Solving equations and Inequalities 1 ) -10p=2(p-12)

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is 2 = p
Explanation: Here the goal is to get the variable "p" by itself, so first your have to distribute 2 to (p-12) which gives you -10p = 2p-24. Then you add 10p on both sides so that the variable is on one side. Then you add 24 to both sides. After that you divide 12 from both sides, giving you 2 = P

-10P = 2(p-12)
-10p = 2p-24
+10p +10p
0 = 12p-24
+24 +24
24 = 12p
24÷12 = 12p÷12
2 = p

DiKsa [7]

Answer: 6 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise let "x" represents your present age.

According to the information provided in the exercise, you know that In three years, Chad will be three times your present age.

Then, your age in three years can be represented with the following expression:

$x+3$

Knowing at that time Chad's age will be three times yours and you will be half as old as old as Chad, you can write the following equation to represent this situation:

$x+3=\frac{3x}{2}$

Therefore, the final step is to solve for "x" in order to find its value.

You get that this is:

$2(x+3)=3x\\\\2x+6=3x\\\\6=3x-2x\\\\x=6$

3. if you want to represent geologic time with a 24-hour clock, how many years would be represented by a single second, minute a

Amanda [17]

In geologic time scale a single second = 52,083.3 years, a minute = 3,125,000 years, an hour = 187.5 million years

Geologic time, the extensive interval of time occupied by the geologic history of Earth. Formal geologic time begins at the start of the Archean Eon (4.0 billion to 2.5 billion years ago) and continues to the present day.

So the geologic time scale (GTS) contains different ranks of times about Earth, obviously you know this already. However, the GTS has these different ranks in order from shortest length of time to longest length of time.

The Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. We want to convert this geological time in a period of 24 hours. So, if 24 hours correspond to 4.5 billion years, then, 1 Hour= 4.5 billion / 24=187.5 million years. There are 60 minutes in an hour ∴ 1 minute =187.5 million /60=3,125,000 years finally, one second has 60 seconds ∴ 1 second=3,125,000 / 60 = 52,083.3 year.
