Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 26+2c=312

Now we solve for c.

Subtract 26 on both sides giving 2c=286

So c=143

This is the equation in numbers translated (n is a number)

26 + 2n = 312

We have to find what the number (n) is. This means we must isolate n. To do this you must subtract 26 to both sides

26 - 26 + 2n = 312 - 26

0 + 2n = 286

2n = 286

To further isolate n you must divide 2 to both sides

2n/2 =286/2

n = 143

Check:

26 + 143*2 = 312

26 + 286 = 312

312 = 312

The number is 143

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! I hope you are having a nice day.

We can solve this equation in a single step, we just need a bit of theory and a graph.

We can first see that its in $y=mx+b$ form. Which is also known as Slope-Intercept form.

This means that we know the following.

$b$ is the y coordinate of the y intercept.
$m$ is the slope of the line.

Since we know that, we can see that from our equation that the slope of the line is 3 and the y intercept is (0,-7).

Now that we've gotten that, we can start graphing.

The y intercept is -7 so we can plot (0,-7) as one of our points.

The slope of 3 means that we got up 3 units then right a single unit.

Therefore, another point could be (1,-4).

With our two points, we can create our graph by creating a straight line through those two points and therefore plotting our line.

Cheers!

Calcula y comprueba las ecuaciones: plisss lo necesito alguien me puede ayudar a) 2X = 6 b) 10 + Z = 20 c) P + 9 = 11 d) 3X + 8

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

a) x=3

b) z=10

c) P= 2

d) X=7

e) U=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Resolver una ecuación consiste en hallar los valores de la variable que hacen cierta la igualdad.

a) 2x= 6

El coeficiente es el número junto a la variable. En este caso, el coeficiente es 2. Para eliminar este número en la expresión 2x, debido a que la variable x esta multiplicada por 2, deberás dividir ambos lados de la ecuación entre 2, debido a que la operación opuesta de la multiplicación es la división.

(2x)÷2=6÷2

x= 3

Comprobar la solución de una ecuación se hace al remplazar la variable en una ecuación con el valor de la solución. La solución debería satisfacer la ecuación cuando se ingresa en esta.

En este caso:

2*3= 6

6=6

b) 10 + z= 20

En este caso se debe sumar o restar la constante que se encuentra acompañando a la variable en ambos lados de la ecuación de manera de aislar el término de la variable. En este caso:

10 - 10 + z= 20 -10

z= 10

Comprobación:

10 + z=20

10 + 10=20

20=20

c) P + 9= 11

P +9 - 9= 11 -9

P=2

Comprobación:

2 + 9= 11

11=11

d) 3X + 8 = 29

En este caso, se suma o resta la constante en ambos lados de la ecuación y luego se elimina el coeficiente de la variable mediante la división o multiplicación. Esto es:

3X + 8 - 8= 29 - 8

3X= 21

3X ÷3= 21÷3

X=7

Comprobación:

3*7 + 8=29

21+8=29

29=29

e) 2U + 8= 10

2U + 8 - 8= 10 -8

2U= 2

2U ÷2= 2÷2

U=1

Comprobación:

2*1 + 8= 10

2 + 8= 10

10=10

A prism is filled with 48 cubes with a side length of 1/2 unit. What is the volume of the prism in cubic units? Please I need he

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is 6 unit³

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the volume of the prism we first need to calculate the volume of each cube. The volume of a cube is given by the formula below:

volume cube = a³

Where a is the length of the side of the cube. So each cube has a volume of:

volume cube = (1/2)³ = 1/8 unit³

Since the cubes are filling the prism, the volume of the prism is the sum of the volume of all the cubes, in this case 48. Since all the cubes are equal, we can multiply the number of cubes by the volume of one cube in order to calculate the volume of the prism. We have:

volume prism = 48*volume cube

volume prism = 48*(1/8) = 6 unit³
