4(3x+ 5- 3x)=x+19

4(5) = x+19

20 = x + 19

x = 20 - 19

x = 1

Hi!

<h3>Use the distribution property. </h3>

4 * 3x = 12x

4 * 5 = 20

4 * -3x = -12x

-----------------------------------

<h3>Combine like terms and Simplify</h3>

12x - 12x + 20 = x + 19

20 = x + 19

<h3>Subtract 19 from both sides</h3>

20 - 19 = x + 19 - 19

-----------------------------------

<h2>The answer is x = 1</h2>

Hope this helps! :)

A beam of light from a monochromatic laser shines into a piece of glass. The glass has thickness L and index of refraction n=1.5

boyakko [2]

Additional information to complete the question:

How long does it take for a short pulse of light to travel from one end of the glass to the other?

Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables f and L. Use the numeric value given for n in the introduction.

T = ___________ s

Answer:

$T = \frac{15}{f}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Thickness og glass = L

Index of refraction n=1.5

Frequency = f

$Wavelength = \frac{L}{10}$

λ(air) $= \frac{L}{10}$

λ(glass) = λ(air) / n

= $\frac{\frac{L}{10}}{1.5}$

= $\frac{L}{10} * \frac{1}{1.5}$

= $\frac{L}{15}$

V(glass) = fλ(glass)

$= f * \frac{L}{15}$

$T = \frac{L}{V_{glass}} = \frac{15}{f}$

Using the slope and the y intercept, graph the line represented by the following equation.

PtichkaEL [24]

Beforehand let me apologize for my sloppy handwriting. I'm a lefty, so please deal with me. . Anyway, the equation you listed didn't really have a x, because a linear equation is y= mx+b, and anything with x is the slope. But I did see y and a number on one side, so I'm like maybe I can get these two alone. So here's what I did:

2y + 4=0
-4 -4 I subtracted 4 on both sides. Why because you would want "y" alone.
Next,
2y= -4
Now to get "y" alone you want to divide on both sides.
2y= -4/ 2
y= -2
Now you're probably thinking "how do you graph it? There's no "x" in the equation." Well, you just graph it. Since the answer is y= -2, you go to the y axis, look for -2, and place a line to indicate that is the equation. And to make it clear, remember y is the y-intercept.

I really do hope this helps you, if not message me. I'll be happy to help, and again I'm sorry for my handwriting!
