How do I do this 3x + 5.2 = 2 - 5x

Mathematics

Answer:

x = -.4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5.2 = 2 - 5x

Add 5x to each side

3x+5x + 5.2 = 2 - 5x+5x

8x +5.2 = 2

Subtract 5.2 from each side

8x +5.2 - 5.2 = 2-5.2

8x = -3.2

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = -3.2/8

x = -.4

Answer:

x= -0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5.2=2-5x

<em>Add 5x to both sides</em>

8x+5.2=2

<em>Subtract 5.2 from both sides</em>

8x= -3.2

<em>Divide both sides by 8</em>

x= -0.4

Tickets to the zoo cost $12 for adults and $8 for children. The school has a budget of $240 for the field trip. An equation repr
Oxana [17]

Answer:

18 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

240 = 12x +8y

<em>Required (missing part of the question):</em>

<em>Number of children that will be able to go to the zoo if 8 adult tickets are purchased</em>

 

<em>The graph is missing. However, the question can be solved without the graph.</em>

<em />

From the question and equation, we can deduce the following:

  • x represents adults
  • y represents children

So, when 8 adult tickets were sold.

This means

x = 8

Substitute 8 for x in 240 = 12x +8y

240= 12 * 8 + 8y

240= 96+ 8y

Subtract 96 from both sides

240 - 96 = 96 - 96 + 8y

144 =  8y

8y = 144

Solve for y

y= \frac{144}{8}

y= 18

<em>This means that 18 children will be able to go</em>

Veronica is choosing between two health clubs after how many months will the total cost for each health club be the same
Assoli18 [71]

Question:

Veronica is choosing between two health clubs. after how many months will the total cost for each health club be the​ same? yoga studio a: membership: $24.00 monthly fee: 21.50. yoga studio b: membership: $41.00 monthly fee: $17.25

Answer:

It takes 4 years for the total cost of each club to become equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

For yoga studio A:

membership: $24.00

monthly fee: 21.50.

For yoga studio B:

membership: $41.00

monthly fee: $17.25

To Find:

Number of months after which the total cost for each health club be the​ same = ?

Solution:

Let   x be the number of months of membership, and   y  be equal the total cost.

For Yoga club A

y = 21.50 x + 24

For Yoga club B    

y = 17.25 x + 41.00

we know that the prices,   y , would be equal, we can set the two equations equal to each other.

21.50 x + 24 =17.25 x+ 41.00

Grouping the like terms,

21.50x - 17.25 x= 41.00 -  24

4.25x=17

x=\frac{17}{4.25}

x = 4

At Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Professor Snape was concerned about grade inflation, and suggested that the schoo
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answers:

The z scores are approximately:

  • Care of Magical Creatures:  z = 0.333
  • Defense Against the Dark Arts:  z = 0.583
  • Transfiguration:  z = -0.263
  • Potions: z = -0.533

From those scores, we can say:

  • Best grade = Defense Against the Dark Arts
  • Worst grade = Potions

=====================================================

Further Explanation:

We'll need to convert each given score to a corresponding standardized z score.

The formula to use is

z = (x - mu)/sigma

where,

  • x = given grade for each class
  • mu = mean
  • sigma = standard deviation

Let's find the z score for the Care of Magical Creatures class

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.80 - 3.75)/(0.15)

z = 0.333 approximately

Repeat this process for the Defense Against the Dark Arts score.

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.60 - 3.25)/(0.60)

z = 0.583 approximately

And for the Transfiguration class as well

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (3.10 - 3.20)/(0.38)

z = -0.263 approximately

The negative z score means his grade below the average, whereas earlier the other scores were above the average since he got positive z scores.

Now do the final class (Potions) to get this z score

z = (x - mu)/sigma

z = (2.50 - 2.90)/(0.75)

z = -0.533 approximately

This grade is below average as well.

----------------------------

To summarize, we have these z scores

  • Care of Magical Creatures:  z = 0.333
  • Defense Against the Dark Arts:  z = 0.583
  • Transfiguration:  z = -0.263
  • Potions: z = -0.533

Harry did his best in Defense Against the Dark Arts because the z score of 0.583 (approximate) is the largest of the four z scores. On the other hand, his worst grade is in Potions because -0.533 is the lowest z score.
