Answer:

a = 8/29 thus: Step 1 is wrong!

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for a:

8 - a/2 = 3 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Put the fractions in 8 - a/2 over a common denominator.

Put each term in 8 - a/2 over the common denominator 2: 8 - a/2 = 16/2 - a/2:

16/2 - a/2 = 3 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Combine 16/2 - a/2 into a single fraction.

16/2 - a/2 = (16 - a)/2:

(16 - a)/2 = 3 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Make (16 - a)/2 = 3 (4 - 5 a) simpler by multiplying both sides by a constant.

Multiply both sides by 2:

(2 (16 - a))/2 = 2×3 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (2 (16 - a))/2.

(2 (16 - a))/2 = 2/2×(16 - a) = 16 - a:

16 - a = 2×3 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Multiply 2 and 3 together.

2×3 = 6:

16 - a = 6 (4 - 5 a)

Hint: | Write the linear polynomial on the left hand side in standard form.

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

16 - a = 24 - 30 a

Hint: | Move terms with a to the left hand side.

Add 30 a to both sides:

30 a - a + 16 = (30 a - 30 a) + 24

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

30 a - 30 a = 0:

30 a - a + 16 = 24

Hint: | Group like terms in 30 a - a + 16.

Grouping like terms, 30 a - a + 16 = (-a + 30 a) + 16:

(-a + 30 a) + 16 = 24

Hint: | Combine like terms in 30 a - a.

30 a - a = 29 a:

29 a + 16 = 24

Hint: | Isolate terms with a to the left hand side.

Subtract 16 from both sides:

29 a + (16 - 16) = 24 - 16

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

16 - 16 = 0:

29 a = 24 - 16

Hint: | Evaluate 24 - 16.

24 - 16 = 8:

29 a = 8

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 29 a = 8 by 29:

(29 a)/29 = 8/29

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

29/29 = 1:

Answer: a = 8/29

Answer:

There are 327,811 doctors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of female doctors = 16.9%

Number of female doctors = 55,400

Percentage of Male doctors = 100-16.9%

                                               =83.1%

So if 55,400 doctors are represented by 16.9 how many doctors are represented by 100%?

100% represents total number of doctors.

⇒\frac{55,400}{16.9} \times100

=327,810.65

Number of doctors has to be a whole number so we rounf off the number to nearest whole number:

Therefore there are 327,811 doctors.

write the equation of a line that passes through the points (5, -7) and is perpendicular to the line -2x + 6y = -4
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

y= -3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Put -2x + 6y = -4 into slope-interceltp form

Take the negative reciprocal of the slope.

Use this reciprocal in point-slope form

and you have,

= y= -3x + 8

<em>(EDITED)</em> Steps:

2x+6y = -4

6y=2x - 4

y= 1/3x + 2/3

if two lines are perpendicular,

m1 * m2 + -1

1/3 * m2 = -1

m2 = -3

the line perpendicular to this line is

y = -3x + k ; k ∈ R

the line passes through the point (5,-7)

so,

-7 = -3. (5) +k

-7 = -15 + k

k = 8

∴the equation of a line that passes through the point (5,-7) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+6y=-4 is

y= -3x + 8

Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D

Two bags of apples weigh 8.4 pounds.How many bags of apples will fit in a box with a 50 pound weight limit?
Marizza181 [45]
11, one bag of apples is 4.2 lbs. (8.4 lbs divided by 2 = 4.2 lbs) it can’t be 12 because 12 bags of apples is 50.4 lbs which exceeds the limit, therefore it has to be 11 bags of apples.
