5x+8=-27

8 more means addition. -27 would be total. 5 times the number ( in this case x) would mean multiplication.

A submarine dove at a rate of 18 feet per minute. What was the depth of the submarine after 15 minutes?

Juliette [100K]

So you’re basically multiplying 18 and 15. It’s going to be 270 ft

What is the mathematical relationship between the atomic radius (r) and the lattice parameter (a0) in the BCC structure? a. b. c

ryzh [129]

Answer: Lattice parameter, a = (4R)/(√3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The typical arrangement of atoms in a unit cell of BCC is shown in the first attachment.

The second attachment shows how to obtain the value of the diagonal of the base of the unit cell.

If the diagonal of the base of the unit cell = x

(a^2) + (a^2) = (x^2)

x = a(√2)

Then, diagonal across the unit cell (a cube) makes a right angled triangle with one side of the unit cell & the diagonal on the base of the unit cell.

Let the diagonal across the cube be y

Pythagoras theorem,

(a^2) + ((a(√2))^2) = (y^2)

(a^2) + 2(a^2) = (y^2) = 3(a^2)

y = a√3

But the diagonal through the cube = 4R (evident from the image in the first attachment)

y = 4R = a√3

a = (4R)/(√3)

Show work please<br> \sqrt(x+12)-\sqrt(2x+1)=1

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

$x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given $\displaystyle\\\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}=1$ , start by squaring both sides to work towards isolating $x$ :

$\displaystyle\\\left(\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}\right)^2=\left(1\right)^2$

Recall $(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$ and $\sqrt{a}\cdot \sqrt{b}=\sqrt{a\cdot b}$ :

$\displaystyle\\\left(\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}\right)^2=\left(1\right)^2\\\implies x+12-2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}+2x+1=1$

Isolate the radical:

$\displaystyle\\x+12-2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}+2x+1=1\\\implies -2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}=-3x-12\\\implies \sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}=\frac{-3x-12}{-2}$

Square both sides:

$\displaystyle\\(x+12)(2x+1)=\left(\frac{-3x-12}{-2}\right)^2$

Expand using FOIL and $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$ :

$\displaystyle\\2x^2+25x+12=\frac{9}{4}x^2+18x+36$

Move everything to one side to get a quadratic:

$\displaystyle-\frac{1}{4}x^2+7x-24=0$

Solving using the quadratic formula:

A quadratic in $ax^2+bx+c$ has real solutions $\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ . In $\displaystyle-\frac{1}{4}x^2+7x-24$ , assign values:

$\displaystyle \\a=-\frac{1}{4}\\b=7\\c=-24$

Solving yields:

$\displaystyle\\x=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{7^2-4\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)\left(-24\right)}}{2\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)}\\\\x=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{25}}{-\frac{1}{2}}\\\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{-7+5}{-0.5}=\frac{-2}{-0.5}=\boxed{4}\\x=\frac{-7-5}{-0.5}=\frac{-12}{-0.5}=24 \:(\text{Extraneous})\end{cases}$

Only $x=4$ works when plugged in the original equation. Therefore, $x=24$ is extraneous and the only solution is $\boxed{x=4}$
