Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+6=30

Get the co-efficient by itself

3x +6=30

-6. -6

3x=24

Divide by 3 on both sides

24/3

x =8

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, we want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.

3x+6=30

6 is being added on to 3x. The opposite of addition is subtraction. Subtract 6 from both sides.

3x+6-6=30-6

3x=30-6

3x=24

x is being multiplied by 3. The opposite of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3=24/3

x=24/3

x=8

Let's check our answer. Plug 8 in for x in the original equation.

Original equation: 3x+6=30

Substitute 8 for x: 3(8)+6=30

3(8)+6=30

24+6=30

30=30

The statement above is true, so we know that x is equal to 8.

Answer:

1. 5/6 ≥ 2/3

2. 1/5 ≤ 2/8

3. 9/10 ≥ 6/8

4. I can't see it's out of the pic

5. 7/8 ≥ 5/10

6. 2/5 ≥ 2/6

7. 1/3 ≤ 3/8

8. I can't see it's out of the pic.

9. 8/10 ≥ 3/4

10. 3/8 ≤ 11/12

11. 2/3 ≤ 10/12

12. Can't see :(

13. 3/8 ≤ 7/8

14. 2/4 = 4/8

15. 6/8 ≥ 8/12

16. Can't see

Step-by-step explanation: All you have to do is divide the numerator by the denominator to make it into a decimal. For instance....

5/6 = approximately 0.83

I hope this helps you! It took forever....

Jan and Wayne went to the store to buy some groceries. Jan bought 2 cans of corn beef hash and 3 cans of creamed chipped beef fo

marin [14]

You can solve this by using the system of equations.
Jan - 4.95 = 2H + 3C
Wayne - 5.45 = 3H + 2C

Use elimination.
-3(2H + 3C = 4.95)
2(3H + 2C = 5.45)

Solve. And you'll get:
-6H + (-9C) = -14.85
6H + 4C = 10.9

Cross out -6H and 6H because they cancel out. And you're left with:
-9C = -14.85
4C = 10.9

Add -9C with 4C, and -14.85 with 10.9.
-5C = -3.95

Divide each side with -5.
C = $0.79

Now to figure out what H is, just substitute the C in one of the equations with 0.79.
5.45 = 3H + 2(0.79)
5.45 = 3H + 1.58
-1.58 -1.58
3.87 = 3H
3.87/3 = 3/3(H)
1.29 = H

Finished!

Explain how you would solve 5x - 3 = 9. (there should be a minimum of 2<br> complete sentences). *

SpyIntel [72]

Haha, you first start off with adding 3 to both sides, cancelling the -3, and adding it to 9. you end up with 5x=12, in which you divide both sides by 5. you get 2 and 2/5 or 12/5! hope that helps :)

First, we are going to find the vertex of our quadratic. Remember that to find the vertex $(h,k)$ of a quadratic equation of the form $y=a x^{2} +bx+c$ , we use the vertex formula $h= \frac{-b}{2a}$ , and then, we evaluate our equation at $h$ to find $k$ .

We now from our quadratic that $a=2$ and $b=-32$ , so lets use our formula:
$h= \frac{-b}{2a}$
$h= \frac{-(-32)}{2(2)}$
$h= \frac{32}{4}$
$h=8$
Now we can evaluate our quadratic at 8 to find $k$ :
$k=2(8)^2-32(8)+56$
$k=2(64)-256+56$
$k=128-200$
$k=-72$
So the vertex of our function is (8,-72)

Next, we are going to use the vertex to rewrite our quadratic equation:
$y=a(x-h)^2+k$
$y=2(x-8)^2+(-72)$
$y=2(x-8)^2-72$
The x-coordinate of the minimum will be the x-coordinate of the vertex; in other words: 8.

We can conclude that:
The rewritten equation is $y=2(x-8)^2-72$
The x-coordinate of the minimum is 8
