Here are some things you should know when solving algebraic equations.
If you add an expression to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation will have the same solution set as the original equation. In other words, they will be equivalent. This is true for all operations. As long both sides are treated the same, the equation will stay balanced.
You will also need to know how to combine like terms. But what are like terms to begin with? Like terms are defined as two terms having the same variable(s) (or lack thereof) and are raised to the same power. In mathematics, something raised to the first power stays the same. So, 5x and 10x are like terms because they both have the same variable and are raised to the first power. You don’t see the exponents because it doesn’t change the value of the terms.
To combine like terms, simplify add the coefficients and keep the common variable(s) and exponent.
The distributive property is another important rule you will need to understand.
The distributive property is used mostly for simplifying parentheses in expressions/equations.
For example, how would you get rid of the parentheses here?
6(x + 1)
If there wasn’t an unknown in between the parentheses, you could just add then multiply. That is what the distributive property solves. The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, now we can simplify our expression.
6(x + 1) = 6x + 6
Now let's solve your equation.
9v = 8 + v
8v = 8 <-- Subtract v from each side
v = 1 <-- Divide both sides by 8
So, v is equal to 1.
⓵ To calculate the volume of a right circular cylinder, the formula is π times the radius of the circular base² time the height of the cylinder.
⓶ Now that we know that the equation to calculate the volume of a right circular cylinder is :
V = π x (r²) x h
You need to find the numbers to replace the volume (V) and the height (h) in the formula.
We already know that the volume is 320 square feet and that the height is 20 feet.
So we are left with a formula looking like this :
320 = π x (r²) x 20
⓷ Now we need to find the radius of the circular base! To do so, you need to solve this equation and isolate the “r”. Start by simplifying the right side :
320 = π x (r²) x 20
÷20 ÷20
↓
16 = π x r²
÷π ÷π
↓
5,09 ⋍ r²
√ √
↓
2,26 feet ⋍ r
⓸ Now that we knoe the value of the radius of the circular base, all there’s left to do is multiply this number by two in order to find the diameter of the water tank :
2,26 x 2 = d
↓
4,51 feet ⋍ d
So your final answer is : the diameter of the water tank is about 4,51 feet.
** Since I devided by “π”, all the answers I wrote from that point are rounded to the nearest hundredths just to make things easier to visualize, but I kept all of the decimals when doing the calculations. So it is possible that your answer might differ slightly from mine if you use the rounded numbers to calculate everything. Just keep that in mind!
I hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
Step-by-step explanation:
To find unit rate
1 bag = 36÷ 3 = 12
So unit rate = $12
The hundreds place is underlined: 16,<u>4</u>73.
Look at the number to the right of the hundreds place. It is a 7. Because 7 is greater than 5, round up
16473 rounded to the nearest hundred is 16500
Next, she takes the number to round to the nearest thousand.
Remember that 5 and greater round up.
16500 rounded to the nearest thousand is 17000
17000 is your answer
hope this helps
