Answer: -44

<u>Step 1</u>

(-1/2)*x-4 = 18 // - 18

<u>Step 2</u>

<u></u>(-1/2)*x-18-4 = 0<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Step 3</u>

<u></u>-1/2*x-22 = 0 // + 22<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Step 4</u>

<u></u>-1/2*x = 22 // : -1/2<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Step 5</u>

<u></u>x = 22/(-1/2)<u></u>

Stells [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Students use algebra to solve equations (of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers); using techniques of making zero (adding the additive inverse) and making one (multiplying by the multiplicative inverse) to solve for the variable.

Students identify and compare the sequence of operations used to find the solution to an equation algebraically, with the sequence of operations used to solve the equation with tape diagrams. They recognize the steps as being the same.

Students solve equations for the value of the variable using inverse operations; by making zero (adding the additive inverse) and making one (multiplying by the multiplicative inverse).

Given that y = 9 cm and 0 = 23°, work out x rounded to 1 DP.<br> у<br> х<br> 00<br> PLEASE HELP
lozanna [386]

Answer:

x ≈ 3.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin23° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{x}{9} ( multiply both sides by 9 )

9 × sin23° = x , then

x ≈ 3.5 cm ( to 1 dec. place )

_ 5x^20-7x^10+15 in quadratic form
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

x = -(sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -(1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-5 x^20 - 7 x^10 + 15 = 0

Substitute y = x^10:

-5 y^2 - 7 y + 15 = 0

Divide both sides by -5:

y^2 + (7 y)/5 - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides:

y^2 + (7 y)/5 = 3

Add 49/100 to both sides:

y^2 + (7 y)/5 + 49/100 = 349/100

Write the left hand side as a square:

(y + 7/10)^2 = 349/100

Take the square root of both sides:

y + 7/10 = sqrt(349)/10 or y + 7/10 = -sqrt(349)/10

Subtract 7/10 from both sides:

y = sqrt(349)/10 - 7/10 or y + 7/10 = -sqrt(349)/10

Substitute back for y = x^10:

x^10 = sqrt(349)/10 - 7/10 or y + 7/10 = -sqrt(349)/10

Taking 10^th roots gives (sqrt(349)/10 - 7/10)^(1/10) times the 10^th roots of unity:

x = -(1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (sqrt(349) - 7))^(1/10) or y + 7/10 = -sqrt(349)/10

Subtract 7/10 from both sides:

x = -(sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or y = -7/10 - sqrt(349)/10

Substitute back for y = x^10:

x = -(sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x^10 = -7/10 - sqrt(349)/10

Taking 10^th roots gives (-7/10 - sqrt(349)/10)^(1/10) times the 10^th roots of unity:

Answer:  x = -(sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10)/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(1/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(2/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(3/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = ((-1)^(4/5) (sqrt(349) - 7)^(1/10))/10^(1/10) or x = -(1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(1/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(2/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(3/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = -(-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10) or x = (-1)^(4/5) (1/10 (-7 - sqrt(349)))^(1/10)

Please help me solve 6/8=n/20
qwelly [4]
Just multiply 20 by both sides.

n = 20(6/8)

Multiply that out and that is your answer :)
