3 times x minus 2/5 =8/5 what is x equal to

Mathematics

shutvik [7]3 years ago

Translating this word problem into an algebraic equation, we get:

3x - 2/5 = 8/5.

Let's combine the constants:  adding 2/5 to both sides of this equation yields  

3x = 10/5, or 3x = 2.

Solving for x:  x = 2/3

[(2/3)^2]^3 X (2/3)^2 ÷ (2/3)^8 ​
skad [1K]

Answer:

Reduce the expression, if possible, by cancelling the common factors.[(2/3)^2]^3 X (2/3)^2 ÷ (2/3)^8 ​ = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4/9^3 x (2/3)^2 ÷ (2/3)^8

4/9^3 x 4/9 ÷ (2/3)^8

4/9^3 x 4/9 divided by 256/6561

64/729 x 4/9 divided by 256/6561

= 1

PLEASE HELP!! I am very confused. WILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!!
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

x=80, y=15

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle on the opposite side of 100 will be equal to x

We know it is 180-100 so x=80

We know 6y=90

therfore y = 90/6 which equals 15

so y=15 and x=80

Pls help<br><br> Given: △ABC, CM⊥ AB, BC = 5, AB = 7<br> CA = 4 sqrt(2)<br> Find: CM
babymother [125]

Answer:

The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.

Step One

Set up the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32

BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25

Step Two

Subtract the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2  = 32

BM^2 + CM^2         = 25

(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7               (3)

Step three

Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)

49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7    

Step 4

Simplify And Solve

49 - 14BM = 7              Subtract 49 from both sides.

-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49

- 14BM = - 42              Divide by - 14

BM = -42 / - 14

BM = 3

Step  Five

Find CM

CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2

CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2        Subtract 3^2 from both sides.

CM^2 = 25 - 9            

CM^2 = 16                     Take the square root of both sides.        

sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)

CM = 4    < Answer
