Solve for x:
10 (x + 2) = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 x + 40
Subtract 5 x from both sides:
(10 x - 5 x) + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
10 x - 5 x = 5 x:
5 x + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
5 x - 5 x = 0:
5 x + 20 = 40
Subtract 20 from both sides:
5 x + (20 - 20) = 40 - 20
20 - 20 = 0:
5 x = 40 - 20
40 - 20 = 20:
5 x = 20
Divide both sides of 5 x = 20 by 5:
(5 x)/5 = 20/5
5/5 = 1:
x = 20/5
The gcd of 20 and 5 is 5, so 20/5 = (5×4)/(5×1) = 5/5×4 = 4:
Answer: x = 4

find the equations -45
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. 1343 years
2. 9 hours
3. 39 years
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Given, half-life of carbon = 5730 years.
∴ λ = 0.693/half-life of carbon = 0.693/5730 = 0.000121
If N₀ = 100 then N = 85
Formula:- N = N₀*e^(-λt)
∴ 85 = 100 * e^(-0.000121t)
∴㏑(-0.85)=-0.000121t
∴ t = 1343 years
2. Given half-life of aspirin = 12 hours
λ = 0.693/12 = 0.5775
Also N₀ = 100 then 70 will disintegrate and N = 30 will remain disintegrated.
∴ 70 = 100 *e^(-0.05775t)
0.70 = e^(-0.05775t)
㏑(0.70) = -0.05775t
∴ t = 9 hours
3. The population of the birds as as A=A₀*e^(kt)
Given that the population of birds fell from 1400 from 1000, We are asked how much time it will take for the population to drop below 100, let that be x years.
The population is 1400 when f = 0, And it is 1000 when f = 5
We can write the following equation :
1400 = 1000e^(5t).
∴1400/1000 = e^(5k)
∴ k = ㏑(1.4)/5
We need to find x such that 1400/100 = e^(xk)
14 = e^(xk)
∴ x = 39 years
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a(1) = -7 (given)
a(2) = a(1) + 4 = -7 + 4 = -3
a(3) = a(2) + 4 = -3 + 4 = 1
a(4) = a(3) + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5
and so on.
It increased 80%...hope this helps m8
