If JM = 5x – 8 and LM = 2x – 6, which expression represents JL?

Mathematics
1 answer:
muminat3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The expression represents JL is<u> 3x - 2</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

JM = 5x – 8 and LM = 2x – 6.

Now, to find expression represents JL.

JM = JL + LM

<em>Subtracting both sides by LM we get:</em>

JM - LM = JL.

JL = JM - LM

Now, putting the expression to get JL:

JL=5x-8-(2x-6)

JL=5x-8-2x+6

JL=3x-2.

Therefore, the expression represents JL is 3x - 2.

hichkok12 [17]
The answer is 3) 5+r/14

Let's go segment by segment:
<span>"five plus" means addition, so we have 5 +

</span><span>"the quotient of r and 14" is the division result, so sign / must be present: 14/r
</span>
Therefore "five plus the quotient of r and 14" is 5 + 14/r

A kitten and a puppy found a sausage which is 14cm long and started eating it simultaneously from each end. The kitten is eating
julsineya [31]

It takes them 12 seconds to eat the whole sausage.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the rate of change of distance.

Analysis:

If kitten eats x cm, then puppy will eat 14 - x cm

speed = d/t

speed of kitten = 1/2

speed of puppy = 2/3

1/2 = x/t

2/3 = 14 - x / t

t = 2x--------1

2t = 3(14 - x ) -------- 2

substitute t in equation 2

2(2x) = 3(14 - x)

4x = 42 - 3x

7x = 42

x = 42/7 = 6cm

substitute value of x in equation 1

t = 2(60 = 12 seconds.

In conclusion, it takes the both animals 12 seconds to finish the sausage.

You buy Apple stock for $120 per share over a period of time the stock value increased at a weekly rate of 5% you sell the stock
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

8.31  weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of one share of Apple stock, C=$120

Rate is the increment of the stock value, R= 5%/week=0.05 / week.

Assuming that after t week, the stock has been sold for $180.

Since the stock value increased at 5% every week, so, the interest is compounded weekly, so

S=C\left(1+R\right)^t \\\\ \Rightarrow 180 = 120\left(1+0.05\right)^t \\\\  \Rightarrow 180 = 120\left(1.05 )^t \\\\

\Rightarrow \frac{180}{120}=1.05^t \\\\\Rightarrow 1.5=1.05^t

\Rightarrow \ln(1.5)=t \ln(1.05) [taking log both sides]

\Rightarrow t=\frac {\ln(1.5)}{\ln(1.05)}=8.31 weeks

Hence, after 8.31  weeks the stock has been sold for $180.
