X-2(x+10)=12 need work shown

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=-32

Step-by-step explanation:

expand -2(x+10): -2x-20

x-2x -20=12

add similar elements: x-2x=-x

x-20=12

add 20 to both sides

-x-20+20=12+20

simplify

-x=32  

divide both sides by -1

x=-32

Traveling with the current, a boat covers a distance 1.5 times greater than traveling against the current in the same amount of
jeka94
Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.

b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c

The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph

What is this number in standard form?
attashe74 [19]

The number (7×100)+(4×1/100)+(8×1/1,000) in standard form is 7.0048 × 10²

<h3>How to write number in standard form?</h3>

The number can be represented in standard form as follows:

(7 × 100) + (4 × 1/100)+(8 × 1/1,000)

Therefore,

7 × 100 = 700 = 7 × 10²

4 × 1/100 = 4 × 10⁻²

8 × 1/1,000 = 8 × 10⁻³

Therefore,

7 × 10² + 4 × 10⁻² + 8 × 10⁻³ = 700.048 = 7.0048 × 10²
