Solve the equation: -4x - 12 = 8

Mathematics

trapecia [35]2 years ago

-4x - 12 = 8

     + 12  +12

<u>-4x </u>=<u> 20</u>

-4     -4

<em>x = -5</em>

To ensure that x equals -5, let's substitute the negative integer with x.

-4 x -5 - 12 = 8

-20 - 12 = 8

8 = 8

Therefore, the answer is x = -5 because we confirmed our answer by substituting x with -5 and solving the equation and got the both sides of the equation equal.

-4x-12=8
Add12 to both sides
-4x= 20
Divide both sides by -4
X= -5

2sin^2 2x=2<br><br> In the domain [0, 2pi)
djverab [1.8K]
Please type this as 2(sin 2x)^2=2      <span>2sin^2 2x=2 is confusing.

Reducing this expression:  (sin 2x)^2 = 1

Taking the sqrt of both sides, sin 2x = plus or minus 1

If sin 2x = 1, then 2x must be pi/2 or 3pi/2, and so x must be pi/4 or 3pi/4.

Now you do this for sin 2x = -1.</span>

Metal A has a density of 12.7 g/cm3.
stira [4]

Using the given information, the density of metal B is 8.58 g/cm³

<h3>Calculating density </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the density of metal B

From the given information,

55 g of metal A is combined with metal B to create an alloy with mass 90 g

∴ Mass of metal B in the alloy = 90 g - 55 g = 35 g

Now, we will determine the volume of metal A in the alloy

Using the formula,

Density = Mass / Volume

∴ Volume = Mass / Density

Volume of metal A in the alloy = 55/12.7

Volume of metal A in the alloy = 4.33 cm³

Then, we will determine the volume of the alloy

Volume of the alloy = 90/10.7

Volume of the alloy = 8.41 cm³

∴ Volume of metal B in the alloy = 8.41 cm³- 4.33 cm³

Volume of metal B in the alloy = 4.08 cm³

Now, for the density of metal B

Density = mass / volume

Density of metal B = 35 / 4.08

Density of metal B = 8.58 g/cm³

Hence, the density of metal B is 8.58 g/cm³.
