The sum of 3/4 7/12 is 4/3
0.25r-0.125+0.5r=0.5r
0.75r-0.125=0.5r
-0.125= -0.25r
r=0.5
Answer:
x = −6
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to start off by simplifying the equation! Then, I use inverse operations to narrow it down until I reach the answer!
5x + 12= −18
5x + 12 <u>− 12</u>= −18 <u>− 12
</u>
5x = −30
5x<u>/5</u> = -30<u>/5</u>
<u>x = -6</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your exponential formula is in the form y = ab^x. In this form, the coefficient 'a' is the initial value, the y-intercept, the value when x=0. The value 'b' is the growth factor, which is 1 more than the growth rate per increment of x. This problem is asking for the growth rate to be expressed as a percentage.
__
Given p(x) = 78500(1.02^x), we can compare to the exponential function form to see that ...
- a = 78,500
- b = 1.02 = 1 +0.02 = 1 +2%
The value of x is zero in the year 2000, so the population that year is ...
p(0) = a = 78,500
The increase per year is the value of 'b' with 1 subtracted:
growth rate = 2% per year
Answer:
x=5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of ABCD=85
The perimeter is everything around the outside added together.
Form an equation:
3x+4+4x+6x-11+5x-7=85
Collect the like terms:
Like terms are terms that have the same powers and coefficient.
3x+4x+6x+5x=18x
4-11-7= -14
Put it back into an equation:
18x-14=85
Do inverse operations to find out what x is:
85+14=99
18x=99
99÷18=5.5 (we divide because, in algebra, when a number is next to a letter, it means times and as we want the inverse, you would have to divide)
x=5.5
Hope this helps :)
