Answer:

16.625

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/7)x + x = 19

Isolate the variable. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, multiply 7 to all terms inside the equation.

(7)(1/7)x + (7)(x) = (7)(19)

x + 7x = 133

Simplify. Combine like terms.

x + 7x = 133

8x = 133

Isolate the variable x. Divide 8 from both sides.

(8x)/8 = (133)/8

x = 133/8

x = 16.625

16.625 is your answer for x.

$\bf x+\cfrac{1}{7}x=19\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{7}}{7\left( x+\cfrac{1}{7}x \right)=7(19)}\implies 7x+x=133 \\\\\\ 8x=133\implies x=\cfrac{133}{8}\implies x=16\frac{5}{8}$

Calculate the length of a triangle if another length is 15 feet and the hypotenuse is 39 feet.

Y_Kistochka [10]

We have to use Pythagorean theorem that says :

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\\Rightarrow a^2+15^2=39^2\\a^2=39^2-15^2\\a=\sqrt{1296}\\a=36$

The missing length of the triangle is : 36 feet

Lydia has 400$ in her bank account. Each week she withdraws 10$ for spending money. She also uses 5$ each week to get credit on

Softa [21]

Answer:

400 - 15x < 300

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that she has 400$ in her bank account.

Now, Each week she withdraws 10$ for spending money. She also uses 5$ each week to get credit on her apple account.

Total total withdrawal each week = 10 + 5 = $15

If number of weeks she has been withdrawing is x, then would have withdrawn $15x after x number of weeks.

Thus, amount left after x number of weeks is:

400 - 15x

We want to find the inequality statement can be used to determine how many weeks it will take for her bank account balance to drop below 300.

Thus;

400 - 15x < 300

For the years from 2002 and projected to 2024, the national health care expenditures H, in billions of dollars, can be modeled b

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

2019.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for the years from 2002 and projected to 2024, the national health care expenditures H, in billions of dollars, can be modeled by $H = 1,500e^{0.053t}$ where t is the number of years past 2000.

To find the year in which national health care expenditures expected to reach $4.0 trillion (that is, $4,000 billion), we will substitute $H=4,000$ in our given formula and solve for t as:

$4,000= 1,500e^{0.053t}$

$\frac{4,000}{1,500}=\frac{ 1,500e^{0.053t}}{1,500}$

$\frac{8}{3}=e^{0.053t}$

$e^{0.053t}=\frac{8}{3}$

Take natural log of both sides:

$\text{ln}(e^{0.053t})=\text{ln}(\frac{8}{3})$

$0.053t\cdot \text{ln}(e)=\text{ln}(\frac{8}{3})$

$0.053t\cdot (1)=0.9808292530117262$

$\frac{0.053t}{0.053}=\frac{0.9808292530117262}{0.053}$

$t=18.506212320$

So in the 18.5 years after 2000 the expenditure will reach 4 trillion.

$2000+18.5=2018.5$

Therefore, in year 2019 national health care expenditures are expected to reach $4.0 trillion.
