Solve equation a+6a-9=30

1 answer:

3 0

To solve any equation, we have to get the variables and the constants (numbers) on opposite sides of the equals sign.

First, we have to combine the like terms on the left side of the equation, resulting in

7a - 9 = 30

Then, because we want the constants on the right side of the equation, we have to +9 to cancel out the -9 on the left side.

7a=39

Next, the a has a coefficient of 7, which it is multiplied by. To undo multiplication, you have to divide. Therefore, we should divide both sides by 7.

a= 5 4/7 or 5.57142857143

In improper fraction form, a = 39/7, as this fraction cannot be simplified any farther.

Carly solved a quadratic equation by completing the square, but her work has errors. Identify the first error in Carly's work.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Her first error was adding the wrong number to both sides. Instead of 4², it should be 2²

Step-by-step explanation:

When completing the square, the number that needs to be added to both sides is (b/2)²

In this problem, b is 4. So, Carly should have added 2² to both sides, but she added 4² instead.

So, her first error was adding 4² to both sides instead of 2²

Express in terms of logarithm without exponents

sdas [7]

$\bf log_{{ a}}(xy)\implies log_{{ a}}(x)+log_{{ a}}(y)
\\ \quad \\
% Logarithm of rationals
\\ \quad \\
% Logarithm of exponentials
log_{{ a}}\left( x^{{ b}} \right)\implies {{ b}}\cdot log_{{ a}}(x)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
log_b(xy^2z^{-6}\implies log_b(x)+log_b(y^2)+log_b(z^{-6})
\\\\\\log_b(x)+2log_b(y)-6log_b(z)$

now, the one below that, which is equivalent to that? well, just look above it

What is the area of the sector with a central angle of 49° and a radius of 11 cm? Use 3.14 for pi and round your final answer to

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{51.71 cm}^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angle θ is in radians, the formula for the area (A) of a sector of a circle is

A = ½r²θ

If θ is in degrees

$A = \dfrac{1}{2}r^{2}\theta \times \dfrac{\pi \text{ rad}}{180^{\circ}}= \pi r^{2}\times\dfrac{\theta }{360}$

Data:

θ = 49°

r = 11 cm

Calculation:

$\begin{array}{rcl}A& = &3.14\times 11^{2}\times\dfrac{49}{360}\\\\ & = &3.14 \times 121 \times 0.1361\\ & = & \mathbf{51.71}\\\end{array}\\\text{The area of the sector is }\boxed{\textbf{51.71 cm}^{2}}$

Help please, Which expression does not belong? Explain your reasoning.

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

My best answer is option number 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the first 3 answers follow a specific pattern in addition and division, i.e. they only go up to 4 different numbers, whereas with the 4th option, that changes. Not only that, but if you look closely, the 4th option adds 6 to itself 5 times, that's the same as 6x5, which equals 30, so if you divide 30 by 5, its almost pointless seeing as how you already know it's gonna get you 6.
