Answer:

Explanation:

<em>Write your equation</em>

(3x + 14) = (9x - 4)

<em>Subtract 9x from both sides</em>

3x + 14 − 9x = 9x − 4 − 9x

−6x + 14 = −4

<em>Subtract 14 from both sides</em>

−6x + 14 − 14 = −4 − 14

−6x = −18

<em>Divide both sides by -6</em>

−6x / -6 = −18 / -6

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9x + -4 = 3x + 14

Reorder the terms:

-4 + 9x = 3x + 14

Reorder the terms:

-4 + 9x = 14 + 3x

Solving

-4 + 9x = 14 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 9x + -3x = 14 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x

-4 + 6x = 14 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-4 + 6x = 14 + 0

-4 + 6x = 14

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + 6x = 14 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + 6x = 14 + 4

6x = 14 + 4

Combine like terms: 14 + 4 = 18

6x = 18

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 3

Simplifying

x = 3

<span>Taking this to a Physics formula of Time equals energy times efficiency over power equals (5670kJ)(0.25) over 800J/s equals 1770 s which gives the solution 30 minutes. Therefore, it will take 30 minutes for a 68kg person to swim at a fast crawl in order to use all the energy available in a typical fast food meal of a burger, fries, and a drink. I estimated with a 25% efficiency for work capacity at swimming at a fast crawl in this equation.</span>

Answer:

Mean = £1.8 million

Step-by-step explanation:

The MEAN is the sum of all the numbers divided by the number of numbers.

<u>There are 5 numbers in total</u>
<u>The sum is $1.4+1.6+1.8+2.5+1.7=9$ million</u>

Hence the mean is $\frac{9}{5}=1.8$ million

Mr. Itol's assistant takes twice as long to complete a computer task as Mr. Itol. If it takes both experts 6 hours to complete t

Lesechka [4]

So, in order to solve this problem, I will set up an equation. First, let's make x= the # of hours it takes Mr. Itol to complete a computer task, and since his assistant takes twice as long, lets make 2x=the # of hours it takes the assistant to complete the task. We also know that it takes the two of them 6 hours to complete the task together. We can now set up the following equation:

$\frac{1}{2x} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{6}$

Now, in order to be able to solve this, we have to find the least common denominator, and then we can cancel out the denominators to solve for the top part. The LCD=6x and the new equation becomes:

$\frac{3}{6x} + \frac{6}{6x} = \frac{x}{6x}$

Now, we can get rid of the denominators, and we get:

$3+6=x$

So, x= 9

Now we know that Mr. Itol would take 9 hours to complete the task if he were to do it himself. To find how long it would take his assistant to complete the same task by himself, we just need to plug in the x-value into 2x:

$2(9)=18$

Therefore, your answer is that Mr. Itol would take 9 hours to do the job alone, while his assistant will take 18 hours (double the time) to do the job alone.

Hope this helps :)
