<h3>Final answer: 6/5</h3>

<u />

<u>SOLUTION</u>

• -4 = 5(p -2)

-4 = (5)(p) + (5)(-2) • Distribute

-4 = 5p + (-10)

-4 = 5p - 10

• 5p - 10 = -4

• 5p - 10 + 10 = -4 + 10

5p = 6

• $\frac{5p}{5} = \frac{6}{5}$

p = $\frac{6}{5}$

simplify both sides of the equation
flip the equation
add 10 to both sides
divide both sides by 5
we would be getting the final answer of 6/5

The volumes of two cylindrical cans of the same shape vary directly as the cubes of their radii. If a can with a six-inch radius

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The second similar can with a radius of 24-inch radius will hold 12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volumes of the cylindrical can ∝ (The radius of the cans)³

The volume of first can, V₁ = 1¹/₂ pints

The radius of the first can, r₁ = 6-inch

The radius of the second can, r₂ = 24-inch

Therefore, we have;

V ∝ r³

V = k × r³

∴ 1¹/₂ pints ∝ (6 in.)³

1¹/₂ pints = 43.3125 in³

∴ 43.3125 in³ = k × 216 in.³

The constant of proportionality, k = 43.3125/216 = 0.2005208333

Therefore, we have for the second can, we have;

V₂ = k × r₂³ = 43.3125/216 × (24 in.)³ = 2772 in.³

The volume of the second can = 2772 in.³

1 in.³ = 0.004329 gallons

∴ 2772 in.³ = 2772 × 0.004329 gallons = 12 gallons

Therefore, the volume the second similar can with a 24-inch radius will hold = 12 gallons.

Simplify the expression. State any excluded values.<br><br> x^ 2 - 36/42x - 7x^ 2

REY [17]

Consider the expression $x^2-\dfrac{36}{42}x-7x^2.$

This expression contains two terms with $x^2,$ group them:

$x^2-7x^2=x^2(1-7)=-6x^2.$

Now simplify term $\dfrac{36}{42}x=\dfrac{6}{7}x.$

Now $x^2-\dfrac{36}{42}x-7x^2=-6x^2-\dfrac{6}{7}x=6\left(-x^2-\dfrac{1}{7}x\right)=-6x\left(x-\dfrac{1}{7}\right).$

This expression is defined for all x.

What is the solution?

slega [8]

If you're looking for c, then the answer is 6 in. I found this answer by using a2+b2=c2 So 4 squared + 5 squared = 41. So then i found the square root of 41 which is 6.40, which rounds to 6.

Answer:

a = 8 ÷ 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

All I really did was put another variable similar to the x in the original problem, then I changed the numbers to be a bit lower while still keep the original work-- In a short term, I lowered the 9s to 8s.
