Solve for x: 5x + 6 = 8x + 12

Mathematics
1 answer:
ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 8x from both sides.

5x+6−8x=8x+12−8x

−3x+6=12

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−3x+6−6=12−6

−3x=6

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

6

−3

x=−2

How do I simplify the following to "a+bi" form: (1+2i)^3
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Expand it.

(1+2i)^3 is equal to (1+2i)(1+2i)(1+2i).

Multiply everything out (being sure to multiply <em>every</em> term. (1+2i) * (1+2i) = 1+2i+2i+4i^2.

i is the square root of negative one, so i^2 is just -1. 1+2i+2i-4 is what you get from the first two, so now simplify that:

1-4 + 2i+2i = (-3+4i) and now multiply that by (1+2i):

(-3+4i) * (1+2i) = -3 - 6i +4i +8i^2.

Simplify again, and the answer is: -11-2i

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps - really my only tip is don't spend time thinking about what i is, that just hurts your brain. Just remember that i^2 is equal to negative one, and treat it like regular multiplication and you will be fine.

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2-14x+6/x^3-7x^2+12x

2(2x^2-7x+3)/x(x^2-7x+12)

2(2x^2-6x-x+3)/x(x^2-4x-3x+12)

2(x-3)(2x-1)/x(x-4)(x-3)

Thallium-210 has a half-life of 1.32 minutes. Find an equation for the percent of Thallium-210 sample that remains after t minut
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

  p(t) = 100%·2^(-t/1.32)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for exponential decay is ...

  (remaining amount) = (initial amount)·2^(-t/(half-life))

Here, we can represent the percentage remaining by p(t) and the initial amount by 100%. Then, for a half-life of 1.32 minutes, the amount remaining is ...

  p(t) = 100%·2^(-t/1.32) . . . . . where t is in minutes

_____

Alternate functional forms are possible, such as ...

  p(t) = 100%·e^(-0.525112t)

  p(t) = 100%·0.591489^t

How do you do this question?
ankoles [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

S = ∫ 2π y ds

ds = √(1 + (dx/dy)²) dy

ds = √(1 + (8y)²) dy

ds = √(1 + 64y²) dy

S = ∫₁² 2π y √(1 + 64y²) dy

S = π/64 ∫₁² 128y √(1 + 64y²) dy

S = π/64 [⅔ (1 + 64y²)^(³/₂)] |₁²

S = π/96 (1 + 64y²)^(³/₂) |₁²

S = π/96 (1 + 256)^(³/₂) − π/96 (1 + 64)^(³/₂)

S = π/96 (257√257) − π/96 (65√65)

S = π/96 (257√257 − 65√65)
