What Number has the dame valuÃ© as 12 tens

Jacob decided to ride his bicycle across the country during his 2-month summer vacation. the route he took from washington, dc t

Artist 52 [7]

Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that we need to find.

Let ' x ' be the number of miles traveled by Jacob so far (His distance from starting point)

Step 2: Use the sentence given to set up an equation

Sentence 1: "His distance from his starting point was exactly 100 miles more than three times the distance remaining until the finishing point"

Total distance is 2800 miles, if his distance from the starting point is 'x', then remaining distance can be represented by 2800 - x.

Using the sentence we can write the below equation...

$x = 100 + 3(2800 - x)$

Distributing 3 in the right side of the equation, we get...

$x = 100 + 8400 - 3x$

Adding 3x on both sides of the equation, we get...

$x+3x = 8500$

Combine like terms in the left side of the equation, we get...

$4x=8500$

Dividing 4 on both sides of the equation, we get...

$\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{8500}{4}$

Simplifying the fraction on either side of the equation, we get...

$x=2125miles$

Conclusion:

Out of the 2800 miles, Jacob travelled a distance of 2125 miles and remaining miles that he need to cover will be 675 miles.

Someone pls help! write the expression in radical form. 2 4/5

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$\sqrt[5]{2^4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Maybe you want 2^(4/5) in radical form.

The denominator of the fractional power is the index of the root. Either the inside or the outside can be raised to the power of the numerator.

$2^{\frac{4}{5}}=\boxed{\sqrt[5]{2^4}=(\sqrt[5]{2})^4}$

__

In many cases, it is preferred to keep the power inside the radical symbol.

William bought some tickets to see his favorite singer. He bought some adult tickets and some children’s tickets, for a total of

Fantom [35]

Set x as adult tickets.
Set y as children's tickets.
x + y = 15
30x + 20y = 270
Solve for x in the first equation.
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
Plug this into the second equation.
30x + 20y = 270
30(15 - y) + 20y = 270
450 - 30y + 20y = 270
450 - 10y = 270
-10y = -180
y = 18
If there is 18 childrens tickets, there should be -3 adult tickets.
This is impossible, and this impossible answer occured because the question is written wrong.
There are a total of 15 tickets
The smallest costing ticket is the childrens ticket, which costs 20$.
If he only bought children tickets, this would be 20x15 which is 300$.
300$ is over 270$, which makes the question impossible.
