Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

Total books = 175

Books delivered to the preschool = 1/5 x 175 = 35

Books delivered to the preschool = 35

Books delivered to camp = 2/5 x 175

Books delivered to camp = 70

Books delivered to the 2 libraries = 175 - 35 - 70

Books delivered to the 2 libraries = 70

Books delivered to 1 library = 70 ÷ 2

Books delivered to 1 library = 35

Essential: Solve the proportions<br> step by step ​
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The value of r=\frac{-106}{47}

The value of x=\frac{83}{32}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A) \frac{2r-2}{7r+10} = \frac{9}{8}

Now,

\frac{2r-2}{7r+10} = \frac{9}{8}

8(2r-2)=9(7r+10)

16r-16=63r+90

-16-90=63r-16r

-(16+90)=47r

-106=47r

r=\frac{-106}{47}

B) \frac{x+4}{9} = \frac{3(x-2)-1}{5}

Now,

\frac{x+4}{9} = \frac{3(x-2)-1}{5}

5(x+5)=9[3(x-2)-1]

5x+25=9[3x-6-1]

5x+25=9[3x-7]

5x+25=27x-63

25+63=27x+5x

83=32x

x=\frac{83}{32}

QUICK EASY 25 POINTS!!

Answer:

1. leave the radical symbol and don't try to convert it to a decimal form

2. The approximated value differs from the exact solution and doesn't give a true equation.

3. Depending on the case, if she needs a mathematical answer, the exact value should be used, but for more practical applications, the rounded decimal form would be more usable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The step by step solution to the equation:

4x^3=756\\x^3=\frac{756}{4} =189\\x=\sqrt[3]{189} \\x=\sqrt[3]{3^3*7} \\x=3*\sqrt[3]{7}

1.- Exact solution means that if in the final step when solving for x the value of  x^3 is not a perfect cube, one needs to leave it indicated as a radical expression (with the radical symbol).

in our case, the cubic root of 189 is not a perfect cube. The factor form of 189 is: 3^3*7, so there is a perfect cube factor (3^3), but the other factor (7) is a prime number. Therefore 3 can get out of the root, while 7 stays inside.

2.- The equation was solved above, in exact form. Now to solve it giving a decimal approximation, we use a calculator to find the cubic root of 7, which is an irrational number with infinite number of decimals, the first of which we type here: \sqrt[3]{7} = 1.91293118...

Therefore, the decimal approximation to the solving for x would be:

x=3*\sqrt[3]{7}=3*1,91293118...=5.73879...=5.74

Where we rounded to two decimals as requested.

When we replace the exact answer in the original expression, we get a perfect equality:

4*x^3=756\\4* (3\sqrt[3]{7} )^3=756\\4*3^3*(\sqrt[3]{7} )^3=756\\4*27*7=756\\\\756=756

While if we use the approximate answer, we get:

4*x^3=756\\\\4*(5.74)^3=756\\\\4*189.119224=756\\756.476896=756

which is NOT a true equality.

3.- I would stick with the idea of showing the exact answer as answer to the mathematical equation. but for a practical case (for example she needs to by some material as a result of her equation solving, it would be more practical to take the numerical approximation to the store, instead of a cubic root of a number.

I need help on this question for the beginning of the year test
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

She still has to cut 1 3 /16

Step-by-step explanation:

Olivia wants to cut 3 3/4 inches from a piece of string. Converting 3 3/4 to improper fraction, it becomes 15/4 inches.

She already cut off 2 9/16 inches converting to improper fractions it becomes 41/16 inches.

15/4 - 41/16 = (60-41)/16 = 19/16 inches

19/16 = 1.187 ~ 1

19 - (16 x 1) =3
