X/5 -8=4 find the value of x

elena-s [515]

Answer:

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant this: (x/5)-8=4

In which case you would add 8 to both sides to get rid of the 8 on the left (your goal is to get x by itself so you want to move the numbers on the x side to the other side of the equal sign)

(x/5)=12

Then you would multiply 5 on both sides to get rid of the fraction with the 5 on the bottom on the left side.

x=60

There's your answer.

Two pieces of equipment were purchased for a total of $4000. If one piece cost $850 more than

ruslelena [56]

The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Price of one equipment = x

Price of other equipment = y

According to given statement;

x+y=4000 Eqn 1

x = y+850 Eqn 2

Putting Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$(y+850)+y=4000\\y+850+y=4000\\2y=4000-850\\2y=3150$

Dividing both sides by 2;

$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3150}{2}\\y=1575$

Putting y=1575 in Eqn 2;

$x=1575+850\\x=2425$

The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.

2a+b=15.7 what’s the possible values of b

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

b = 15.7 -2a

Step-by-step explanation:

You are asking us to solve for b

2a +b = 15.7

Subtract 2a from each side

2a-2a+b = 15.7 -2a

b = 15.7 -2a

Find the roots of:

Elena-2011 [213]

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \pmb{1) \ 2x^3-7x^2+8x-3=0 } \end{gathered}$}$

Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -3 are 1, -1, 3, +3. So:

| 2 -7 8 -3

<u>1 | 2 -5 3</u>

| 2 -5 3 0

<u> 1 | 2 -3 </u>

2 -3 0

So the factorization is (x-1)² (2x-3)=0. So:

$\bf{ x_1=x_2=1 \qquad x_2=\dfrac{3}{2} }$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \pmb{2) \ x^3-x^2-4=0 } \end{gathered}$}$

Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -4 are 1, -1, 2, -2, 4, -4. So:

| 1 -1 0 -4

<u>2 | 2 2 </u>

1 2 2 0

So the factorization is (x-2)(x²+x+2)=0 . When calculating the discriminant of the trinomial, it is concluded that it has no roots since the result is negative. So you only have one solution.

$\bf{ 1^2-4(2)(2)=1-16=-15 < 0 \quad \Longrightarrow \quad x=2 }$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \pmb{3) \ 6x^3+7x^2-9x+2=0 } \end{gathered}$}$

Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of 2 are 1, -1, 2, -2. So:

| 6 7 9 2

<u>-2 | -12 10 -2</u>

6 -5 1 0

So the factorization is (x+2)(6x²-5x+1)=0 . The quadratic equation is solved by the general formula:

$\bf{ x_{2, 3}&=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{(5)^2-4(6)(1)}}{2(6)}=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{25-24}}{12}=\dfrac{5\pm 1}{12} }}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \begin{matrix} x_1=-2&\ \ \ \ \ \ x_{2}=\dfrac{6}{12} \qquad &\ \ \ x_3=\dfrac{4}{12}\\ &\ \ \ x_2=\dfrac{1}{2} \qquad &x_3=\dfrac{1}{3} \end{matrix} \end{gathered}$}$
