5x=29x what is the value of x

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=29x

Subtract 5x from each side

5x-5x=29x-5x

0 = 24x

Divide each side by 24

0/24 =24x/24

0 = x

The data show the average monthly temperatures for two cities over a 6-month period. City 1: {20, 24, 40, 63, 76, 89} City 2: {4

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The MAD of city 2 is less than the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary less than the average monthly temperatures for City 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

For comparing the mean absolute deviations of both data sets we have to calculate the mean absolute deviation for both data sets first,

So for city 1:

$Mean = x1 = \frac{20+24+40+63+76+89}{6}$

$x1 = \frac{312}{6}$

$x1 = 52$

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored as the deviation is the distance of value from the mean and it cannot be negative. For this purpose absolute is used)

$20-52 = -32=32\\24-52=-28=28\\40-52=-12=12\\63-52=11\\76-52=24\\89-52=37$

The deviations will be added then. $Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{32+28+12+11+24+37}{6} \\=\frac{144}{6}\\=24$

So the mean absolute deviation for city 1 is 24 ..

For city 2:

$Mean = x2 = \frac{41+50+58+62+72+83}{6}$

$x2 = \frac{366}{6}$

$x2 = 61$

Now to calculate the mean deviations mean will be subtracted from each data value. (Note: The minus sign is ignored)

$41-61=-20=20\\50-61=-11=11\\58-61=-3=3\\62-61=1\\72-61=11\\83-61=22$

The deviations will be added then. $Mean Absolute Deviation = \frac{20+11+3+1+11+22}{6} \\=\frac{68}{6}\\=11.33$

So the MAD for city 2 is 11.33 ..

So,

The MAD of city 2 is less than the MAD for city 1, which means the average monthly temperature of city 2 vary less than the average monthly temperatures for City 1.

A spherical balloon has a 34-in. diameter when it is fully inflated. Half of the air is let out of the balloon. Assume that the

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a. 20,579.52 cubic inches

b.10,289.76 cubic inches.

c. 13.49 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the volume of a sphere:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3 π r³

Since diameter (d) = 2 radius (r)

Replacing with the value given:

34 =2r

34/2=r

r= 17 in

Back with the volume formula:

V = 4/3 π r³

V =4/3 π (17)³

V = 20,579.52 cubic inches

The volume of the half-inflated balloon is equal to the volume of the sphere divided by 2.

20,579.52/2 = 10,289.76 cubic inches.

To find the radius of the half-inflated balloon we have to apply again the volume formula and substitute v=10,289.76

10,289.76= 4/3 π r³

Solving for r

10,289.76/ (4/3 π)= r³

2,456.5 = r³

∛2,456.5 = r

r = 13.49 inches

James is six years older than lousie. Eight years from now, James will be 4 times older than loise was 4 years ago. What is the

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: 26 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = current age of Louise (in years).

Then current age of James = x+6

Eight years from now, James's age = x+6+8= x+14

4 years ago, Louise's age = x-4

According to the question

x+14 = 4(x-4)

⇒ x+14 = 4x-16

⇒ 4x-x = 16+14

⇒ 3x = 30

⇒ x= 10 = current age of Louise (in years).

current age of James = 10+6 = 16 years

Sum of current ages = 16+10=26 years.

hence, the sum of the current ages is 26 years.

Solve for the roots in simplest form by completing the square x^2-12x+20=0

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

x = 10 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x^2 - 12 x + 20 = 0

Hint: | Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.

Subtract 20 from both sides:

x^2 - 12 x = -20

Hint: | Take one half of the coefficient of x and square it, then add it to both sides.

Add 36 to both sides:

x^2 - 12 x + 36 = 16

Hint: | Factor the left hand side.

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 6)^2 = 16

Hint: | Eliminate the exponent on the left hand side.

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 6 = 4 or x - 6 = -4

Hint: | Look at the first equation: Solve for x.

Add 6 to both sides:

x = 10 or x - 6 = -4

Hint: | Look at the second equation: Solve for x.

Add 6 to both sides:

Answer: x = 10 or x = 2
