Answer:

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to get x by itself

5x+38=8x-19

First, we need to move all the numbers to the same side, and all the variables to the other side

Let’s add 19 to both sides

5x+38+19=8x-19+19

5x+57=8x

Now, subtract 5x from both sides

5x-5x+57=8x-5x

57=3x

Now all the numbers are on one side, and the variables are on the other. x is still now by itself, it is being multiplied by 3. To undo this, divide both sides by 3.

57/3=3x/3

19=x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 38 = 8x - 19

by transposing method,

5x - 8x = -19-38

-3x = -57

3x = 57

x = 57/3

x = 19

What are the solutions of the following equation? 5∣x+6∣+8=−6∣x+6∣+8

Vika [28.1K]

So think of |x+6| as a single object. Move the -6|x+6| to the left side and move the 8 to the right side to get 11|x+6| = 0. Then divide both sides by 11 to get |x+6| = 0 and in this instance the || can be dropped because +0 and -0 are the same. so x + 6 = 0 or x=-6

The half-life of Radium-226 is 1590 years. If a sample contains 400 mg, how many mg will remain after 2000 years?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

167.27 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the half-life of Radium-226 is 1590 years and a sample contains 400 mg.

We will use half life formula to solve our given problem.

$N(t)=N_0*(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t/2}$ , where N(t)= Final amount after t years, $N_0$ = Original amount, t/2= half life in years.

Now let us substitute our given values in half-life formula.

$N(2000)=400*(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{2000}{1590}$

$N(2000)=400*(0.5)^{1.2578616352201258}$

$N(2000)=400*0.4181633028874878239$

$N(2000)=167.26532115499512956\approx 167.27$

Therefore, the remaining amount of Radium-226 after 2000 years will be 167.27 mg.

What expression is equivalent to

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is $\sqrt[3]{64a^6b^7c^9}$

By simplifying this expression,

$\sqrt[3]{64a^6b^7c^9}=\sqrt[3]{(4)^3(a^2)^3(b^2)^3(b)(c^3)^3}$

$=(4a^2b^2c^3)\sqrt[3]{b}$

Option (1)

$2abc^2\sqrt[3]{4a^2b^3c}$ = $2ab^2c^2\sqrt[3]{a^2c}$

Option (2)

$4a^2b^2c^3(\sqrt[3]{b})$ [Fully simplified form]

Option (3)

$8a^3b^3c^4(\sqrt[3]{bc} )$ [Fully simplified form]

Option (4)

$8a^2b^2c^3(\sqrt[3]{b})$

Expression given in Option (2) is equivalent to the given expression.

Option (2) will be the answer.

1. What is extraneous solutions?

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

When you multiply through by the LCD and solve the resulting quadratic equation, you get solutions x=2 and x=1. However when we try to check the solution x=2, it causes the first and last denominators to become 0, which is undefined. However x=1 checks.
