If you want it as an improper fraction: 104/5
If you want it as a decimal: 20.8

5x-12=92
5x=92+12
5x=104
x=104/5
x=20.8

5(20.8) -12 = 92
104-12=92

Answer:

#1. Identity #2. 0 #3. No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

#1.

5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y+4)

5y + 2 = 5y + 2

This would be identity as the equation of the left and right are the same. This is not to be confused with no solution(explained below).

#2.

0.5b + 4 = 2(b+2)

0.5b + 4 = 2b + 4

0.5 b - 2b = 0

b = 0

#3.

-3x + 5 = -3x + 10

This equation has no solution because when you try to bring the -3x to one side, the x variable itself gets eliminated. So, how is it different from identity? Well in the first equation, it is true that when we try to bring the 5y one side it eliminates the y variable, however, that is also true for the constants(since if we try to bring the 2 to one side, it will be 2-2 which will equal 0, thus eliminating each other), but in this case, even if we remove the x, the constants will not equal 0, thus it will have no solution.

My product is 30. The differencd of the two factors is 1. The zum of the two factors is 11. What numbers am i
timurjin [86]
A * b = 30
a - b = 1
a + b = 11

take ur last 2 equations, and add them
a - b = 1
a + b = 11
--------------add
2a = 12
a = 12/2
a = 6

now its just a matter of subbing
a + b = 11
6 + b = 11
b = 11 - 6
b = 5

so a = 6 and b = 5...whose product is 30, whose difference is 1, and whose sum is 11.

Each year for 4 years, a farmer increased the number of trees in a certain orchard by of the number of trees in the orchard the
Neko [114]

Answer:

The number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say that x is number of trees at the begging of the first year, we know that for four years the number of trees were incised by 1/4 of the number of trees of the preceding year, so at the end of the first year the number of trees wasx+\frac{1}{4} x=\frac{5}{4} x, and for the next three years we have that

                             Start                                          End

Second year     \frac{5}{4}x --------------   \frac{5}{4}x+\frac{1}{4}(\frac{5}{4}x) =\frac{5}{4}x+ \frac{5}{16}x=\frac{25}{16}x=(\frac{5}{4} )^{2}x

Third year    (\frac{5}{4} )^{2}x-------------(\frac{5}{4})^{2}x+\frac{1}{4}((\frac{5}{4})^{2}x) =(\frac{5}{4})^{2}x+\frac{5^{2} }{4^{3} } x=(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x

Fourth year (\frac{5}{4})^{3}x--------------(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x+\frac{1}{4}((\frac{5}{4})^{3}x) =(\frac{5}{4})^{3}x+\frac{5^{3} }{4^{4} } x=(\frac{5}{4})^{4}x.

So  the formula to calculate the number of trees in the fourth year  is  

(\frac{5}{4} )^{4} x, we know that all of the trees thrived and there were 6250 at the end of 4 year period, then  

6250=(\frac{5}{4} )^{4}x⇒x=\frac{6250*4^{4} }{5^{4} }= \frac{10*5^{4}*4^{4} }{5^{4} }=2560.

Therefore the number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.

The quotient of a number and 35 is 100. Create an equation, solve it, and then tell what that number is
kobusy [5.1K]
X/35 = 100...multiply both sides by 35
x = 100 * 35
x = 3500
