Answer:

x=34.8

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing you gotta do is distribute the parenthesis.

2(x-3)= 2x-6

7(x+24)=7x+168

2x-6=7x+168

Next, we simplify our equation and subtract 6 from both sides, along with subtracting 7x from both sides.

2x-6=7x+168

+6 +6

2x=7x+174

-7x -7x

-5x=174

Our final step is to divide both sides by -5.

$\frac{-5x=174}{-5}$

x=34.8

Answer:

x = -34.8

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>solve the equation</u></h2>

2(x-3)

= 2x - 6

7(x + 24 )

= 7x + 168

put the equation together

2x - 6 = 7x + 168

now make x subject of formula:

2x - 7x = 168 +6

-5x = 174

x = 174/ -5

Simplify;<br> 26 ⋅ 26^8<br><br> Please also explain how you got the answer.

26 ⋅ 26^8

Multiply by adding the exponents:

Raise 26 to the power of 1 to get:

26^1 * 26^8

Now when you multiply the same number raised to different powers, you add the powers together:

26^1 * 26^8 = 26^(8+1) = 26^9

So 26 * 26^8 simplifies is 26^9

Data:
r (radius) = 14 m
h (height) = 6 m
v (volume) = ?

Formula:
$V = \pi *r^2*h$

Solving:
$V = \pi *r^2*h$
$V = \pi *14^2*6$
$V = \pi *196*6$
$\boxed{\boxed{V = 1176 \pi\:m^3}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

I’m pretty sure it’s x=10 because
8x + 50 = 130
So we would subtract 50 from both sides so it would be 8x = 130 - 50 then it would give us 80 so now we have 8x =80, now we will need to divide the 8 on both sides to get x, so 80/8 equals 10

Answer:

119.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Mean (m) = 100 years

Standard deviation (sd) = 15 years

closest to the age of a Galápagos Islands giant tortoise at the 90th percentile of the

distribution?

Obtain the Zscore for 90th percentile (0.90) on the z table = 1.28

Zscore = (X - mean) / standard deviation

1.28 = (X - 100) / 15

1.28 × 15 = X - 100

19.2 = X - 100

19.2 + 100 = X

X = 119.2
