Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

7(2x - 5) = 21

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 7:                   2x - 5 = 3
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                2x = 8
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                         x = 4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                  7(2(4) - 5) = 21
  2. Multiply:                             7(8 - 5) = 21
  3. Subtract:                            7(3) = 21
  4. Multiply:                             21 = 21

Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.

What is the volume of the composite figure? (Round to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for x.)
marshall27 [118]

The volume of the composite figure is the third option 385.17 cubic centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The composite figure consists of a cone and a half-sphere on top.

We will have to calculate the volumes of the cone and the half-sphere separately and then add them to obtain the total volume.

Step 2:

The volume of a cone is determined by multiplying \frac{1}{3} with π, the square of the radius (r²) and height (h). Here we substitute π as 3.1415.

The radius is 4 cm and the height is 15 cm.

The volume of the cone :

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h = \frac{1}{3} (3.1415)(4^{2} )(15) = 251.32 cubic cm.

Step 3:

The area of a half-sphere is half of a full sphere.

The volume of a sphere is given by multiplying \frac{4}{3} with π and the cube of the radius (r³).

Here the radius is 4 cm. We take π as 3.1415.

The volume of a full sphere \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3} = \frac{4}{3} (3.1415) (4^{3}) = 268.07 cubic cm.

The volume of the half-sphere =\frac{1}{2} (268.07) = 134.037 cubic cm.

Step 4:

The total volume = The volume of the cone + The volume of the half sphere,

The total volume 251.32+134.037 = 385.357 cub cm. This is closest to the third option 385.17 cubic centimeters.

Help....!! I need to solve this simultaneous equation y=x-2 and y=3x+5 With working out if possible please....
Blababa [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Y= x - 2. Y = 3x + 5

Putting value of y

x - 2 = 3x + 5

-2 - 5 = 3x - x

-7 = 2x

-7/2 = x

Putting value of x

Y = 3(-7/2) + 5

Y = - 10.5 + 5

Y = - 5.5

Answer:

11 Students

Step-by-step explanation:

It is hard to explain in my opinion but I can try. For the stem column you, basically factor out the first digit of the number. Then the leaf column you, put the second digit of each number in your data set.
