Find a number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite

Mathematics
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The number is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite ?

Solution :

Let the number be 'x'.

It's opposite is '-x'.

A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite

i.e. x - 12 = 3(-x)

Solving the equation,

x-12=-3x

x+3x=12

4x=12

x=\frac{12}{4}

x=3

Therefore, the number is 3.

The sum of 32 and 5 times a number is 17​
Mrrafil [7]

"Sum of 32 and 5 times a number " translates to:

(32 + 5) × n

Then, it says "is 17"

So, (32 + 5) × n = 17. Let's solve!

32 + 5 = 37

37 × n = 17

To find n, we just divide 17 by 37. However, that equates to a repeating decimal, so it is best to put the answer as:

\frac{17}{37}

Use Green's Theorem to evaluate the line integral along the given positively oriented curve.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

∫ C ( y + e√x) dx  +  ( 2x + cosy² ) dy = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: See Annex

Green Theorem establishes:

∫C ( Mdx  +  Ndy )  = ∫∫R ( δN/dx  -  δM/dy ) dA

Then

∫ C ( y + e√x) dx  +  ( 2x + cosy² ) dy

Here

M = 2x  + cosy²           δM/dy  =  1

N = y + e√x                 δN/dx  =  2

δN/dx  -  δM/dy  =  2  -  1   = 1

∫∫(R) dxdy   ∫∫ dxdy

Now integration limits  ( see Annex)

dy  is from   x  = y²    then     y = √x    to  y = x²   and for dx

dx   is from 0   to  1 then

∫ dy    = y | √x   ;   x²      ∫dy    =  x² - √x

And

∫₀¹ ( x² - √x ) dx    =  x³/3  - 2/3 √x |₀¹    =   1/3 - 0

∫ C ( y + e√x) dx  +  ( 2x + cosy² ) dy = 1/3

What is the solution set to log8(4x + 2) + 4 ≥ 5?
Oksanka [162]
Your answer is A

distribute the 8 to the 4x and 2 which gives you
=32x + 16 + 4 >_ 5
now you need to add the 16 and the 4
which leaves you with
=32x + 20 >_ 5
then subtract the 20 from both sides
then you have
=32x >_ -15
then divide 32 from both sides with gives you
x>_ -15/32 or x>_ -0.5
