Answer:

a) x=105/3 = 35 b) x=6.  c) x=90

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 3x-5=100. To solve this we first add 5 to both sides and we get 3x=105. Then we divide both sides by 3 to find x. We then get x = 105/3 which simplifies to 35. To double check we can put 35 back into the equation and we get 3(35)-5=100 and we get 105-5=100. 100=100 Check

b)6 (x-4) = 12. First we need to divide both sides by 6. then after dividing both sides by 6 we are left with (x-4) = 2. Then we must add both sides by 4 to find x. We will then get x =6. To double check we can put 6 back into the equation and we get 6 (6-4) = 12 and we get 6(2) = 12. 12=12 check

c) 1/3x - 10 = 20. First we need to add 10 to both sides and we end up with 1/3x = 30. Then you can simplify this two ways. Either multiply both sides by 3 or divide both sides by 1/3, either way you will get the same answer. This will leave you with x = 90.  To double check we can put 90 back into the equation and we get 1/3(90) - 10 = 20 and we get 30-10 = 20. 20=20 check

Solve the equation a=m-n for the variable n
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

m-a = n

Step-by-step explanation:

a=m-n

Subtract m from each side

a-m = m-n-m

a-m = -n

Multiply each side by -1

-a+m = n

m-a = n

Kat is painting the edge of a triangular stage prop with reflective orange paint. The lengths of the edges of the triangle are (
vfiekz [6]
We are given with three lengths of a triangle expressed in terms and variables: (3x – 4) feet, (x^2 – 1) feet,  and (2x^2 – 15) feet. The perimeter of the triangle is equal to the sum of the three sides of the triangle. In this case, the sum is 3x^2 + 3x -20. When x is equal to 4, we substitute  <span>3*16 + 3*4 -20 equal to 40 feet.</span>

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The ratio 450 : 200 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 50 :

450 : 200 = 9 : 4

Therefore:

450 : 200 = 9 : 4

basically 9/4
