Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Set up the direct proportion equation
z = kx
→ Substitute in the values
12 = 3k
→ Divide both sides by 3 to isolate k
4 = k
→ Substitute the value of k back into the original direct proportion equation
z = 4x
→ Substitute the value of z in
18 = 4x
→ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x
4.5 = x
Answer:
x<-3 or x>-1
Step by step explanation:
Start with -5x>15. To get x by itself, we have to divide each side by -5. When we do that we get x<-3. (Don't forget to flip the sign when dealing with negative · and ÷.) Now answer the second equation. x-5>-6 To get x by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x>-1. Now we have x<3 or x>-1.
Answer:
a) 12cm
b) 360cm²
c) 2160cm cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
you would use Pythagoras theorem for A
so half of 18 is 9
15² - 9² = 144
the square root of 144 is 12
the height is 12cm
b)
18 x 20 = 360cm²
c)
csa x L
csa = b x h divide by 2
18 x 12 = 216cm²/2 = 108cm²
108xm² x 20cm = 2160cm cubed
The real way is to subtract the term with the variable on the right first, but both Spencer and Jeremiah are correct. When you do them both, they arrive at the same answer, only that Spencer's would be 2/5, and Jeremiah's would be -2/-5, which is 2/5, because you divide negative by a negative. It doesn't matter which term with the variable you would cancel out first. Either way, you still arrive at the correct answer.
