Hello!

To solve algebraic equation, we will need to use the acronym SADMEP.

SADMEP is similar to PEMDAS, but it is strictly used for solving algebraic equations. Expanded, it is subtract, addition, division, multiplication, exponents, and then parentheses.

Looking at SADMEP, we see that subtract/addition comes first, then division/multiplication, and then exponents/parentheses.

In our equation, our goal is to isolate the variable, "x". Since we have two constants, -3 and 11, and -3 is on the side with the variable, we can add -3 to both sides of the equation first.

Therefore, the first operation needed to solve the equation is addition.

... because you divide the time but the distance so for this question you divide 22.5 by 5 and that's your answer. do the same for every question! hope this helps.

NO SCAM. PLEASE SHOW WORK. WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO CORRECT ANSWER.

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

$140$

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon is a shape with equal sides and angles. Because of this, we can write the following equation to set two sides equal to each other:

$3a+b+3=2a+2b+6$

Solving, we will get a in terms of b:

$3a=2a+b+3,\\a=b+3$

Now we can substitute a for (b+3) into our equation:

$5a-2b+1=2a+2b+6,\\5(b+3)-2b+1=2(b+3)+2b+6,\\3b+16=4b+12,\\-b=-4,\\b=\boxed{4}$

Therefore, the length of each side of this polygon is $5(4+3)-2(4)+1=28$ .

Since the perimeter of the polygon consists of all five sides, the perimeter is:

$p=28\cdot 5 =\boxed{140}$

Dos motos, A y B, toman la salida en una carrera de 90 km. La moto A realiza el recorrido con una velocidad media inferior en 20

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

motorcycle A: 180 km/h

motorcycle B: 200 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we need to write a system of equations for A and B, using the equation:

distance = speed * time

The speed of A is 20 less than the speed of B, so:

speedA = speedB - 20

And the time A traveled is 3 minutes (0.05 hours) more than B's time, so:

timeA = timeB + 0.05

Then, using the distance equation, we have that:

distanceB = speedB * timeB

90 = speedB * timeB

distanceA = speedA * timeA

90 = (speedB - 20) * (timeB + 0.05)

90 = speedB * timeB + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

90 = 90 + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

20*timeB = 0.05 * speedB - 1

timeB = (speedB - 20)/400

using this timeB in the distance equation, we have:

90 = speedB * (speedB - 20)/400

90 * 400 = speedB^2 - 20*speedB

speedB^2 - 20*speedB - 36000 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation, we have speedB = 200 km/h

And the speedA is:

speedA = speedB - 20 = 200 - 20 = 180 km/h

In the exponential growth function y = 235(1.15)^x, what is the

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: Growth factor will be 0.15 and percent increase will be 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

the exponential growth function

$y=235(1.15)^x$

1) We need to find the growth factor :

As we know the formula for "Compound Interest ":

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^x$

If we compare the formula with our given equation, we get

$1+\frac{r}{100}=1.15\\\\\frac{r}{100}=1.15-1\\\\\frac{r}{100}=0.15\\\\r=0.15\times 100\\\\r=15$

So, the growth factor is at the rate of 0.15.

2) Percent increase will be

$0.15=\frac{15}{100}\times 100\\\\=15\%$

Hence, growth factor will be 0.15 and percent increase will be 15%.
