Answer:

7 is not a solution for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if 7 is a solution for x, we will simply plug in the value for x and see if the left hand side is equal to the right hand side.

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

3(7) + 8 - (7) ?= 57 - 4

21 + 8 - 7 ?= 53

29 - 7 ?= 53

22 ?= 53 (( NO ))

Since 22 does not equal 53, 7 is not a solution for x.

Let's find the solution for x:

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

2x + 8 = 53

2x = 45

x = 22.5

Let's validate this solution for x:

3x + 8 - (x) = 57 - 4

3(22.5) + 8 - (22.5) ?= 57 - 4

67.5 + 8 - 22.5 ?= 53

45 + 8 ?= 53

53 == 53 (( YES ))

Since 53 is indeed equal to 53, then 22.5 is a solution for x.

Cheers.

Answer:

No, 7 is not a solution. x=11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find whether 7 is a solution, we can plug it in as x.

3(7)+8-7=57-4

21+15=53

36=53

No, 7 is not a solution.

We can find the solution by solving out the equation normally

3x+8+x=57-4

2x+8=53

2x=45

x=22.25

Using a System to Break Even

andreev551 [17]

Answer: P^2 - 10p + 24 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a company’s weekly revenue, in thousands, is modeled by the equation

R = -p2 + 14p,

where p is the price of the product it makes. The company is considering hiring an outside source to distribute its products, which will cost the company 4p + 24 thousand dollars per week.

If the company want to break even, the cost of hiring distributors will be equal to the revenue per week.

Therefore,

-P^2 + 14p = 4p + 24

Collect the like terms

-P^2 + 14p - 4p - 24 = 0

-P^2 + 10p - 24 = 0

Multiply all by minus sign

P^2 - 10p + 24 = 0

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{3600 mg}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the number of capsules

Marilyn takes 2 capsules per day

$\text{No. of capsules} = \text{90 days} \times \dfrac{\text{2 capsules}}{\text{1 day}} = \text{ 180 capsules}$

Step 2. Convert capsules to milligrams

There are 20 mg in each capsule.

$\text{No. of milligrams} = \text{180 capsules} \times \dfrac{\text{20 mg}}{\text{1 capsule}} = \textbf{3600 mg}\\\\\text{Marilyn will take } \boxed{\textbf{3600 mg}} \text{ of Pirixocam}$
