340 pages; 20% decrease 340 pages; 20% decrease

Mathematics
1 answer:
AlekseyPX3 years ago

Answer:

272 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

First, think of 100% of "x" as x*1.00

Thus, 80% of "x" is x*0.8

So, a 20% decrease of "x" would be x*(1.00-0.2)=x*0.8

We know x is 340 pages, so a 20% decrease would be 340*0.8=272 pages.

Given that h(x) = 3x −19, find the value of x that makes h(x) = 71.
rosijanka [135]

Keywords:

<em>Equation, variable, value, clear </em>

For this case we have an equation with a variable of the form y = h (x). Where h (x) = 3x-19. Given the value ofh (x) = 71, we want to find the value of the variable "x". So, we have:

h (x) = 3x-19\\71 = 3x-19

We must clear "x", for this, we add "19" to both sides of the equation:

71 + 19 = 3x-19 + 19\\90 = 3x

We divide between "3" on both sides of the equation:

\frac {90} {3} = \frac {3x} {3}\\30 = x

Thus, the value of the variable "x" is 30.

Answer:

x = 30
