3x+2=20 PLEASE ANSWER AND EXPLAIN PLEASE I DON’T UNDERSTAND MATH

Mathematics

cluponka [151]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: okay. Here we go. This will be long.

You have to use the inverse operation. That means use the opposite operation. For example, the opposite operation of addition is subtraction. So let’s ignore the 3x for now. That means the equation is +2=20. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction. So we subtract 2 from 20. That equals 18. Then we subtract 2 from 2. That equals 0. Now our equation is =18. Now remember 3x? You bring that back in. So our equation is 3x=18. See what I did? I simplified the equation. 3x means “3 times x” because x is a variable. And the opposite of times (multiplication) is division. So you divide 3 from 18. That equals 6. And we divide 3 from 3x. That equals 1x. Ax is basically the same thing as x. So now what doe we have left? X= 6. Your answer is 6.

Sonia opened a savings account and then added the same amount to the savings account eyery week. After 5 weeks, her savings acco
Goryan [66]

Answer:

since Sonia saved 45$ in 5 weeks and 70$ in 10 weeks. we are to find the amount she saved up in x weeks.

let's make the amount y

so x= y

5 = 45 cross multiplying the values

we then have 45x= 5y

y= 7x

x=y

10=70

10x = 70y

y= 7x = y=5x+ 20, y = 20x+5

Given the sequence 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, what is the sum of the 31st and 19th terms?
erica [24]

Answer:

First term (a) =8

Common difference (d)= t2-t1

=12-8

=4

Now, sum of first 31th term (tn31) =n/2{2a+(n-1)d}

= 31/2{2×8+(31-1)4}

=31/2{16+(30×4)

=31/2(16+120)

=31/2×126

=31×63

Step-by-step explanation:

Similarly use 19 as (n) for the 19th term

I need help please be sure of your answer.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The top has area (3 cm)(5 cm), or:                                 15 cm^2

The bottom has the same area:                                      15 cm^2

Each of the ends has the area (3 cm)(2.5 cm):                7.5 cm^2

                                                                                           7.5 cm^2

Each of the sides has the area (2.5 cm)(5 cm)                12.5 cm^2

                                                                                            12.5 cm^2

                                                                                        -------------------

                                                                                             70 cm^2

The total lateral area is 70 cm^2

Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 43.8° wit
REY [17]

Answer:

Index of refraction of transparent is 1.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Snell's law states that;

n1(sinθ1) = n2(sinθ2)

Where;

n1 and n2 represent the indices of refraction for the two media, and θ1 and θ2 are the angles of incidence and refraction that the ray R makes with the normal.

In this question;

n1 = 1;

θ1 = 43.8°

θ2 = 19.3°

n2 is unknown.

Thus using Snell's law, we have;

1 x sin 43.8 = n2 x sin 19.3

n2 = (sin 43.8)/sin 19.3

n2 = 1.48
