Robert earns $512.75 less than the salary earned by Noel. John earns three times Robert's salary. If the total salary earned by
MrMuchimi

Answer:

$9426.50

Step-by-step explanation:

let noel's salary = x, robert's salary = y and john's salary = z

y = x - 512.75 ..........(1)

z = 3y = 3(x - 512.75) = 3x - 1538.25 ...............(2)

x + y + z = 47645.25..........................(3)

substitute for y and z

x + (x - 512.75) + (3x - 1538.25) = 47645.25

x + x - 512.75 + 3x - 1538.25 = 47645.25

5x = 47645.75 + 512.75 + 1538.25

5x = 49696.25

divide both sides by 5

x = 9939.25 ..... noel's salary

to get robert's salary substitute x in equation 1

y = 9939.25 - 512.75 = 9426.50

y = $9426.50..... robert's salary

Which value of x from the set {5, 6, 7, 8} makes this equation true? 3x = 24
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Value x = 8 make the equation true .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 3x = 24.

To find : Which value of x from the set {5, 6, 7, 8} makes this equation true?

Solution : We have given 3x = 24.

The equations are true when the Left hand side and right hand side of the equation are equal.

Then,

For x = 8 .

3 ( 8) = 24

24 = 24 .

Hence,

Left hand side = Right hand side.

Therefore, Value x = 8 make the equation true .

Degree and classification of 4x^2+32x+63?<br>nvm its quadratic trinomial
artcher [175]

Answer:

Pertaining to the mathematical expression conveyed, the answer to such proposed interrogate is acknowledged as the following:

Degree: 2nd degree term.

Classification: Quadratic trionomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the Degree:

The degree is acknowledged as the predominating term adjacent to a base of a peculiar value that denotes the particular allocation within a polynomial.

4x^2 has the highest degree of 2.

32x has the degree of one, being that x individually is x^1.

Since polynomials are defined by the term in which obtains the greatest degree, ^2 is referred to as quadratic, whereas ^3 is cubic, ^4…

Classification Evaluation:

Such could be determined by evaluating for the quantity of terms present within the mathematical expression or statement.

4x^2 is the first term.

32x is the second term.

63 is the third term (considered a constant).

Thus, the correct answer is a quadratic trinomial.

*I hope this helps.

Determine mABDarc using the appropriate theorems and postulates.<br> !please no absurd answers! : )
torisob [31]

Answer:

  arc ABD = 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of arc EF is the same as the measure of central angle ECF. That angle is a vertical angle with angle ACB, so they are congruent. The angle sum theorem tells you the measure of angle ACD is the sum of the measures of angles ACB and BCD. That sum is 35° +21° = 56°.

Since the central angle ACD has measure 56°, arc AD has measure 56°.
