Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with 2x+6=22
You subtract 6 from each side of the equation:
2x=16
You want to isolate the "x" so you divide each side by 2.
x = 8
check your answer: 2x + 6 = 22
2(8) + 6 = 22
16 + 6 = 22

Complete Question
Astrid is in charge of building a new fleet of ships. Each ship requires 40 tons of wood, and accommodates 300 sailors. She receives a delivery of 4 tons of wood each day. The deliveries can continue for 100 days at most, afterwards the weather is too bad to allow them. Overall, she wants to build enough ships to accommodate at least 2100 sailors. How much wood does Astrid need to accommodate 2100 sailors?
Answer:
280 tons of wood.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question:
To make 1 ship = we require 40 tons of wood.
1 ship = can accommodate 300 sailors.
Step 1
If :
300 sailors = 1 ship
2100 sailors = y ships
Cross Multiply
300 × y ships = 1 ship × 2100 sailors
y ships = 2100 / 300
y ships = 7
Hence, 2100 sailors can occupy 7 ships.
Step 2
We are told in the question that:
Astrid wants to build enough ships to accommodate at least 2100 sailors. How much wood does Astrid need to accommodate 2100 sailors?
If:
1 ship = 40 tons of wood
Since 7 ships can accommodate 2100 sailors,
7 ships =
7 × 40 tons of wood = 280 tons of wood.
Therefore , Astrid needs 280 tons of wood to accommodate 2100 sailors.
Answer:
x=2, y=3. (2, 3).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+4y=16
-2x-3y=-13
-----------------
y=3
2x+4(3)=16
2x+12=16
2x=16-12
2x=4
x=4/2
x=2
Answer:
61.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find all the demographics first:
Sophomores in the class(total 15):
Female: 5
Male : 10
Freshmen in the class(total 11):
Female: 3
Male: 8
There are 11 freshmen(male and female) and 5 female sophomores. Thus, the probability of choosing one of these 16 people in a class of 26 is 16/26 or 61.5%.
Answer:
=x^2 +4x+11
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + 7,
Replace x with x+2
f(x+2) = (x+2)^2 + 7
= (x+2)(x+2) +7
FOIL
= x^2 +2x+2x+4 +7
Combine like terms
=x^2 +4x+11
