Solve each equation for the indicated variable. u = -3a - 3 , for a

Mathematics
1 answer:
MAXImum [283]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a = \frac{u + 3}{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, add 3 to both sides of the equation:

u = -3a - 3

u (+3) = -3a - 3 (+3)

u + 3 = -3a

Next, divide -3 from both sides of the equation:

(u + 3)/-3 = (-3a)/-3

a = (u + 3)/-3

a = \frac{u + 3}{-3}  is your answer.

Which of the following options have the same value as %5, percent of 35? Choose 2 answers: (Choice A) A 5*35 (Choice B) B 5/100*
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

5% of 35 can be represented as 5% \cdot35.

To find equations that make this work, we need to find different ways to represent 5%.

5% can be represented as fraction - over 100. The percentage over 100 will be equal to the percent.

So, \frac{5}{100}. Multiplying by 35 gets us \frac{5}{100}\cdot35

This means that Choice B is correct.

Another way to represent 5% is as a decimal.

We already know that the fraction form of 5% is \frac{5}{100}. This means that in the decimal, the number 5 will be two place values to the right of the decimal place.

0.<u>0</u><u>5</u>

So the decimal expansion of 5% is 0.05. Multiplyin by 35 get us 0.05\cdot35, so choice D works too.

Hope this helped!
