What is wrong with this question if K =4 then 3k+5=39

Mathematics

3k+5=-39

3(4)+5=-39
12+5=-39
17=-39

well 17 doesnt equal -39. the variable provided is wrong!

3k+5=-39
3k = -44
k = -14.66666667

so .... k should have been solved for instead of just plugging in a number!

You can tell it's wrong by plugging in 4 for K like so:
3(4) + 5 = 39

12 + 5 = 39

17 = 39

By looking at this you can tell it's false because 17 is not equal to 39.


I hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!

the amount of a persons paycheck p varies directly with the numbers of hours worked t. for 16 hours of work, the paycheck is $12
nekit [7.7K]
Given: 

Let t = number of hours worked
Let p = money in the paycheck

And the relationship between the two variables varies DIRECTLY, thus they are equated with one another. 

Well anyway, you can write this simple equation for their relationship:

16t=124p

Then you derive if you want to get the number of hours or the amount paid:

1) 16t/16= 124p
t = 124p/16
t=7.75p

or 

2) 124p=16t
124p/124= 16t/124
p = 0.129t

∠A and ∠B are complementary. If ∠A= 32 find m∠B.
rewona [7]

Answer:

Your answer is 58

Step-by-step explanation:

This is true because complementary means both angles add to 90 degrees. So if you know one is 32 then you subtract 90-32 which will give you 58 (angle B).

Show how to solve 6/15=2/?
Bas_tet [7]
<u></u>There are two way sof doing this question: 
 <em><u>1st solution  is : </u></em>
<em> </em><u><em>6/15 = 2/</em></u><u /><em><u>5</u>
</em>because 6/15 is divisible by 3 and it is done by this form : 
     3 X 2 = 6
       and
    3 X 5 = 15
<em><u>2nd solution is:
</u></em><u></u>6/15 = 2/?
here we suppose that the missing value is <em>x:
</em> 6/15 = 2/x
 
 you shift the denominators and then  multiply them by the their numerators:
 6 * x = 15 * 2
      6x = 30
 now you divide 6 on both sides:
<em> </em>6x/6 = 30/6
      <em><u>x = 5</u></em><em>
</em>
