What is s in 2m+4s=16 if m=-2

Mathematics

Answer:

s = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2m + 4s = 16

<u>Step 1:  Plug in -2 for m</u>

2(-2) + 4s = 16

-4 + 4s = 16

<u>Step 2:  Solve for s</u>

-4 + 4s + 4 = 16 + 4

4s / 4 = 20 / 4

s = 5

Answer: s = 5

Answer:

s= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

s= 5

m= - 2

2m + 4s= 16

Replace the m with the value it is in brackets. Remember brackets mean to multiply.

2(-2) + 4s= 16

-4 + 4s= 16

Carry over the -4 and make s the subject.

4s= 16 - - 4

4s= 16 + 4

4s= 20

s= 20/4

s= 5

Therefore s= 5

To check if the answer was correct, replace the s and m with the value it is in brackets. s= 5; m= 2

2(-2) + 4(5)= 16

-4 + 20 = 16

Therefore s= 5 and the answer is correct!

A circle has a circumference of 28 centimeters. If an arc subtends a central angle of 55 degrees, what is the arc length?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

s = 4.28 cm (Answer A)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The formula for the circumference of a circle of radius r is C = 2(pi)r, and this corresponds to a full circle, with central angle 360 degrees.  

2) Here the circumference is 28 cm.  Therefore, solving for the radius involves the following calculation:   28 cm = 2(pi)r, or

r = (28 cm) / (2 pi), or (28 cm) / 6.28 = 4.46 cm.  

3) The arc length s = r(theta), when the central angle (theta) is 55 degrees, is (55/360) times the circumference of the circle:  (55/360)(28 cm), or

s = 4.28 cm (Answer A)

Find the distance between the points (-3, 4) and (1, 7).
makvit [3.9K]

Use distance formula d=sqrt root (y2-y1)^2+(x2-x1)^2. So  (-3, 4) and (1, 7). D= sqrt root ( 7-4)^2+(-3+1)^2. So now solve d= sqrt (3)^2+(-2)^2. Now d= sqrt 9+4. D= sqrt 13 or 3.60555

T is directly proportional to M.
zaharov [31]
By proportionality, for any number a, if T is multiplied by a then the same goes for M.

a) M has been multiplied by \dfrac{3}4 hence T=20\cdot\dfrac{3}4=5\cdot3=15

\boxed{T=15}

b) T has been divided by 2 hence M=\dfrac{4}2

\boxed{M=2}
