Answer:
x = 3/2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - 2x = 3
(You have to subtract 6 on both sides so it can cancel out)
6 - 6 - 2x = 3 - 6
-2x = -3
(Now, you divide -2 on both sides to isolate the x)
-2/(-2)x = -3/(-2)
x = 3/2
Answer:
I think that there might be some complex differential equation
stuff going on here if this were in the real world, but for the sake of this problem... may I suggest that the tank is filling up at a rate of
1/8 of a tank per hour...
it is evaporating at a rate of 1/12 tank per hour
you can subtract the rates
1/8 - 1/12 = 12/96- 8/96 = 3/96 = 1/32 tank/hr
so to fill the tank it should take 32 hours...
I think the logic and math work... lets see if someone else will verify this analysis?
Step-by-step explanation:
(5.0 x 10²) x (3.0 x 10⁸) = 1.5 x 10¹¹ meters = 1.5 x 10⁸ km.
Answer:
8 + 2x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The initial number of push-ups he does in each day = 8,
And, the number of push-ups, he increases per day = 2,
Let x be the number of days after he will reach his target of 30 push-ups,
Since, the number of push-ups she will increase in x days = 2x,
Thus, the number of push-ups she will do after x days = 8 + 2x,
⇒ 8 + 2x = 30, which is the required equation.
