Which equation is equivalent to

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

C) 29x=5

reason:

first, distribute the parentheses
this will make your equation 8-20x=6-3+9x
simplify to get 8-20x=3+9x
add 20x to both sides to get 8=3+29x
subtract 3 from both sides to get 5=29x

Method 1 : LCD Multiplication

The LCD for 6 and 4 is 12

Multiply top and bottom by the LCD

12×5612×54=1015

convert to mixed numbers and

reduce fractions where possible

=1015=23

Method 2 : Fraction Division

Divide the top fraction by the bottom

(multiply top by reciprocal of bottom)

56÷54

=56×45

=2030

4(3x^2y^4)^3 / (2x^3y^5)^4

tatyana61 [14]

Solving the expressions $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$ we get $\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to Solve the expression: $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$

Solving:

$\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$

$=\frac{4(3^3x^6y^{12})}{(2^4x^{12}y^{20})}\\=\frac{4(27x^6y^{12})}{(16x^{12}y^{20})}\\=\frac{108x^6y^{12}}{16x^{12}y^{20}}$

Applying exponent rule: $\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

$=\frac{108x^{6-12}y^{12-20}}{16}\\=\frac{27x^{-6}y^{-8}}{4}$

Another exponent rule says: $x^{-a}=\frac{1}{x^a}=$

$=\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$

So, solving the expressions $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$ we get $\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$

In the first equation in the system of equations, y represents the money collected from selling sweatshirts. In the second equat

NeTakaya

Answer:

The solution x = 229.89 ≅ 230 (since we cannot have a decimal number of sweatshirts)implies that, the money collected from selling sweatshirts equals the money used in producing sweatshirts when 230 sweatshirts have been sold or produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

In the first equation in the system of equations, y represents the money collected from selling sweatshirts. in the second equation, y represents the money spent to produce x sweatshirts with team logos on them for a professional sports league.

y=35x; y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492

what does the solution of the system represent in this context?

Solution

The solution of the system is obtained when both equations are equal. That is y=35x = y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492 .

So, 35x = -0.05(x-400)² + 9,492.

Expanding the right side, we have

35x = -0.05(x² - 800x + 160000) + 9492

35x = -0.05x² -800x × -0.05 + (-0.05) × 160000 + 9492

35x = -0.05x² +40x - 8000 + 9492

35x = -0.05x² +40x + 1492

Collecting all the terms to the left side, we have

0.05x² - 40x - 1492 + 35x = 0

0.05x² - 5x -1492 = 0

Using the quadratic formula,

$x = \frac{-(-5) +/- \sqrt{(-5)^{2} - 4 X 0.05 X - 1492} }{2X0.05} = \frac{5 +/- \sqrt{25 + 298.4} }{0.1} = \frac{5 +/- \sqrt{323.4} }{0.1}\\= \frac{5 +/- 17.983 }{0.1}\\= \frac{5 - 17.983 }{0.1} or \frac{5 + 17.983 }{0.1}\\= \frac{-12.983 }{0.1} or \frac{22.983 }{0.1}\\= -129.83 or 229.83$

We choose the positive answer x = 229.83. Since we cannot have a decimal number of sweatshirts, we approximate to the nearest whole number. So, x = 229.83 ≅ 230 sweatshirts.

The solution implies that the money collected from selling sweatshirts equals the money used in producing sweatshirts when 230 sweatshirts have been sold or produced.

We confirm that by plugging in x = 229.83 in both equations.

y = 35x = 35(229.83) = 8044.05 ≅ 8044.1

y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(229.83-400)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(-170.17)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(28,957.8289)+9,492 = -1447.8914 + 9492 = 8044.11 ≅ 8044.1

How do I solve this math problem

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Cross Multiply.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the denominator (3) of one side and the numerator (n).

Then, multiply the numerator (2) of on side and the denominator (4) of the other.

3n = 8

You divide both sides by 3 to have n be by itself, equaling ~2.6 or 8/3.
