The answer is x=10
Explanation:
When you set up the equation you have to cancel out the 6 by adding 6 on both sides like this -
5x-6=44
+6 +6
You then wind up getting
5x=50
Then the last step is to divide by 5 on each side.
5/5x=50/5
X=10

A students cost for last semester at her community college was $2500. She spent $475 of that on books.what percent of last semes
max2010maxim [7]
It is 19%!! :) an explanation is:
We assume, that the number 2500 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 2500, so we can write it down as 100%=2500.
4. We know, that x% equals 475 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=475.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2500
2) x%=475
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=2500/475
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 475 is what percent of 2500

100%/x%=2500/475
(100/x)*x=(2500/475)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.2631578947368*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.2631578947368) to get x
100/5.2631578947368=x
19=x
x=19

now we have:
475 is 19% of 2500

how much of a 10% syrup solution should be added to 2 liters of a 30% syrup solution to get 20% syrup solution?
rewona [7]
<span>10x + 30(2) = 20(x + 2)
10x + 60 = 20x + 40
10x = 20
answer
x = 2 liters
So you would need 2 liters of the 10% solution to make the 30% solution 20%.</span>

Convert this into a standard number<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10%5E%7B12%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="10^{12}" alt="1
jeka57 [31]

10^12 in standard number is 1000000000000

<h3>How to convert the number?</h3>

The number is given as:

10^{12

Expand the expression

10^{12} = 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 *10 * 10 * 10 * 10*10 * 10 * 10 * 10

Evaluate the product

10^{12} = 1000000000000

Hence, 10^12 in standard number is 1000000000000

The length is 3 inches more than the width period the width is 2 inches more than the height. The volume is 120 in.³. What is th
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

the dimension of the box is : 8 by 5 by 3

Length = 8

Width = 5

Height = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x,y and z represent the length, width and height of the box.

Given;

The length is 3 inches more than the width

x = y+3 .......1

the width is 2 inches more than the height

y = z + 2

z = y-2 .........2

Volume = length×width×height = xyz = 120 in^3

xyz = 120 ........3

Substituting equation 1 and 2 into 3

(y+3)×y ×(y-2) = 120

y(y^2+y-6) = 120

y^3 + y^2 - 6y - 120 = 0

Solving the polynomial equation we have;

y = 5

From equation 1;

x = y+3 = 5+3

x = 8

From equation 2;

z = y-2 = 5-2

z = 3

Therefore, the dimension of the box is

8 by 5 by 3

Length = 8

Width = 5

Height = 3

Which explains why the sequence 216, 12, 2/3 is arithmetic or geometric.
DiKsa [7]
C, because every time you multiply the preceding number by 1/18, you get the next number in the sequence. It's not D, because an arithmetic sequence would be 216-1/18 (a difference of 1/18) rather than it decreasing by a factor.
