When six times a number is decreased by five, the result is 49. what is the number?

1 answer:

3 0

Put this into an equation. Make the missing value "x".
6x - 5 = 49
49 + 5 = 54
54 / 6 = 9
x = 9.
The missing number is 9.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying :)

(5/6)^4x=(36/25)^9-x, please help solve for x, and the 9-x is all superscript

$\frac{36}{25}=\frac{6^2}{5^2}=\left(\frac{6}{5}\right)^2=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\\\\therefore:\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left[\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2}\right]^{9-x}\\\\\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{4x}=\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{-2(9-x)}\iff4x=-2(9-x)\\\\4x=-2\cdot9-2\cdot(-x)\\\\4x=-18+2x\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2x=-18\ \ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\\boxed{x=-9}$

$Use:\\a^{-n}=\left(\frac{1}{a}\right)^n\\\\\left(a^n\right)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\\left(\frac{a}{b} \right)^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2,-5) and (18, –5)?

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

(-2,-5) = (x1,y1)

(18,-5) = (x2,y2)

Slope = $\frac{-5+5}{18+2}$

= $\frac{0}{20}$

= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression which we are to solve:

$( - 4 ) 5 - ( - 6 ) ( - 4 ) + 4 0$

Since this expression includes brackets as well has plus and minus signs, so we will follow the standard order of operations to solve this expression.

Solving the brackets first to get:

$( - 2 0 ) - ( 2 4 ) + 4 0$

Now adding all the terms up to get:

Initially a pool contains 350 gallons of water. A hose is placed in the pool and the water is turned on. The hose adds 5.2 gallo

quester [9]

The amount of water that is turned in a minute is 5.2d. Given the fact that initially was 350 gallons of water everything you pour needs to be added to the initial amount. So the answer is V(x) = 350+5.2x (D). I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
