Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

6(4x+1) = 78

Distribute

24x+6 = 78

Subtract 6 from each side

24x +6-6 =78-6

24x = 72

Divide each side by 24

24x/24 = 72/24

x =3

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (4x + 1) = 78

4x + 1 = 78 ÷ 6

4x + 1 = 13

4x = 13 - 1

4x = 12

x = 3

Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 400 gallons of water in which 70 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Pure water
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a large mixing tank initially holds 400 gallons of water in which 70 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Pure water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 4 gal/min, and when the solution is well stirred, it is then pumped out at the same rate.

Let Q(t) be the quantity of salt at time t.

Q(0) = 70 pounds

Inflow of water = outflow = 4 gal/min

So resulting volume of tank at time t = 400 gallons

Rate of change of salt = inflow - outflow

= 0 - \frac{Q(t)}{400}

i.e. \frac{dQ}{dt} =\frac{-Q(t)}{400}

This is a variable separable equation

\frac{dQ}{Q}=-\frac{dt}{400} \\ln Q = {-\frac{t}{400}} +C\\Q = A e^{-\frac{t}{400}}

Use when t =0 Q = 70

A =70

So A(t) = Q(t) = 70 e^{-\frac{t}{400}} and

A(0) = Q(0) = 70 lbs.

A heated piece of metal cools according to the function c(x) = (.5)x − 11, where x is measured in hours. A device is added that
e-lub [12.9K]
16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.

The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.

The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.

Elenas bed measures 3‘ x 6‘ on the scale drawing what are the actual measurements of her bed
Sonbull [250]

Using proportions, supposing a scale of 1 inch = 3 feet, the actual measurements of her bed are given by: 9 ft x 18 ft.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication or division, from the relations built in the problem.

One example of application of proportions is for scale problems, as the actual scale and the drawing length are compared to find the actual length of the object drawn.

In the context of this problem, the scale is given by:

1 inch = 3 feet.

The drawn length of the bed is given by:

3 inches x 6 inches.

Hence the actual length is given by:

9 feet x 18 feet.

As:

  • 3 x 3 = 9.
  • 6 x 3 = 18.

<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>

The scale of the drawing is missing, hence we are going to suppose that it is 1 inch = 3 feet.
