Answer:
0 People initially had the cold.
6 People will have it after 2 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many people had it initially, plug 0 in for x (implying 0 days later.)
C= 1*3(0)
C= 1*0
C=0
Nobody had the cold initially.
To find out how many people had it after 2 days, plug 2 in for x. (implying 2 days later.)
C= 1*3(2)
C= 1*6
C=6
Therefore 6 people had the cold after 2 days.
I hope this helps!
Answer: First half was 24 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time taken to finish the second half be y.
Since the student used 2/3 of the second half time to finish the first half, first half = 2/3 × y = 2y/3
The entire exam is an hour which equals 60 minutes
First half + Second half = 60minutes
Note that first half is denoted as 2y/3 and second half is denoted by y.
2y/3 + y = 60
5y/3 = 60
Cross multiply
5y = 60 × 3
5y = 180
y = 180/5
y = 36
Second half took 36 minutes
Since first half is 2y/3, it will be:
(2×36) / 3
= 72/3
= 24minutes
First half took 24 minutes.
I’ll help you out, but what are the numbers in between? Like does it go boy 0, .3, .6, .9, to 1? Or is there a different pattern
And? It’s there a full question?
Answer:
x = -1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Th given equation is :
34(x + 4) = 14(x + 8)
Step (A) Distribute 34 on the left side of the equation such as :
34x + 34(4) = 14(x + 8)
34x + 136 = 14(x + 8)
Step (B) Distribute 14 on the right side of the equation such as :
34x + 136 = 14x + 14(8)
34x + 136 = 14x + 112
Step (C) Subtract 14x from each side of the equation.
34x + 136 - 14x = 14x + 112 -14x
20x + 136 = 112
Step (D) Subtract 136 from each side of the equation.
20x + 136 -136 = 112 -136
20x = -24
Step (E) Divide both side by 20

So, the value of x is (-1.2). Hence, steps (D) and (E) are incorrect.
