<u>Answer</u>

$\boxed {64}$

<u>Detailed Explanation </u>

Let's set up a proportion.

$\frac{3}{4.8} = \frac{40}{x}$

Now that we have set up a proportion we would need to cross multiply.

3*x=3x

40*4.8= 192

Solve for x

$3x=192$

$\frac{192}{3} = 64$

Therefore, the answer would be 64.

the equation that should be required is 0 = 2t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the hours of television be t

And, for hours outdoor be o

As the hours outdoors would be twice the hours of television so the equation is

0 = 2t

Therefore the equation that should be required is 0 = 2t

5-x=12 help plss now

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

5-x=12

To solve for x, you must first make the equation equal to x (to make x alone on one side).

5 - x = 12

-5 -5

-x = 7

-x(-1)=7(-1)

x = -7

Solve the system by elimination. . 4x-9y=-21 , -4x-3y=9

Ivan

(-3, 1)
4x-9y=-21
+-4x-3y=9
-12y= -12
y=1

4x- 9(1)= -21
4x-9=-21
+9 +9
4x= -12
x=-3

Solve for 2x^2-4x+5=6

Softa [21]

To solve for a variable, you need to get it (x) by itself.

2x² - 4x + 5 = 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
2x² - 4x - 1 = 0 Plug this into the Quadratic Formula

a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -1
x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in your values
x = $\frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4(2)(-1)} }{2(2)}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 + 8} }{4}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm 2\sqrt{6} }{4}$ Simplify by removing a 2 from every term
x = $\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify by taking the fraction apart
x = $\frac{2}{2} \pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Change $\frac{2}{2}$ to 1
x = 1 $\pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify $\frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ to $\sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$
x = 1 $\pm \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$
