we can see the plot on the figure attached.

How do i solve 7 + x /3 = 2x - 5
ExtremeBDS [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + x/3 =2x - 5

7 + 5=2x - x/3

12 = 5x/3

cross multiply

36=5x

x=36/5

x=7.2

Solve the given system by the substitution method. <br>3x + y = 8 <br>7x - 4y = 6​
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

{ \tt{y = 8 - 3x}} -  -  - (i) \\  \\  =  > 7x - 4(8 - 3x) = 6 \\ 7x - 32 + 12x = 6 \\ 19x - 32 = 6 \\ 19x = 38 \\ x = 2 \\  \\  =  > y = 8 - 3(2) \\ y = 2
