Answer:

Hey there!

Let's pretend that there are only 9 people in that class. Thus, if 2/9 were women, then 2 people would be women.

Thus, 7 people would be men.

The ratio of men to women would be 7:2.

Hope this helps :)

The tree is 20 m tall .

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Given : </h2>
  • 2m tall tree cast a shadow 4 m long .

=> 2 m tree = 4 m long

If we find shadow of 1 m tall tree = 4/2

=> we have to find height of 10 m tall tree which is .. = 4/2 × 10 = > 20 m

What is the solution to 3(–3x + 9) = −18?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

x = 5 (If solved algebraically)

No Solution (If the parentheses are absolute value lines)

Step-by-step explanation:

Result when solving this way: 3|-3x + 9| = -18

1) Divide both sides by 3
|-3x + 9| = -18/3

2) Simplify 18/3 to 6

|-3x + 9| = -6

3)  Break down the problem into these 2 equations.

-3x + 9 = -6

- (-3x + 9) = -6

4) Solve the 1st equation: -3x + 9 = -6

- Subtract 1 from both sides.

-3x = -6 - 9

-Simplify -6 - 9 to -15.

-3x = -15

-Divide both sides by -3.

x = -15/-3

- Two negatives make a positive.

x = 15/3

- Simplify 15/3 to 5.

x = 5

6)  Solve the 2nd equation:  - (-3x+ 9) = -6

1 - Remove parentheses

3x - 9 = -6

2 - Add 9 to both sides

3x = -6 + 9

3 - Simplify -6 + 9 to 3.

3x = 3

- Divide both sides by 3.

x = 1

6) Collect all solutions.

x = 1,5

7) Check solution.

When x = 1, the original equation 3|-3x + 9| = -18 does not hold true.

We will drop x = 1 from the solution set.

8) Check solution.

When x = 5, the original equation 3|-3x + 9| = -18  does not hold true.

We will drop x = 5 from the solution set.

9) Therefore,

No solution exists.

Result when solving algebraically:

Simplifying

3(-3x + 9) = -18

Reorder the terms:

3(9 + -3x) = -18

(9 * 3 + -3x * 3) = -18

(27 + -9x) = -18

Solving

27 + -9x = -18

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-27' to each side of the equation.

27 + -27 + -9x = -18 + -27

Combine like terms: 27 + -27 = 0

0 + -9x = -18 + -27

-9x = -18 + -27

Combine like terms: -18 + -27 = -45

-9x = -45

Divide each side by '-9'.

x = 5

Simplifying

x = 5
