Value of x for 12(x-2)+3x=1/2(x+6)+2​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Damm [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The value of x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

12\left(x-2\right)+3x=\frac{1}{2}\left(x+6\right)+2

  • Expand 12(x-2) = 12x - 24
  • Expand 1/2(x+6) = 1/2x + 3

so the equation becomes

12x-24+3x=\frac{1}{2}x+3+2

simplifying

15x-24=\frac{1}{2}x+5

15x=\frac{1}{2}x+29

multiplying both sides by 2

30x = x + 58

subtracting x from both sides

30x - x = 58 - x

29x = 58

divide both sides by 29

\frac{29x}{29}=\frac{58}{29}

simplifying

x = 2

Therefore, the value of x = 2

Write a ratio, in the simplest form and a percent for the shaded area (there's a 5x4 box and 6 cubes are shaded)
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

\%Percent = 30 \%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shaded = 6\ cubes

Box = 5\ x\ 4

Required

Determine the percentage of the shaded cubes

First, we calculate the number of boxes:

Box = 5\ x\ 4

Express as multiplication

Box = 5\ *\ 4

Box = 20

This implies that there are 20 cubes in the box.

The percentage of the shaded cubes is:

\%Percent = \frac{Shaded}{Box} * 100\%

\%Percent = \frac{6}{20} * 100\%

\%Percent = \frac{6* 100}{20} \%

\%Percent = \frac{600}{20} \%

\%Percent = 30 \%

<em>30% were shaded</em>

Systems of the Body Constructed Response
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

note: there may be other possible explanations and more body systems can be involved and I can go into much greater detail

1: Nervous system signals your muscles in mouth to abduct and adduct as well as your salivary glands to produce saliva to break down the food, as well as prepare the stomach to digest the food

2: Muscular system moves muscles in mouth to break food down into smaller pieces so there is greater surface area for digestive enzymes to work on the food, then muscles in oesophagus move food to stomach, where stomach muscles churn the broken down food around to speed up digestion

3: Digestive system releases numerous digestive enzymes into the food to break down lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. Small intestines absorb nutrients into bloodstream, and large intestine absorbs water.

4: Excretory system removes excess mostly dry waste through the anus as well as urine from ureter.

A toy company is making a miniature model of a dump truck. The steering wheel on the toy car that is 0.6 cm corresponds to the s
pentagon [3]
I used the 55.2 and the 0.6 to find a ratio of 92:1, so for every cm of toy car steering wheel there are 92 cm of real truck steering wheel. so using this ratio i times the 3.5cm of the toy car windshield by the 92, this gave me the answer of 322cm, which theoretically is the answer of this equation. 322cm.
