Subtract 24 from both sides (-45t=-8) then divide both sides by -45 (t=0.177)
6a-(n-1)(3a) is the nth term
Expanding we get 6a-3an+3a=9a-3an=3a(3-n)
SOLUTION: nth term is 3a(3-n)
Answer:
A) x=9/2 B) x=-1/5, 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-9=27/1-5x
3x-9=27-5x
3x-(-5x)-9=27
3x+5x-9=27
8x-9=27
8x=27+9
8x=36
x=36/8
simplify
x=9/2
Answer: x=9/2
-----------------------------
10x-1/x=3
(10x^2-1)/x=3
10x^2-1=3*x
10x^2-1=3x
10x^2-3x-1=0
factor out the trinomial,
find two numbers that when they multiply,
you get the third term, which is -1 in this case.
When you add those 2 numbers, you get the second term,
which is -3 in this case.
(5x+1)(2x-1)=0
apply the zero property from here,
set 5x+1=0 and 2x-1=0 and solve for x.
5x=0-1=-1, x=-1/5,
2x=0+1=1, 2x=1, x=1/2.
So x=-1/5, 1/2.
Answer:
<em>(</em><em>2</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>3</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
- 6x² - 5x - 4
- 6x²- (8 - 3)x - 4
- 6x²- 8x + 3x - 4
- 2x (3x - 4) +1 (3x - 4)
- (2x + 1) (3x - 4)
Answer:
written below for problem #2
Step-by-step explanation:
a. ratio is 12:40 since they're are 12 non fiction and 40 graphic novels
b. 40:12 (same reasoning as part a)
c. 6:40 for the ratio of science fiction to graphic novel, 12:6 for the ration of non fiction to science fiction, x:6 for the ratio of the unknown amount of fiction books to the science fiction books. (x is just there as a variable so it just represents fiction books)
