Solve the equation. 3(x−9)=30

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must distribute 3(x-9) = 30

3x - 27 = 30

Now, that we've distributed this equation, we can proceed.

Secondly, since there is a subtraction sign in front of 27, we must do the opposite, addition.

Add 27 to 27 and 30:

3x - 27 = 30

-27 + 27 = 0

30 +  27 = 57

Furthermore, -27 + 27 is 0, so it cancels itself out. Also, since we added 30 and 27 and got 57, replace 30 with 57.

3x = 57

Lastly, divide 57 by the number in front of coefficient, 3.

57/3=19

Therefore, x=19.

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 9) = 30

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the binomial.

x - 9 = 10

Add 9 to both sides to isolate x.

x = 19

Check your answer by plugging x = 19 back into the equation.

3(x - 9) = 30

3(19 - 9) = 30

Subtract.

3(10) = 30

Multiply.

30 = 30

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

3x/4 +2/3=x/3 find the exact answer to the simplest form
slega [8]
First, we need to get rid of the denominator. to do so, we will simply multiply all terms by 12 (which is the result of 3*4).
(3x/4)(12)+(2/3)(12)=(x/3)(12)
9x + 8 = 4x
then we will separate the variable in one side and solve to get its value
9x-4x = -8
5x = -8
x = -8/5

A group of high school athletes has an average GPA of 2.7 with a standard deviation of 0.9. a)Find the percentage of athletes wh
mart [117]

Answer:

a) The percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665 is 87.49%.

b) John's GPA is 3.645.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 2.7, \sigma = 0.9

a)Find the percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1.665. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1.665 - 2.7}{0.9}

Z = -1.15

Z = -1.15 has a pvalue of 0.1251

1 - 0.1251 = 0.8749

The percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665 is 87.49%.

b) John's GPA is more than 85.31 percent of the athletes in the study. Compute his GPA.

His GPA is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8531. So it is X when Z = 1.05.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.05 = \frac{X - 2.7}{0.9}

X - 2.7 = 1.05*0.9

X = 3.645

John's GPA is 3.645.
