x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x-1=-2x+39$

Add 1 to both sides.

$3x=-2x+40$

Add 2x to both sides.

$5x=40$

Divide 40 by 5.

x = 8

Lee las situaciones y realiza lo siguiente con cada una:

Julli [10]

Answer:

Part 1) see the explanation

Part 2) see the explanation

Part 3) see the explanation

Part 4) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

Read the situations and do the following with each one:

Write down the magnitudes involved

Write which magnitude is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable

It represents the function that describes the situation

SITUATIONS:

1) A machine prints 840 pages every 30 minutes.

2) An elevator takes 6 seconds to go up two floors.

3) A company rents a car at S/ 480 for 12 days.

4) 10 kilograms of papaya cost S/ 35

Part 1) we have

A machine prints 840 pages every 30 minutes

Let

x ----> the time in minutes (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the number of pages that the machine print (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=840\ pages\\x=30\ minutes$

substitute

$k=\frac{840}{30}=28\ pages/minute$

The linear equation is

$y=28x$

Part 2) we have

An elevator takes 6 seconds to go up two floors.

Let

x ----> the time in seconds (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the number of floors (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=2\ floors\\x=6\ seconds$

substitute

$k=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\ floors/second$

The linear equation is

$y=\frac{1}{3}x$

Part 3) we have

A company rents a car at S/ 480 for 12 days.

Let

x ----> the number of days (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the cost of rent a car (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=\$480\\x=12\ days$

substitute

$k=\frac{480}{12}=\$40\ per\ day$

The linear equation is

$y=40x$

Part 4) we have

10 kilograms of papaya cost S/ 35

Let

x ----> the kilograms of papaya (represent the variable independent or input value)

y ---> the cost (represent the dependent variable or output value)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem

we have a a proportional variation

The value of the constant of proportionality is equal to

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

we have

$y=\$35\\x=10\ kg$

substitute

$k=\frac{35}{10}=\$3.5\ per\ kg$

The linear equation is

$y=3.5x$

Megan has a large packing box shaped as a cube with a volume of 216 cubic feet.

Flura [38]

Answer:

s = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The volume of the cube, V = 216 feet³

We need to find the side length for the cubical box. We know that the volume of the cube is given by :

$V=s^3$ , s is the side length of the box.

So,

$s={V}^{1/3}\\\\s={216}^{1/3}\\\\s=6\ feet$

So, the side length for the cubical box is equal to 6 feet.
