Solve the equation and justify each step. 8.2 - 9 = 7x + 6 - 2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-9=7x+6-2x

We move all terms to the left:

8x-9-(7x+6-2x)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

8x-(5x+6)-9=0

We get rid of parentheses

8x-5x-6-9=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x-15=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

3x=15

x=15/3

x = 5

m x H = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-25&37.5&-12.5\\\9\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Multiply 5 with this matrix  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&2\\4&8\\\end{array}\right] and we get a matrix \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-5&10\\20&40\\\end{array}\right]

Multiply the fraction  \frac{2}{5} with the matrix  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&2\\4&8\\\end{array}\right] and we get \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-\frac{2m}{5} &\frac{4m}{5} \\\frac{8m}{5} &\frac{16m}{5} \\\end{array}\right]

Step2; Now equate corresponding values of the matrices with each other.

-5 = \frac{-2m}{5} and so on. By equating we get the value of m as \frac{25}{2}

Step 3; Add the matrices to get the value of matrix m.

Adding the three matrices on the RHS we get  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&9&-9\\\end{array}\right].

Step 4; Adding the matrices on the LHS we get the resulting matrix as H +

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&6&-8\\\9\end{array}\right]. Equating the matrices from step 3 and 4 we get the value of H as \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&-1\\\9\end{array}\right]

Step 5; Now to find the value of m x H we need to multiply the value of \frac{25}{2} with the matrix \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&-1\\\9\end{array}\right]

Step 6; Multiplying we get the matrix m x H = [ -25  \frac{75}{2}  \frac{-25}{2} ]

In 1987 Babe Ruth has a record setting season in which he hit 60 home runs for New York Yankees. If babe Ruth continues at the s
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

If he maintains the same rate he'll hit 180 home runs over the next three seasons.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he maintains the same rate of homeruns per season as he did in 1987 the number of home runs he'll hit over the next three seasons is the rate from 1987 multiplied by 3. We have:

number of home runs = 3*rate

number of home runs = 3*60

number of home runs = 180

If he maintains the same rate he'll hit 180 home runs over the next three seasons.
