Answer:

b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

b+3(b−2)=2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

b+3(b−2)=2

b+(3)(b)+(3)(−2)=2(Distribute)

b+3b+−6=2

(b+3b)+(−6)=2(Combine Like Terms)

4b+−6=2

4b−6=2

Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.

4b−6+6=2+6

4b=8

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4b

4

=

8

4

b=2

What is the solution to the following system?
leva [86]

Answer:

(4,3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this via matrices, so the equations given can be written in matrix form as:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}3&2&1&20\\1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\end{array}\right]

Now I will shift rows to make my pivot point (top left) a 1 and so:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\\3&2&1&20\end{array}\right]

Next I will come up with algorithms that can cancel out numbers where R1 means row 1, R2 means row 2 and R3 means row three therefore,

-2R1+R2=R2 , -3R1+R3=R3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&9&4&35\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]

\frac{R_2}{9}=R_2


\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]


4R2+R1=R1 , -14R2+R3=R3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&-\frac{20}{9}&-\frac{40}{9}\end{array}\right]


-\frac{9}{20}R_3=R_3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]


-\frac{4}{9}R_3+R_2=R2 , -\frac{7}{9}R_3+R_1=R_1


\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&0&4\\0&1&0&3\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]


Therefore the solution to the system of equations are (x,y,z) = (4,3,2)

Note: If answer choices are given, plug them in and see if you get what is "equal to".  Meaning plug in 4 for x, 3 for y and 2 for z in the first equation and you should get 20, second equation -10 and third 15.

If h(x) = 6 – x, what is the value of (h circle h) (10)
Andrew [12]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 6 - x

(h o h)(x) = h(h(x)) = 6 - h(x) = 6 - (6 - x) = 6 - 6 + x = x

(h o h)(x) = x

(h o h)(10) = 10

The length of a rectangle is 5 m less than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 52 m^2. Find the dimensions of the
lys-0071 [83]

length is 8m

Width is 6.5m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let, width = b

So, length = 2b-5

area = 52m^{2}

We know,

area of rectangle = length X width

So, 52m^{2} = (2b-5) X b

On solving the above equation, we get

Width, b = 6.5m

length, l = 8m

An online furniture store sells chairs for $150 each and tables for $400 each. Every day, the store can ship no more than 30 pie
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

and a max of 20 chairs can be solved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price of chair = $150

Price of table = $400

Let the number of chairs be denoted by c and tables by t,

According to given condition:

t + c = 30 ----------- eq1

t(150) + c(400) = 6500 ------ eq2

Given that:

10 tables were sold so:

t = 10

Putting in eq1

c = 20 (max)

As the minimum target is $6500 so from eq2

10(150) + 400c = 6500

400c = 6500 - 1500

400c = 5000

c = 5000/400

c = 12.5

by rounding off

c = 13

So a minimum of 13 chairs must be sold to reach a target of $6500

i hope it will help you!
