Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 20 = 2x - 3(3x + 2)

7x - 20 = 2x - 9x - 6

7x - 2x + 9x = - 6 + 20

14x = 14

x = 14/14

x = 1

Answer:

7x-20=2x-3(3x+2)

We move all terms to the left:

7x-20-(2x-3(3x+2))=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -(2x-3(3x+2)), so:

2x-3(3x+2)

We multiply parentheses

2x-9x-6

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x-6

Back to the equation:

-(-7x-6)

We get rid of parentheses

7x+7x+6-20=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

14x-14=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

14x=14

x=14/14

x=1

(a) Work out the reciprocal of 1.25

Oxana [17]

Answer:

0.8 OR $\frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The reciprocal of any number is the number that it multiplies by to equal 1.

The reciprocal can be found by simply converting the number into a fraction and then 'flipping' the fraction as any number multiplied by its reciprocal is 1.

E.g.

No. X/Y * Y/X (its reciprocal) = 1

$\frac{x}{y} *\frac{y}{x} =\frac{xy}{xy} =1$

So, to find the reciprocal of 1.25,we should first convert 1.25 to a fraction.

1.25 = 125/100

$\frac{125/25}{100/25}=\frac{5}{4}$

Now we just flip 5/4 to get our reciprocal:

$\frac{4}{5}$ = 0.8

Test: 0.8 * 1.25 = 1

The reciprocal of 1.25 ( $\frac{5}{4}$ ) is 0.8 ( $\frac{4}{5}$ ).

Hope this helped!

2. a) How many milliseconds (ms) are in 1 second? 1. b) How many microseconds (μs) are in 1 second? 2. c) How many nanoseconds (

olchik [2.2K]

Answer and explanation:

a) How many milliseconds (ms) are in 1 second?

1 second = 1000 milliseconds

1 second = $10^3$ milliseconds

b) How many microseconds (μs) are in 1 second?

1 second = 1000000 microseconds

1 second = $10^6$ microseconds

c) How many nanoseconds (ns) are in 1 millisecond?

1 millisecond = 1000000 nanoseconds

1 millisecond = $10^6$ nanoseconds

d) How many microseconds are in 1 millisecond?

1 millisecond = 1000 microseconds

1 millisecond = $10^3$ microseconds

e) How many nanoseconds are in 1 microsecond?

1 microsecond = 1000 nanoseconds

1 microsecond = $10^3$ nanoseconds

f) How many kilobytes (KB) are in 1 gigabyte (GB)?

1 gigabyte = 1000000 kilobytes

1 gigabyte = $10^6$ kilobytes

g) How many kilobytes are in 1 megabyte (MB)?

1 megabyte = 1000 kilobytes

1 megabyte = $10^3$ kilobytes

h) How many megabytes are in 1 gigabyte?

1 gigabyte = 1000 megabytes

1 gigabyte = $10^3$ megabytes

i) How many bytes are in 20 megabytes?

1 megabytes = 1000000 bytes

20 megabytes = 20000000 bytes

20 megabytes = $2\times 10^7$ bytes

j) How many kilobytes are in 2 gigabytes?

1 megabyte = 1000 kilobytes

2 megabyte = 2000 kilobytes

2 megabyte = $2\times 10^3$ kilobytes
