Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Discussion:

Given:  (1/2) ( 4 + 8x)   = 17                 => multiply both sides by 2

4 + 8x = 17 * 2 = 34         (*)                 => divide both sides by 2

2 + 4x  = 17                      (**)               => subtract 2 from both sides

4x = 17 - 2 = 15                (***)              => divide both sides by 4

x = 15/4                            (****)

Provided equations:

2 + 4x = 8.5      No cigar. Not equal to (**).

4x = 15              Yes, they are equal. This is (***)

4 + 8x = 34       Yes, they are equal. This is (*)

2 = 17 - 8x         No cigar. 2 = 17-8x => 8x = 15 => x = 15/8 which is not

                         equal to  (****)

Only the second and third choices above are equal.

Thank you,

MrB

Answer:

4+8x = 34

4x= 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(4+8x) = 17

Multiply by 2 on each side

2*1/2(4+8x) = 17*2

(4+8x) = 34  (One solution)

Subtract 4 from each side

4-4 +8x = 34-4

8x = 30

Divide by 2

8x/2 = 30/2

4x= 15  (2nd solution)

Vertical angles are equal

so

3x - 3 = 6(x - 10)

3x - 3 = 6x - 60

at 7 p.m. the temperature is 72 degrees F at 10 p.m. it is 52 degrees find the average rate of change in temperature
mart [117]
We will assume that we have a function relating between the time and the temperature. Any point in this function can be expressed as (x,y) where x is the time and y is the temperature (any point is expressed as (time, temperature)).

We have two points given:
<span>At 7 p.m. the temperature is 72 degrees F: First point is (7,72)
</span><span>At 10 p.m. the temperature is 52 degrees F: Second point is (10,52)

The rate of change is simply the slope of this function, this slope can be calculated as:
rate of change = (y2-y1) / (x2-x2)
we have y2= 52, y1= 72, x2= 10 and x1= 7

Substituting in the equation, we can calculate the rate of change as follows:
rate of change = (52-72) / (10-7) = -6.667 degrees/hours
Note: The negative sign indicated a DECREASE in the temperature.</span>

How can i melt ice the fastest
dybincka [34]

Answer:

1. Ice melts under heat and temperatures above freezing point.

2. If I leave my ice underneath the sun, then it will melt.

3. I would test it by putting ice into a bowl and leave it outside for five minutes.

4. After five minutes, I would go outside and see what percentage of the ice has melted.

5. Ice melts underneath high temperatures and the higher the temperature, the faster the ice melts.

A rectangular field is nine times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 1700 feet, what
Leokris [45]

Answer:

I. L = 10.35 feet

II. W = 93.15 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be L.

Let the width of the rectangle be W.

Given the following data;

Perimeter of rectangular field = 1700 feet

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

W = 9L

Mathematically, the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is;

P = 2(L + W)

A. To write an equation;

X = P = 2(L + W)

B. To find the dimensions of the field;

207 = 2(L + 9L)

207 = 2L + 18L

207 = 20L

L = 207/20

L = 10.35 feet

To find the weight;

W = 9L

W = 9 * 10.35

W = 93.15 feet.

Therefore, the width of the field is

93.15 feet and the length of the field is

10.35 feet.
