Solve each equation. 7(1 +4n) - 5=-38 + 8n

Mathematics
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B) n=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute.

7(1+4n)-5=-38+8n

7+28n-5=-38+8n

Combine like terms.

2+28n=-38+8n

To make solving the equation easier, subtract 8n first, so there isn't a negative variable.

2+28n=-38+8n

  <u>-8n           -8n</u>

2+20n=-38

Subtract 2 on both sides.

2+20n=-38

<u>-2          -2</u>

20n=-40

Divide by 20 on both sides.

20n=-40

<u>/20   /20</u>

n=-2

Hope this helps!! Have a wonderful day :3

A rectangular piece of plywood has a diagonal which measures two feet more than the width. The length of the plywood is twice th
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The length of the diagonal = 3.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets change the story problem to equation to solve it

- Diagonal in a rectangle is the line which joining two

 opposite vertices in it

- The diagonal , the length and the width formed together right

  angle triangle where the diagonal is the hypotenuse of the

  triangle and the length, the width are the two legs of the

  right angle

- The length of the diagonal d is √(l² + w²) ⇒ Pythagoras theorem

∴ d² = l² + w²

- The diagonal is 2 feet more than the width

∴ d = w + 2

- The length is twice the width

∴ l = w

* Lets substitute the value of d and l in the equation of Pythagoras

∴ (w + 2)² = (2w)² + w² ⇒ solve the bracket

∴ w² + 4w + 4 = 4w² + w² ⇒ collect them in one side and add like term

∴ 4w² + w² - w² - 4w - 4 = 0 ⇒ add the like term

∴ 4w² - 4w - 4 = 0 ⇒ divide all term by 4

∴ w² - w - 1 = 0 ⇒ solve the quadratic using the formula

- In ax² + bx + c = 0

 x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

∵ a = 1 , b = -1 , c = -1

∴ x=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{(-1)^{2}-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}=1.6feet

-The value of the width is 1.6 feet

∴ The length = 1.6 × 2 = 3.2 feet

∴ The length of the diagonal = 2 + 1.6 = 3.6 feet

One day Akash walked 2/3 km from home to school .On his return he took another route which was 3/5 km long .How many km did Akas
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Akash walked 1\frac{4}{15} kilometers in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance covered while walking to school = 2/3 km

Distance covered while walking back = 3/5 km

We will add the distance.

Total distance walked = \frac{2}{3}+\frac{3}{5}

Total distance walked = \frac{10+9}{15}

Total distance walked = \frac{19}{15}=1\frac{4}{15}\ km

Hence,

Akash walked 1\frac{4}{15} kilometers in all.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

3 41-cent stamps and 8 6-cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe she used 3 41-cent stamps (which is $1.23) with $0.48 leftover which we can use $0.06 to get rid of. We need to use 8 of the $0.06 stamps.
