-13 times the difference between a number and 60 is equal to the number plus -59

1 answer:

8 0

Let n represent the number.
-13×(n -60) = n +(-59)
-13n +780 = n -59
839 = 14n
839/14 = n = 59 13/14

The number is 59 13/14.

_____
Check
The difference between the number and 60 is
59 13/14 -60 = -1/14
-13 times that value is
-13*(-1/14) = 13/14
Compare that to the number plus -59
59 13/14 -59 = 13/14 . . . . . the same value, as required.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Well, remember
(ab)(cd)=abcd=(ac)(bd)
so
(8t^5)(8t^5)=(8)(t^5)(8)(t^5)=(8*8)(t^5*t^5)=64t^10

Answer:

BC ≈ 8.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos36° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BC}{AB}$ = $\frac{BC}{11}$ ( multiply both sides by 11 )

11 × cos36° = BC , then

BC ≈ 8.9 ( to the nearest tenth )

Solve: x2 − x − 6/x2 = x − 6/2x + 2x + 12/x After multiplying each side of the equation by the LCD and simplifying, the resultin

Vesna [10]

The resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

According to the given question.

We have an equation

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x-6}{2x} +\frac{2x+12}{x}$

So, to find the resulting equation of the above equation we need to simplify.

First we will take LCD

$\frac{x^{2} -x - 6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x -6+2(2x + 12)}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } =\frac{x-6+4x+24}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{5x +18}{2x}$

Multiply both the sides by x.

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x} = \frac{5x+18}{2}$

Again multiply both the sides by x

$2x^{2} -2x-12 = 5x^{2} +18x$

$\implies 5x^{2} -2x^{2} +18x +2x +12 = 0$

$\implies 3x^{2} + 18x+2x + 12 = 0$

Factorize the above equation

⇒3x(x+6)+2(x+6) = 0

⇒(3x + 2)(x+6) = 0

⇒ x = -2/3 or x = -6

Hence, the resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

8/10x 1 3/5 =? would be what?

Aleonysh [2.5K]

8/10 x 1 3/5 = ?
first u need to find the mixed fraction is 8/5: 1 3/5 = 8/5
8/10 x 8/5 = 64/50
64/50 in simplest form: 32/25
32/25 equals to 1 7/25
so the answer is 1 and 7/25
