−3(4 – 3x) = 5x + 16 what is x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 7 (i think..)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 (4 - 3x) = 5x + 16

* multiple -3 to each number in the parenthesis

-12 + 9x = 5x + 16

* add 12 to both sides to cancel it and combine like terms on the other side

9x = 5x + 28

* subtract 5x from both sides to cancel it out and combine like terms

4x = 28

* divide 4 from both sides to get x alone

x = 7

To pass an Examination consisting of four papers, candidates MUST score a mean mark of 40% or above and NOT less than 33% in eac
valina [46]

Answer:

Josephine

Step-by-step explanation:

2 criteria was given to pass an exam:

1. At least, a mean mark of 40% must be achieved in the exam consisting of 4 papers

2. Score at least, 33% in each paper.

From the table given, and considering these two criteria, James definitely didn't pass the examination. He scored below 33% in one of the 4 papers. James scored 30% in Maths

Calculated the mean score for John and Josephine to determine if they meet the first criteria of having at least a mean score of 40%.

Mean score of John = (35 + 36 + 42 + 44) ÷ 4 = 39.25%

Mean score for Josephine = (60 + 55 + 38 + 75) ÷ 4 = 57%

Josephine passed the examination because she had a mean score of 57%, and also scored 33% and above in each test.

A box has a volume of 192 cubic inches, a length that is twice as long as its width, and a height that is 2 inches greater than
Volgvan

Answer:

Length = 8 inches

Width = 4 inches

Height = 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box = 192 cubic inches

Volume of a box = length × width × height

Let

Width = x

Length = 2x

Height = x + 2

Volume of a box = length × width × height

192 = 2x * x * (x + 2)

192 = 2x^2 (x + 2)

192 = 2x^3 + 4x^2

Divide through by 2

96 = x^3 + 2x^2

Subtract 96 from both sides

x ^3 + 2x^2 - 96 = 0

Factorise

(x - 4) (x^2 + 6x + 24) = 0

x^2 + 6x + 24 has no real x-value

So,

Divide both sides by (x^2 + 6x + 24).

0 ÷ (x^2 + 6x + 24) = 0

So,

(x - 4) = 0

x = 4

Width = x = 4 inches

Length = 2x

= 2(4)

= 8 inches

Height = x + 2

= 4 + 2

= 6 inches

Check:

Volume of a box = length × width × height

= (8 * 4 * 6) inches

= 192 inches
