Mathematics

You can set up an equation based off of the information given:

x represents the unknown number

3/5x - 1 = 23

add 1 to both sides to isolate the 3/5x

3/5x = 24

divide both sides by 3/5 to solve for x

x = 120/3

120/3 can be simplified into 40

Final answer: x = 40

If h(-8), find 1/3*h(x) = x^2-5x+7
Lynna [10]

The value is 333

<h3>How to determine the function</h3>

From the information given, we have:

  • x = - 8
  • 1/3*h(x) = x^2-5x+7

Now, let's substitute the value of 'x' in the function:

1/3*h(x) = x^2-5x+7

1/ 3 × h(-8) = ( - 8)² - 5 ( -8) + 7

Make 'h ( -8)' the subject of formula

h ( -8) = \frac{( -8)^2 - 5(-8) + 7}{1/ 3}

h ( -8) = \frac{64 + 40+ 7 }{1/ 3}

Take the sum of the numerator

h ( -8) = \frac{111}{1/3}

Take the inverse of the denominator and multiply

h ( -8) = 111 × 3/ 1

h ( -8) = 333

We can see that through the substitute of the value of x as - 8, we get 333

Thus, the value is 333

Samantha deposit 300 in an account that earns an annual interest rate of 2.5 after nine months she computes the simple interest.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

She is doing a mistake of calculating interest after 9 months in place of after 12 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Samantha deposit $300 in an account that earns an annual interest rate of 2.5%.

Now, Samantha after nine months of deposit computes the simple interest.

She is doing a mistake of calculating interest after 9 months in place of after 12 months.

The calculation of interest should be on a yearly basis (i.e. 12 months) as the interest rate is 2.5% per year. (Answer)

What is the value of x and the measure of MNQ
serg [7]

Answer:

3x - 13 +58 = 90, so 3x +45 = 90

Then 3x = 90 - 45 = 45 and x= 45/3 = 15.

m∠MNQ = 3x-13 = 3(15) - 13

                             =  45-13

                             =   32
