Five less than twice the value of a number is equal to three times the quantity of

Answer:

These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at  "Five less than twice the value of a number."

"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.

"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)

Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."

Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".

"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.

So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).

Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.

2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x

2x-(3/2)x = 17

x/2 = 17

x=34

Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.

Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.

1. a motor car race is 500 miles long and consists of completing laps of a circular speedway
Zarrin [17]

The function y = 2.5x + 500 represents the total number of miles if the motor car race is 500 miles long, option (d) is correct.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

We have:

y represents the number of miles a motor car has left to go in the race

x represents the number of laps completed by the motor car

The total number of miles if we consider only circular speedways = 2.5x

The total number of miles:

y = 2.5x + 500  (because 500 is the constant)

Thus, the function y = 2.5x + 500 represents the total number of miles if the motor car race is 500 miles long option (d) is correct.

Answer:

3rd option.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2|k|}{5} = 4

move 5 to the other side of the equation.

2|k| = 5(4)

2|k| = 20

move 2 to the other side of the equation.

|k| = \frac{20}{2}

k = 10
