4(x+9)=8x-7 Solve for x

Mathematics
1 answer:
valentina_108 [34]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 10.75

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x+9)=8x-7

Step 1: Distribute the 4 to the x and 9

4 * x = 4x

4 * 9 = 36

We now have 4x + 36 = 8x - 7

Step 2: add 7 to both sides

36 + 7 = 43

-7 + 7 cancels out

We now have 4x + 43 = 8x

Step 3 subtract 4x from both sides

4x - 4x cancels out

8x - 4x = 4x

We now have 4x = 43

step 4 divide both sides by 4

4x / 4 ( the 4s cancel out and we're left with x )

43/4 = 10.75

We're left with x = 10.75

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour. She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minut
solmaris [256]

Answer:

6.11km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed that Kelli swims be represented by Y

Speed of the river = 5km/hr

Distance = Speed × Time

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour

Swimming upstream takes a negative sign, hence:

1 hour ×( Y - 5) = Distance

Distance = Y - 5

She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes

Downstream takes a positive sign

Converting 6 minutes to hour =

60 minutes = 1 hour

6 minutes =

Cross Multiply

6/60 = 1/10 hour

Hence, Distance =

1/10 × (Y + 5)

= Y/10 + 1/2

Equating both equations we have:

Y - 5 = Y/10 + 1/2

Collect like terms

Y - Y/10 = 5 + 1/2

9Y/10 = 5 1/2

9Y/ 10 = 11/2

Cross Multiply

9Y × 2 = 10 × 11

18Y = 110

Y = 110/18

Y = 6.1111111111 km/hr

Therefore, Kelli's can swim as fast as 6.11km/hr still in the water.

Can someone help with this question below?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

C = 106.76 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, we are given the diameter (d), which is 34 cm.  Using the formula you are given, we know circumference is 3.14 × d

C = 3.14 × d

C = 3.14 × (34)

C = 106.76 cm

The circumference is around 106.76 cm
