Answer:

The required equation is 5x - 3 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the equation for the given condition

Let the number be x as given in the equation

Now according to the condition

5 time the Number is 5 *x = 5x

Three less then 5 time the Number would be 5x - 3

And all of it is equal to 12

Which gives us the equation

5x - 3 =12

The required equation is <em>5x - 3 = 12</em>

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given point and having the given slope. r(4, 0), m = 5
Brrunno [24]
Y = mx + b....m is the slope and b is the y intercept
slope(m) = 5...(4,0)...x = 4 and y = 0
now we sub our info into y = mx + b...we r looking for b, the y intercept
0 = 5(4) + b
0 = 20 + b
-20 = b
so ur equation is y = 20x - 20...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C

y = 20x - 20....subtract 20x from both sides
-20x + y = -20...multiply by -1 to make x positive
20x - y = 20 <== standard form

I’m not understanding the answer listed on this site to the following question:
kobusy [5.1K]
Okay, I think I understand this. Our first step is to solve how long the string is after he used some of it to tie the package. I have a feeling we have to subtract 7/8 - 1/5. Find a least common multiple (in this case, it's 40) and our new fractions are 35/40 and 8/45. Subtract:

35/40 - 8/40 = 27/40.

I don't think this can be simplified down any further as they do not have any common factors. So with that in mind, let's divide 27/40 with 5/1 (5/1 is basically 5 wholes but in fraction version)

When dividing fractions, you want to use the KCF technique (my old math teacher taught me this). Keep the first fraction the same (in this case, 27/40), change the sign from multiplication to division, and flip 5/1 to get it's reciprocal, 1/5. The equation will look like this:

27/40 * 1/5 = 27/200

So each piece is about 27/200 m in length (or 0.135 m in length).

If this is wrong, please let me know, but this is what I got out of this question. I hope this helped you :)

Find the circumference of a circle that has an area of 452.16 square meters. (Use 3.1416 as the value of π.)
laila [671]
\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\&#10;A=\pi r^2\quad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;r=radius\\&#10;-----\\&#10;A=452.16&#10;\end{cases}\implies 452.16=\pi r^2\implies \cfrac{452.16}{\pi }=r^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{\sqrt{\cfrac{452.16}{\pi }}=r}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{circumference of a circle}\\\\&#10;C=2\pi r\qquad \qquad \implies C=2\pi \left( \boxed{\sqrt{\cfrac{452.16}{\pi }}} \right)

so, is just that product, recall to use "<span>3.1416 as the value of π".</span>
