Jada solved the equation Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction for x using the step

s below. What was Jada’s error? Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction (Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction) = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction (Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction) x = negative StartFraction 1 over 48 EndFraction

Answer:

Jada error was he multiplied the equation by (-9/4) to make the coefficient of x one. He should have multiplied it by 108

Step-by-step explanation:

Jada solved the equation

-4/9 = x/108

using the steps below:

-4/9 = x/108

(-4/9)(-9/4) = (x/108)(-9/4)

x = -1/48

Jada should have multiplied through by 108, instead of (-4/9). That was the error he made.

Multiplying through by 108 gives

(-4/9)(108) = (x/108)(108)

-48 = x

x = -48

The answer should have been

x = -48

and not

x = -1/48

What is the correct method of solving the equation x/3-6=9 for x?
AveGali [126]

Answer: The value of x is 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation x/3-6=9 is a linear equation, where x/3 is the same as one-third of x.

Thus it is easily simplified as such:

x/3-6=9

Collect like terms

x/3 = 9 + 6

x/3 = 15

i.e (1/3) of X = 15

To get the value of x, cross multiply

x = 3 x 15

x = 45

Thus, the value of x is 45

the volume of a cone is 36π cubic units. What is the volume of a cylinder that has the same base area and the same height?
ExtremeBDS [4]
V_cone = 1/3 pi * r^2 * h
V_cylinder = pi*r^2*h

If you multiply the cone's volume by 3 then you get the cylinder's volume. They become the same formula
3 V_cone = pi r^2 h
Since the cone's volume is 36pi They cylinder's volume is 3*36pi = 108 pi
