Distribute
-12 -6a = -48
Add 12 to isolate -6a
-6a = -36
Divide by -6 on both sides to isolate a
a = 6

I need help with this question

AVprozaik [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle formed at the circumference of the circle is half of the angle formed at the center of the same circle.

Hence,

$m\angle ADC = \frac{1}{2} \times m\angle ABC \\ \\ \therefore \: m\angle ADC = \frac{1}{2} \times 40 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \:m\angle ADC = 20 \degree \\ \\$

3. Formulate 900 lbs of a 35% CP ration using Soybean Meal (46% CP) and Oats (12% CP). How many pounds of soybean meal will be u

Anarel [89]

Answer:

The amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Soybean Meal has 46% CP and Oats has 12% CP.

The total amount of ration is 900 lbs of 35% CP.

Let x pounds of Soyabean has been used, so,

the amount of Oats = 900-x lbs.

The CP amount in 900 lbs mixture will be equal to the sum of CP amounts in x lbs Soyabean and 900-x lbs Oats, i.e

35% of 900 = 46% of x + 12% of (900-x)

$\Rightarrow \frac{35}{100}\times 900=\frac{46}{100}\times x+\frac{12}{100}\times (900-x)$

$\Rightarrow 35\times 900 = 46x + 12\times 900 - 12 x$

$\Rightarrow 34x= 900(35-12)$

$\Rightarrow x = (900\times 23)/34$

$\Rightarrow x = 608.82$ lbs.

So, the amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Ise the terms 4, 12a, 6, 2a, and 24 to make equivalent expressions

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

12a + 24 = 6(2a + 4) is the equivalent expressions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the terms ; 4, 12a, 6, 2a, and 24

There are two terms with unknown = 12a and 2a

but 12a = 2a x 6 .........(1)

from the last term = 24 = 6 x 4 ...........(2)

add both equation 1 and 2 = 12a + 24

12a + 24 = 6(2a + 4) is the equivalent expressions .

to VERIFY; Use a = 2

substitute into the expression ; LHS = RHS

= 12(2) + 24 = 24 + 24 = 48 (LHS)

FOR RHS = 6(2a+4) = 6(2x2 + 4)

= 6(4+4) = 48

Hence LHS = RHS
