How to solve this problem 15 = 5x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 3 (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, you need to isolate the variable to one side of the equation. To do that, you need to use reverse operations. For example, the reverse operation of subtraction is addition.

In this case, we have:

15 = 5x

5x is the same thing as 5 (x) or 5 times x. This means the reverse operation is division. So, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 5:

15 = 5x

-----   ----

5       5

--------------

3 = x

x = 3

Therefore the biggest loser lost 10.0 lb per week.

Find the central angle θ which subtends an arc of length 50 miles of a circle of radius 36 miles
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
(πrθ)/180 = arc length       [r=radius, θ=central angle, π≈3.14]  ⇒
πrθ =  180*arc length
θ = (180*arc length)/πr

θ = (180 * 50)/(3.14 * 36) ≈ 79.6°
