-1.398 = 2.2 + n/-5.53 Does this look good so far? -1398 = 2200 + n/5530 - 2200

Mathematics

Answer:

  n = 19.89694

Step-by-step explanation:

You can work the problem using decimal numbers. There is no need to convert everything to integers. Trying to do so just gets you in trouble.

Subtract 2.2 from both sides:

  -1.398 -2.200 = n/-5.53

  -3.598 = n/-5.53

Now, multiply both sides by -5.53:

  (-5.53)(-3.598) = n = 19.89694

_____

The one rule that cannot be violated in algebra is that <em>you must do the same thing to both sides of the equation</em>.

_____

Your "solution" so far has a couple of errors. The first is that you have apparently multiplied all of the numbers by 1000. Unfortunately, when you multiply a denominator by 1000, it is the same as dividing by 1000. So, you have multiplied the left side by 1000, multiplied one term on the right by 1000 and divided another term on the right by 1000. This turns the equation into something different than what you started with, and will give a wrong answer.

The second error is that you have subtracted 2200 only from the right side. This, too, will turn the equation into something different than what you started with, and will give a wrong answer.

3. There are 124 acorns laying on the ground in your yard, it is predicted that the number of acorns will
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

507,409

Step-by-step explanation:

if every 5 days the number quadruples (x4), and we want to know how many acorns fall after 30 days, we can divide 30 by 5 so we only have to calculate for the amount of time the take to quadruple.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

so we only have to quadruple the acorns 6 times.

if we start off with 124 acorns, this is what it will look like:

Day 0: 124 acorns

Day 5: 124 x 4 = 496 acorns

Day 10: 496 x 4 = 1984 acorns

Day 15: 1984 x 4 = 7936 acorns

etc... until day 30.

Day 30: 507904 acorns

I hope this was helpful :-)

If f(t)=3t^2+11 find f(7)
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

f(7) = 158

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(7) substitute t = 7 into f(t)

f(7) = 3(7)² + 11 = (3 × 49) + 11 = 147 + 11 = 158

HELP PLEASE!! I DONT UNDERSTAND!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH
8090 [49]

Hello, please consider the following.

We will multiply the numerator and denominator by

4+\sqrt{6x}

to get rid of the root in the denominator.

First of all, we cannot divide by 0, right? So, we need to make sure that the denominator is different from 0.

4-\sqrt{6x} =0\sqrt{6x}=4\\\\\text{Take the square}\\\\6x=4^2=16\\\\x=\dfrac{16}{6}=\dfrac{8}{3}

We need to take any x real number different from 8/3 then and simplify the expression.

Let's do it!

\begin{aligned}\dfrac{4}{4-\sqrt{6x}}&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(4+\sqrt{6x})(4-\sqrt{6x})}\\\\&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(4^2-\sqrt{6x}^2)}\\\\&=\dfrac{4(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(16-6x)}\\\\&=\dfrac{2(4+\sqrt{6x})}{(8-3x)}\\\\&\large \boxed{=\dfrac{8+2\sqrt{6x}}{8-3x}}\end{aligned}

Thank you

Harry worked 7 hours last week this is one third as many hours as Aiden work how many hours did Aiden work
Eduardwww [97]
21 hrs. Because if Harry worked one third the hrs thats Aiden worked then 7×3 =21 and 21÷3=7. So 7 is one third of 21.
