The sum of twice a number and 5 less than the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

2x + (x-5) = x - 17

2x + x - 5 = x - 17

3x - x = -17 + 5

2x = -12

: x = -12/2

x = -6

5<br>3х - 10<br>15. х - 3x —<br>10<br>x-(3x -<br>3​
Levart [38]

Answer:

3 - 151 x

Step-by-step explanation:

d/dx(5×3 x - 10×15 x - 3 x - 10 x - (3 x - 3)) = -151

Indefinite integral:

integral(3 - 151 x) dx = 3 x - 75.5 x^2 + constant

Definite integral after subtraction of diverging parts:

integral_0^∞ ((3 - 151 x) - (3 - 151 x)) dx = 0

Isaac used 1/4 of an ounce of nuts to make 1/8 of a cake. How many ounces of nuts are needed to make one cake?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

2 ounces of nuts are needed to make one cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

if he uses 1.4 to make 1/8 of a cake, then you need to do it 8 times to make a full cake. Multiply 1/4 * 8 which is equal to 8/4 which simplifies to 2. This is your answer!

2 ounces of nuts are needed to make one cake.

To find the distance across the river, the given diagram is laid out. what is the distance rounded to the nearest meter?
kati45 [8]

Given:

Angle A = 18.6°

Angle B = 93°

Length of side AB = 646 meters

To find:

the distance across the river, distance between BC

Steps:

Since we know the measure of 2 angles of a triangle we can find the measure of the third angle.

18.6° + 93° + ∠C = 180°

        111.6° + ∠C = 180°

                    ∠C = 180° - 111.6°

                    ∠C = 68.4°

Therefore the measure of angle C is 68.4°.

now we can use the law of Sines,

\frac{BC}{sinA}=\frac{AB}{SinC}

\frac{BC}{sin(18.6)}= \frac{646}{sin(68.4)}

BC[sin(68.4)] = 646 [sin(18.6)]

BC = \frac{646*sin(18.6)}{sin(68.4)}

BC = \frac{646 * 0.3190}{0.9298}

BC = 221.63

BC = 222 meters

Therefore, the distance across the river is 222 meters.

Happy to help :)
