ax - b = c

add b to both sides

ax - b + b = c + b

simplifying

ax =  c + b

divide both sides by a

ax / a =  (c + b) / a

simplifying

x =  (c + b) / a

Answer:

a

   y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}

b

      x(t) =  x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }

c

      \lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    \frac{dy}{y} =  -\beta dt

Now integrating both sides

     ln y  =  \beta t + c

Now taking the exponent of both sides

       y(t) =  e^{\beta t + c}

=>     y(t) =  e^{\beta t} e^c

Let  e^c =  C

So

      y(t) = C e^{\beta t}

Now  from the question we are told that

      y(0) =  y_o

Hence

        y(0) = y_o  = Ce^{\beta * 0}

=>     y_o = C

So

        y(t) = y_o e^{\beta t}

From the question we are told that

      \frac{dx}{dt}  = -\alpha xy

substituting for y

      \frac{dx}{dt}  = - \alpha x(y_o e^{-\beta t })

=>   \frac{dx}{x}  = -\alpha y_oe^{-\beta t} dt

Now integrating both sides

         lnx = \alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c

Now taking the exponent of both sides

        x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} + c}

=>     x(t) = e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} } e^c

Let  e^c  =  A

=>  x(t) =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }

Now  from the question we are told that

      x(0) =  x_o

So  

      x(0)=x_o =K e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta * 0} }

=>    x_o = K e^{\frac {\alpha y_o  }{\beta } }

divide both side  by    (K * x_o)

=>    K = x_o e^{\frac {\alpha y_o  }{\beta } }

So

    x(t) =x_o e^{\frac {-\alpha y_o  }{\beta } } *  e^{\alpha \frac{y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }

=>   x(t)= x_o e^{\frac{-\alpha * y_o }{\beta} + \frac{\alpha y_o}{\beta } e^{-\beta t} }

=>    x(t) =  x_o e^{\frac{\alpha y_o }{\beta }[e^{-\beta t} - 1] }

Generally as  t tends to infinity ,  e^{- \beta t} tends to zero  

so

    \lim_{t \to \infty} x(t) = x_oe^{\frac{-\alpha y_o}{\beta } }

2X+4=20+5X<br>A)1/2 B)-1/2 C)2 D)-2​
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

It seems that your options aren't correct as the right answer is -5.3333... (recurring)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  2x + 4 = 20 + 5x   (subtract by the smallest unknown)

  -2x                  -2x

2)  4        = 20 + 3x

    -20      -20    (now subtract each side by 20 as we want to leave the unknown on one side and another number on the other side.

3) -16       = 3x   (Divide each side by 3)

   ÷3        = ÷3

4) -5.33333... = x

<h3>Now we have found x but if you're unsure you can substitute to see if your answer is correct.</h3><h3>2 x -5.3333 + 4 = -6.6666</h3><h3>20 + 5 x -5.3333= -6.6665</h3><h3>Our answer is correct! (When answers are rounded, it is equal to the same thing).</h3>
