Sample Response: The goal is to get x all alone. First combine like terms. Apply the addition property of equality to add 4 to both sides. Apply the division property of equality to divide both sides by 3. The result will be x = 4. Finally, check the solution by substituting 4 into the original equation.

We are given the function <span>–2x – 4 + 5x = 8  and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:

-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.

3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.</span>

aleksklad [387]
We are looking for the inner perimeter of the track. Since there are two semicircles, these mix to form one full circle so we can use the formula to find the circumference of the circle with a diameter of 60 m, which was given to us. With a diameter of 60m, the radius will be 30m. Now we can solve this problem.
C = 2πr
C = 2π(30)
C = 60π
The semicircle ends of the track are a distance of 60π m, and now we just need to add the lengths of the inner track which are 100 m each. So:
P = 60π + 100m + 100m
P = 200 + 60π
P = 388.5 m

Mr. Kohl has a breaker containing n milliliters of solution to distribute to the students in his chemistry class. If he gives ea
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Kohl has a "x" amount of solution, if he divides it by the number of students "n" he'll give each student 3 milliliters  and have a left over of 5 milliliters. If the amount of solution Mr. Kohl had was "x + 21" then he'd be able to give each student 4 milliliters of the solution. From these informations we have:

x = 3*n + 5

(x + 21)/n = 4

x + 21 = 4*n

x = 4*n - 21

Now that we have two equations and two variables we can solve the system of equations, as seen bellow:

3*n + 5 = 4*n - 21

3*n - 4*n = -21 - 5

-n = -26

n = 26

x = 4*26 - 21 = 83 ml

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.
