if you are looking for.... 2(B-4)= (6)b
2b - 8 = 6b
2b - 6b= 8
-4b=8
so b= -2
the question is b-4 divided by 6 equals b/2
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
If a population is decreasing by 8% we can multiply the population by 92% (1-.08)
which means we have the following equation
population=15000(.92)ⁿ
where n is the number of years
we want to know when the population will be 10,000 so we write
10,000=15,000(.92)ⁿ
.66667=.92ⁿ
a rule we have is
which means that
compute this and get
4.867
round this up to 5
Answer:
x = 1 or x = -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
2 x^2 + 3 x - 2 = 3
Divide both sides by 2:
x^2 + (3 x)/2 - 1 = 3/2
Add 1 to both sides:
x^2 + (3 x)/2 = 5/2
Add 9/16 to both sides:
x^2 + (3 x)/2 + 9/16 = 49/16
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 3/4)^2 = 49/16
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 3/4 = 7/4 or x + 3/4 = -7/4
Subtract 3/4 from both sides:
x = 1 or x + 3/4 = -7/4
Subtract 3/4 from both sides:
Answer: x = 1 or x = -5/2
The answer is 0.82 so he eat 82 percent of the candy bar
Answer:
The quadratic formula: (-b+-sqrtb^2-4ac)/2a
Plugging in the values of a=1, b=9, and c=10, the roots of the equation are: -7.7 and -1.3.
So, the first option is correct.
