25−3x=40 what does x equal

Mathematics
2 answers:
solong [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

=−5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rearrange terms

25−3=40

−3+25=40

2. Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation

−3+25=40

−3+25−25=40−25

3. Simplify

If you subtract the numbers

−3=15

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

−3=15

−3÷-3=15÷-3

5. Simplify

If you divide the numbers

=−5

And thats the answer

I hope this helped     :)

singh works at a restaurant where he is paid by the hour plus time and a half for his hours over 40. last week he worked four ho
padilas [110]

Answer:

$8.5 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of overtime hours = 4 hours

Since overtime starts after 40 hours, then the number of hours worked = 40 + 4 = 44 hours

Total amount earned = $391

Let Hourly pay = x

Overtime pay = 1 1/2x = 3/2x

Therefore ;

40x + (4*3/2x) = 391

40x + 6x = 391

46x = 391

x = 391 / 46

x = 8.5

Hourly pay = $8.5 per hour

Suppose that news spreads through a city of fixed size of 700000 people at a time rate proportional to the number of people who
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t))  k>0 is the constant of proportionality

y(0) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a.) Formulate a differential equation and initial condition for y(t) = the number of people who have heard the news t days after it has happened.

If we suppose that news spreads through a city of fixed size of 700,000 people at a time rate proportional to the number of people who have not heard the news that means  

<em>dy/dt = k(700,000-y(t)) </em>where k is some constant of proportionality.

Since no one has heard the news at first, we have

<em>y(0) = 0 (initial condition) </em>

We can then state the initial value problem as

y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t))

y(0) =0

How do I correctly solve this?
Gelneren [198K]
<h3>Answer: y = 14</h3>

===================================

Explanation:

The two angles involving x add up to 180 degrees. This is because they are same side interior angles (and because the horizontal lines are parallel)

So,

(angle BCF) + (angle EFC) = 180

(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180

5x - 66 + 2x + 50 = 180

7x - 16 = 180

7x - 16+16 = 180+16 ... add 16 to both sides

7x = 196

7x/7 = 196/7 .... divide both sides by 7

x = 28

This will be used to help find y

Notice how the angles BCF and ACD are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent or the same measure

angle ACD = angle BCF

9y - 52 = 5x - 66

9y - 52 = 5*28 - 66 ..... replace x with 28 (since x = 28)

9y - 52 = 140 - 66

9y - 52 = 74

9y - 52+52 = 74+52 .... add 52 to both sides

9y = 126

9y/9 = 126/9 .... divide both sides by 9

y = 14
