The product of 4, and a number increased by 8, is -48

Mathematics
1 answer:
german3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4n + 8 = -48

n = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words from the problem, you can set up an equation with the proper operations to solve for the variable.  Product = multiplication, so the 'product of 4 and a number' = 4n.  Increased = addition, so increased by 8 = 4n + 8.  The word 'is' means equal to, so:

4n + 8  = -48

In order to solve for 'n', you use inverse (opposite) operations and whatever you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other:

Subtract 8:  4n + 8 - 8 = -48 - 8 or 4n = -56

Divide 4:  4n/4 = -56/4

Solve for 'n':  n = -14

What is the mean absolute deviation of the data set?<br><br> 2, 2, 5, 6, 8, 4, 8, 5
DedPeter [7]

ANSWER

The mean absolute deviation is 1.75

EXPLANATION

The given date set is 2, 2, 5, 6, 8, 4, 8, 5

The mean is

\bar X =  \frac{2 + 2 + 5 + 6 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 6}{8}  = 5

The mean absolute value deviation is given by:

=\frac{ \sum |x -\bar X| }{n}

=  \frac{ | 2 - 5|  +  |2 - 5|+  |5- 5|+  |6 - 5|+  |8 - 5| +  |4 - 5|+  |8- 5|+  |5 - 5| }{8}

=  \frac{ 3  +  3+ 0+  1+  3 + 1+3+  0}{8}

=  \frac{14}{8}

= 1.75

For which value of x is the equation 3(3 + x) = 15 + x true?<br> A) 1 <br> B) 2 <br> C) 3 <br> D) 4
natulia [17]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

3(3 + x) = 15 + x

Open bracket

9 + 3x = 15 + x

Collecting like terms

3x - x = 15 - 9

2x = 6

Dividing by 2

x = 6/2

x = 3

Liquid A and liquid B are mixed to make liquid C.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Density is defined as:

Density = mass/volume.

We know that:

For liquid A:

Density = 70kg/m^3

Mass = 1400kg

Then the volume is:

Volume = mass/density = (1400kg)/(70kg/m^3) = 20 m^3

For liquid B:

Density = 280 kg/m^3

Volume = 30m^3

We can find the mass of liquid B as:

mass = density*volume = (280kg/m^3)*(30m^3) = 8400 kg

We know that liquid C is a mixture of liquid A and B.

Then the mass of liquid C will be equal to the sum of the masses of liquid A and B, then:

Mass of liquid C = 1400kg + 8400kg = 9800kg

The same happens for the volume, then:

Volume of liquid C = 30m^3 + 20m^3 = 50m^3

Then the density of liquid C is:

Density of liquid C = (9800kg)/(50m^3) = 196 kg/m^3

Does this graph represent a function? Why or why not?
ExtremeBDS [4]

A Function is defined as the relation between the input and the output where one input can have only one output

When graphing functions, the x-axis denotes the inputs and the y-axis denotes the output of the function

Looking at the graph, we see that for one input (point on the x-axis) we have only one output (point on the y-axis)

Hence, we can say that this graph represents a function
