Solve for x 6 (8X minus 1) equals 9 (x + 2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = \frac{8}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6(8x - 1) = 9(x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

48x - 6 = 9x + 18 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

39x - 6 = 18 ( add 6 to both sides )

39x = 24 ( divide both sides by 39 )

x = \frac{24}{39} = \frac{8}{13}

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 1m longer than twice one of the other two sides. The third side of the triangle is 15m. Fi
Dimas [21]

Let the length of unknown side be x

So, hypotenuse = 2x + 1

By pythagorean theorem ie , a² = b² + c²

(2x + 1)² = x² + 15²

4x² + 1 + 4x = x² + 225

3x² + 4x -224

(3x +28)(x-8)

x = -9.33 , 8

Since, length can't be negative

x = 8

∴Unknown side length = 8 m

Length of hypotenuse = 2 x 8 + 1 = 17 m

Hope it helps now.

Write the equation, in standard form, of a polynomial of the least degree with integral

Answer:

f

)

=

x

3

−

5

x

2

−

47

x

−

15

Explanation:

If the zero is c, the factor is (x-c).

So for zeros of

−

3

,

−

1

3

,

5

, the factors are

(

x

+

3

)

(

x

+

1

3

)

(

x

−

5

)

Let's take a look at the factor

(

x

+

1

3

)

. Using the factor in this form will not result in integer coefficients because

1

3

is not an integer.

Move the

3

in front of the x and leave the

1

in place:

(

3

x

+

1

)

.

When set equal to zero and solved, both

(

x

+

1

3

)

=

0

and

(

3

x

+

1

)

=

0

result in

x

=

−

.

f

(

x

)

=

(

x

)

(

)

(

)

Multiply the first two factors.

=

Multiply/distribute again.

Help I was never taught how to do this im confused
vazorg [7]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = (bh)/2

Where b = base length and h = height

Given base length: 18ft

Given height: 4ft

This being known let's define the variables

b = 18

h = 4

Now to find the area we simply plug in these values into the formula

Area = (18)(4)/2

Simplify multiplication 18 * 4 = 72

Area = 72/2

Simplify division

Area = 36

What expression defines Sn?
frutty [35]

Answer:

Sₙ=3(1/2^n)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that in the given series that each term is being multiplied by 1/2, which is our common ratio. 3/2 is the first term because 3*1/2=3/2, so the expression that defines Sₙ is Sₙ=3(1/2^n)
