Multiplication property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the equation

-\frac{3}{8}x=48

We have to find the property which was applied to solve the equation.

-\frac{3}{8}x=48

Reason: Given

Multiply by -8/3 on both sides

-\frac{8}{3}\times -\frac{3}{8}x=-\frac{8}{3}\times 48

By using multiplication property of equality.

x=\frac{-384}{3}

After simplification

x=-128

Can you help me find the volume base area latera area and total area please to this problem
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

BA = 25π,

LA = 25√2π,

TA = 25π + 25√2π,

V = 41 and 2 / 3π

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine the height here, as it is not given, and is quite important to us. The height is a perpendicular line segment to the radius, hence forming a 45 - 45 - 90 degree triangle as you can see. Therefore, by " Converse to Base Angles Theorem " the height should be equal in length to the radius,

( Height = 5 inches = Radius

______

Now knowing the height, let's begin by calculating the base area. By it's name, we have to find the area of the base. As it is a circle, let us apply the formula " πr^2 "

\pi r^2\\= \pi ( 5 )^2\\= 25\pi - Base Area = 25π

______

The lateral area is simply the surface area excluding the base area, the surface area having a formula of " πr^2 + πrl. " Thus, the lateral area can be calculated through the formula " πrl, " but as we are not given the slant height ( l ) we have to use another formula, l= \sqrt{r^2+h^2} -

\pi r( \sqrt{r^2+h^2} )\\= \pi( 5 )( \sqrt{5^2 + 5^2} )\\= 25\sqrt{2} \pi- Lateral Area = 25√2π

______

And the surface area is the base area + lateral area -

25\pi + 25\sqrt{2} \pi - Surface Area

______

The volume of a cone is 1 / 3rd that of a cylinder, with a simple formula of Base * height. Therefore, we can conclude the following -

1 / 3( 25\pi )( 5 )\\= 25 / 3( 5 )( \pi )\\= 41 \frac{2}{3}\pi- Volume = 41 and 2 / 3π

Is y=7.5x a proportional relationship and why
DerKrebs [107]
Direct Proportion functions look like this:

y=kx

'k' is the constant of proportionality and in this case its 7.5 or 15/2.

--------------------------------------------

When x=1, y=7.5
When x=2, y=15
When x=3, y=22.5

Therefore y is directly proportional to x.

--------------------------------------

DIRECT PROPORTION EXPLAINED:

Say a football costs £7.50. If you buy one football you'll have to pay out £7.50, but if you you buy two footballs you'll have to pay out £15.00. Therefore the cost of the football(s) is directly proportional to the amount of footballs you buy. C=cost, f=football(s) and C<span>∝f, therefore C=kf, but as k=7.5, C=7.5f.

INVERSE PROPORTION EXPLAINED:

If it were to take 8 hours for one bricklayer to set up a wall, how long would it take for two bricklayers to set up a wall? The answer in this case would be 4 hours.

T=time to set up a wall
b=bricklayer(s)

Therefore T</span><span>∝1/b, and T=k/b. In this case k=8 so T=8/b.

When b=1, T=8.
When b=2, T=4.

We'd say that the time it would take for bricklayers to set up a wall would be inversely proportional to the amount of bricklayers available.</span>

Jocelyn and her children went into a bakery and she bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.50 and each br
Yuliya22 [10]

Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.

Let x represent the number of cookies and y represent the number of brownies.

Since he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. hence:

0.75x + 3y = 9      (1)

Also, he bought twice as many cookies as brownies, hence:

x = 2y

x - 2y = 0     (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives x = 4, y = 2

Hence Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

2x-3y=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point-slope formula given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The given line passes through the

point (-3,2) and having slope m=\frac{2}{3}.

We substitute the given point and slope to get:

y-2=\frac{2}{3}(x--3)

y-2=\frac{2}{3}(x+3)

we clear the fraction to get;

3y-6=2(x+3)

3y-6=2x+6

3y-2x=6+6

3y-2x=12

Or in standard form:

2x-3y=-12

Describe and correct the error a student made in writing an exponential function
NemiM [27]

Answer:

we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,as given in the question:

Starting value = 6

Constant ratio = 1/3

Now, exponential function is obtained by the product of starting value and the constant ratio repeatedly.

⇒ f(x) = (Starting value) x (ratio)... x times

\implies f(x) = 6 (\frac{1}{3} )^x =  6 (\frac{1}{3} )  (\frac{1}{3} )  (\frac{1}{3} )  .... x  

Now, we CANNOT DIVIDE 3 with 6 as it is in the power of x.

Hence, \implies f(x) = 6 (\frac{1}{3} )^x and f(x)  \neq 2^x
