Which equation are equivalent to 1/5+2/3|2-x|=4/15?
disa [49]

Answer:

• 2/3|2 -x| = 1/15

• |2 -x| = 1/10

• 1/5 +|4/3 -2/3x| = 4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with the given equation, subtract 1/5 = 3/15.

(2/3)|2 -x| = 4/15 - 3/15

(2/3)|2 -x| = 1/15 . . . . . . . . matches the first choice

Now, multiply by 3/2.

|2 -x| = 3/30

|2 -x| = 1/10 . . . . . . . . . . . . matches the third choice

___

If you decide to distribute the coefficient 2/3 instead, you have

1/5 + |2·2/3 -x·2/3| = 4/15

1/5 + |4/3 -2/3x| = 4/15 . . . . matches the selected choice

An atom has 24 protons and 12 neutrons what is the chemical symbol for the atom?
kykrilka [37]

<u>Answer:</u>

The element is Chromium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atom has 24 protons and 12 neutrons.

We know that Cr has 24 number of protons, to the Chemical is Cr (Chromium)

Again, we know that the atomic number is the number of protons and the atomic mass is the sum of proton and neutron.

So, the atomic number is 24 and the atomic mass is (24+12)= 36

Therefore, the symbol is \bold^{36} \mathrm{Cr}_{24}\bold

A circle has a circumference of 50.2450.24 units. What is the radius of the circle?
Roman55 [17]

The formula for circumference is 2 x PI x r

Using the circumference we can find the radius:

50.24 = 2 x PI x r

Multiply 2 by PI:

2 x 3.14 = 6.28

50.24 = 6.28 x r

Divide both sides by 6.28:

R = 50.24 / 6.28

R = 8

The radius is 8 units.

baherus [9]

Remark

It is a direct variation.

y = k x

You can solve for k .

y  = 208

x = 4

k= ??

y = k * x

208 = k * 4   Divide by 4

208 / 4 = k

k = 52

So the equation becomes

y = 52 x
