10x-4=36

then add 4 to both sides

10x=40

divide both sides by 10

Answer:

X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3(30x-12)=36  

One solution was found :

                  x = 4

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    1/3*(30*x-12)-(36)=0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  1                  

 (— • (30x - 12)) -  36  = 0  

  3                  

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  30x - 12  =   6 • (5x - 2)  

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 2 • (5x - 2) -  36  = 0  

Step  4  :

Step  5  :

Pulling out like terms :

5.1     Pull out like factors :

  10x - 40  =   10 • (x - 4)  

Equation at the end of step  5  :

 10 • (x - 4)  = 0  

Step  6  :

Equations which are never true :

6.1      Solve :    10   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

6.2      Solve  :    x-4 = 0  

Add  4  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 4

One solution was found :

                  x = 4

5 gallons of diesel weighs 37 pounds. How much does 3 gallons of diesel weigh? Do these quantities (volume and weight) vary dire
True [87]

Answer:

22.2 pounds and 1g = 7.4p

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets go in an inverse sense, finding firstly the constant variation and then the weight of 3 gallons.

The constant variation is the relation between gallons of diesel volume and pounds of diesel weight. For thise we would like to find how many pounds of diesel weights 1 gallon. We have the following equality:

5 gallons = 37 pounds

Now, lets divide both sided by 5, as we know the equality will still:

5/5 gallon = 37/ 5 pounds

1 gallon = 7.4 pounds

So, this is the constant variations: every extra gallons weights 7.4 pounds. We could also do this in terms of pounds, which means, parting from:

5 gallons = 37 pounds

Divide both sides by 37:

5/37 gallons = 1 pound

0.081 gallons = 1 pound

Every extra pound means 0.081 more gallons.

Now, as we want the weight of 3 gallons we can use our first relation and multiplying by 3:

1 gallon = 7.4 pounds

3 gallons = 22.2 pounds

Which of the following lists of ordered pairs is a function ?
Nitella [24]

To be a function, for any X value( input) you can only have one Y(output value).

In A) there are two x values of 2, but each one has a different Y value, so this cannot be a function.

In C, there are two x values of 1, each with a different Y value, so also cannot be a function.

D) has two X values of 0, and each has a different Y value so cannot be a function.

The correct answer would be B.

Mrs. Lin is sewing costumes for her grandchildren. She is making three lion costumes, one zebra costume, and two bear costumes.
stepladder [879]

Answer:

12\frac{1}{8}\ yd

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The total fabric that Mrs. Lin needs is equal to

3(1\frac{2}{3})+2\frac{5}{8}+2(2\frac{1}{4})

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

1\frac{2}{3}=1+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{5}{3}

2\frac{5}{8}=2+\frac{5}{8}=\frac{21}{8}

2\frac{1}{4}=2+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{9}{4}

substitute

3(\frac{5}{3})+\frac{21}{8}+2(\frac{9}{4})

5+\frac{21}{8}+\frac{9}{2}

\frac{40+21+36}{8}=\frac{97}{8}\ yd

Convert to mixed number

\frac{97}{8}\ yd= \frac{96}{8}+\frac{1}{8}=12\frac{1}{8}\ yd
