Carey solves the equation 4(2x-1)+5=3+2(x+1) by applying the distributive property on both sides of the equation. The result is

Carey should combine 8x with 2x and all other terms as one term by applying distributive property

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that,  

Carey solves the equation 4(2x – 1) + 5 = 3 + 2(x + 1) by applying the distributive property on both sides of the equation.  

The result is 8x – 4 + 5 = 3 + 2x + 2.  

Now, Carey then wants to combine like terms.  

We have to find which are the terms Carey should combine?  

If we observe clearly then there are two different types of terms, one with variables and others are numerical

Now let us make the like terms one side of “=”

Then, 8x – 2x = 3 + 2 + 4 – 5 ⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x = \frac{2}{3}

Hence, carey should combine 8x with 2x and all other terms as one term

Rate (R) = 25/3<br>Interest = Rs. 350<br>(d) Principal = Rs. 2400<br><br>Find the time (t) ​
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The value of t is 1.75 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that simple interest formula is I = (P×R×T)/100. So you have to substitute the following values into the formula :

i =  \frac{prt}{100}

let \: i = 350,p = 2400,r =  \frac{25}{3}

350 =  \frac{2400 \times  \frac{25}{3} \times t }{100}

350 =  \frac{20000t}{100}

350 \times 100 = 20000t

20000t = 35000

t = 35000 \div 20000

t = 35 \div 20

t = 1.75 \: years

You have to spend money to make money ! You purchase a mix of newspaper ads and online ads. Each newspaper ad cost $18.50 and ea
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

You buy six newspaper ads & eighteen social media ads.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we change ads into variables to be more easier to calculate :

Let newspaper = x

Let social media = y

Second, make this variables into an equation, given that you purchase a total of 24 ads :

x + y = 24 (first equation)

Next, given that x = $18.50 & y = $26.50 & spent a total of $588 so you can make another equation :

18.50x + 26.50y = 588 (second equation)

Now, solve this simultaneous equation using elimination or substitution (depends on you) :

substitution =>

x + y = 24 ----------(1)

18.50x + 26.50y = 588 ---------(2)

(1)=> y = 24 - x ------(3)

(3)=>(2) 18.5x + 26.5(24-x) = 588

18.5x + 636 - 26.5x = 588

-8x = -48

x = 6

sub x=6 into(3)

(3)=> y = 24 - 6

= 18

newspaper = x

= 6

social media = y

= 18

from an observer o, the angles of elevation of the bottom and the top of a flagpole are 40° and 45° respectively.find the height
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Take a look of the image below, we can think on this problem as a problem of two triangle rectangles.

We can see that both triangles share the adjacent cathetus, then the height of the flagpole is just the difference between the opposite cathetus.

Remember the relation:

Tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

So, if we define H as the height of the cliff

X as the distance between the observer and the cliff

and h as the height of the flagopole

we can write:

tan(40°) = H/X

tan(45°) = (H + h)/X

Notice that we have two equations and 3 variables (we should have the same number of equations than variables) then here is missing information, and we can't get an exact solution for the height of the flagpole.

But we can write it in terms of the height of the cliff H, or in terms of the distance between the observer and the cliff.

We want to find the value of h.

If we take the quotient between both equations, we get:

Tan(45°)/Tan(40°) = (H + h)/H

1.192 = (H + h)/H

1.192*H = H + h

1.192*H - H = h

0.192*H = h

So the height of the flagpole is 0.192 times the height of the cliff.

A kite 100 ft above the ground moves horizontally at a speed of 6 ft/s. At what rate is the angle (in radians) between the strin
arlik [135]

Answer:

0.015 radians per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

They tell us that at the moment the speed would be 6 ft / s, that is, dx / dt = 6 and those who ask us is dθ / dt.

Which we can calculate in the following way:

θ = arc sin 100/200 = pi / 6

Then we have the following equation of the attached image:

x / 100 = cot θ

we derive and we are left:

(1/100) * dx / dt = - (csc ^ 2) * θ * dθ / dt

dθ / dt = 0.01 * dx / dt / (- csc ^ 2 θ)

dθ / dt = 0.01 * 6 / (- csc ^ 2 pi / 6)

dθ / dt = 0.06 / (-2) ^ 2

dθ / dt = -0.015

So there is a decreasing at 0.015 radians per second.
