Solve for x: 1/8-2/×=5someone pls help me ASAP

Mathematics

Begin by subtracting 1/8 from both sides to get - \frac{2}{x} =5- \frac{1}{8} and get a common denominator of 8 on the right:- \frac{2}{x} = \frac{40}{8} - \frac{1}{8}.  Now simplify and cross-multiply: 39x = -16 andx = -16/39

Answer: r=6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Substitute for the known variables</u>

we know that the formula to find the volume of a cylinder is <u>V= πr²h</u>

π= 3.14

h= 12

r= ?

v=1,357

Plugging the numbers we know into the formula, we get:

1,357= 3.14xr²x12

1,357= 3.14x12xr² (because with the commutative property of multiplication you can multiply in any order)

1,357= 37.68 x r²

<u>Step 2: Get the variable term (the letter term) on the left</u>

37.68 x r²= 1,357

Now, divide by 37.68. (I know to divide because when you switch the 37.68x r² the other way around to  r²x37.68, you are clearly multiplying and must do the inverse operation (opposite of multiplication; division) to solve the problem.

So,

r²= 1357÷37.68

r²= 36.0138004 ----> about 36.

r²= 36

This equation isn't over yet because we still have the exponent on the r. Whenever you see a letter squared (to the power 2) in an equation, the "inverse operation" is to take the square root of both sides. Look:

r²= 36

The square root of  r² is just r, because r x r =  r²

The square root of 36 is 6, because 6x6=36.

Now we have :

r= 6

Step 3: Check

Now we have all the variables. To check to make sure the radius is correct, "plug in"

V= π r²h

1,357= 3.14x6²x12

1,357= 3.14x36x12

1,357= 113.04x12

1,357= 1356.48

They said in the question that the volume is APPROXIMATLEY 1357, so I can just round 1356.48 --> 1356.5---> 1357. Now I am sure that the radius is 6.

Hope this helps :)) also brainliest would be appreciated  :D

Tucker bought a new speaker priced at $45 and the sales tax is 7%. What is the total cost of the speaker after tax?
OleMash [197]
The total cost is $41.85


Amount Saved = 45 x 7 / 100
Amount Saved = 315 / 100
Amount Saved = $3.15 (answer).
In other words, a 7% discount for a item with original price of $45 is equal to $3.15 (Amount Saved).
Note that to find the amount saved, just multiply it by the percentage and divide by 100.

Delta makes 12-volt car batteries. These batteries are known to be normally
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = 0.5188

The percentage of that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(3≤X≤4) = 52%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

<em>Given that the sample size n =12 -volt car batteries</em>

<em>Let  'X' be a Random variable in a normal distribution</em>

<em>Given that mean of the normal distribution = 45 months</em>

<em>Given that the Standard deviation of the normal distribution = 8months</em>

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

Let  X₁ = 3 years = 12 × 3 = 36 months

Z_{1} = \frac{x_{1} -mean}{S.D} = \frac{36-45}{8} = -1.125

Let X₂ = 4 years  = 12 × 4 = 48 months

Z_{2} = \frac{x_{2} -mean}{S.D} = \frac{48-45}{8} = 0.375

<u><em>Step(iii)</em></u>:-

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = P(-1.125≤Z≤0.375)

                   = P(Z≤0.375) - P(Z≤-1.125)

                   = 0.5 +A(0.375) - (0.5-A(1.125)

                   = 0.5 + 0.1480 - (0.5 -0.3708)

                  = 0.1480 + 0.3708

                 = 0.5188

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = 0.5188

The percentage of that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(3≤X≤4) = 52%
