Answer: -3x-6=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

The proccedure shown in the problem is applied to solve for x and calculate its value.

One of the equations shown in the problem is:

-3x-6=-9

To solve for x you must_

- Add 6 to both sides of the equations:

-3x-6+6=-9+6

-3x=-3

- Then you must divide by -3:

\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-3}{-3} \\x=1

Then the answer is: -3x-6=-9

Answer:

1/64, 1/256, 1/1024

Step-by-step explanation:

To get from 16 to 4 we multiply by 1/4

To get from 4 to 1 we multiply by 1/4

Each time we multiply by 1/4

The next term would be 1/16 * 1/4

1/16 * 1/4 = 1/64

The take that term 1/64 and multiply by 1/4

1/64*1/4 = 1/256

Finally take 1/256 and multiply by 1/4

1/256*1/4 =1/1024

It was recently estimated that females outnumber males by about three or two. If there are 1770 people in a county, how many of
max2010maxim [7]

GIVEN

1) Females outnumber males by 3 to 2.

2) There are 1770 people in the city.

SOLUTION

Let the number of males be x and the number of females y. Therefore, the total number of people can be written to be:

x+y=1770\text{   -----------(1)}

If there are 3 females for every 2 males, we have that:

\begin{gathered} \frac{y}{3}=\frac{x}{2} \\ \therefore \\ x=\frac{2y}{3}\text{   ----------(2)} \end{gathered}

We can substitute equation (2) into equation (1) and solve for y:

\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{3}y+y=1770 \\ \frac{2y+3y}{3}=1770 \\ 5y=1770\times3 \\ 5y=5310 \end{gathered}

Dividing both sides by 5, we have

y=1062

There are 1062 females in the county.
