Answer:

x = 2/3                                           x = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

| 3x - 1/2 | = 3/2

We have two solutions, one positive and one negative

3x-1/2 = 3/2     and 3x-1/2 = -3/2

Add 1/2 to each side

3x-1/2+1/2 = 3/2+1/2     and 3x-1/2+1/2 = -3/2+1/2

3x = 4/2                                   3x = -2/2

3x = 2                                         3x = -1

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 2/3                                     3x/2 = -1/3

x = 2/3                                           x = -1/3

Whats the density of an object with the length of 5.0 cm a height of 3.0 and width of 15.0 cm and a mass of 24 grams
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The density of the object is 0.1067 grams per cubic centimeter. (Rounded off to 4th decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = [Mass/Volume]

Here we have been given the dimensions of the object.

Volume = Height * Width * Length

Volume = 3.0cm*15.0cm*5.0cm

             =225cm^{3}

Now we can substitute the Mass and the Volume to the density equation.

Density = [Mass/Volume]

             =\frac{24grams}{225cm^{3} }

             =0.1067 grams per cubic centimeter. (Rounded off to 4th decimal)

yuradex [85]

Answer:

a  =  \sqrt{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Pythagorean theorem
  • \sqrt{a ^{2}  + b ^{2}   }  = c \\  \sqrt{c ^{2} - b ^{2}  }  = a
  • \sqrt{5 ^{2} - 2 ^{2}  }  =  \sqrt{21}

Points A, B, and C are collinear, and B lies
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

BC = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If the three points are collinear, it means they lie on the same straight line.

Now B lies between A and C

By mathematical convention;

AC = AB + BC

This means;

48 = 2x + 2 + 3x + 6

48 = 5x + 8

48-8 = 5x

5x = 40

x = 40/5

x = 8

From the question BC = 3x + 6

Substitute the value of x; 3(8) + 6 = 24 + 6 = 30
