What is the answer of this problem -7/3(3x-2)=-21 ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

= 11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. COMBINE MULTIPLIED TERMS INTO A SINGLE FRACTION

- 7/3 (3x-2)= -21

-7 (3x-2) = -21

-----------------------

3

2. DISTRIBUTE

-7( 3x- 2) ➗ 3 =-21

3. MULTIPLY ALL TERMS BY THE SAME VALUE TO ELIMINATE FRACTION DENOMINATORS

-21x + 14 ➗ 3 = 3 (-21)

4. CANCEL MULTIPLIED TERMS THAT ARE IN THE DENOMINATOR

3 ( -21x + 14) ➗ 3 (-21)

5. MULIPLY THE NUMBERS

-21x + 14 = 3(-21)

6. SUBTRACT 14 FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION

-21x + 14 = -63

7. SIMPLIFY

-21x = - 77

8. DIVIDE BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION BY THE SAME TERM

-21x/-21 = -77/-21

9. SIMPLIFY

x = 11/3

Choose the correct simplification of x to the 12th power times z to the 11th power all over x to the 2nd power times z to the 4t
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

<h3>The option A) x^{10}z^7 is correct answer.</h3><h3>The correct simplification for the given expression \frac{x^{12}\times z^{11}}{x^2\times z^4} is x^{10}z^7</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is x to the 12th power times z to the 11th power all over x to the 2nd power times z to the 4th power.

The given expression can be written as \frac{x^{12}\times z^{11}}{x^2\times z^4}

<h3>To choose the correct simplification of the given expression :</h3>

Now we have to simplify the given expression as below

\frac{x^{12}\times z^{11}}{x^2\times z^4}

=x^{12}\times z^{11}(x^{-2}\times z^{-4})   ( by using the identity \frac{1}{a^m}=a^{-m} )

=(x^{12}.x^{-2})\times (z^{11}.z^{-4})

=x^{12-2}\times z^{11-4} ( by using the identity a^m.a^n=a^{m+n} )

=x^{10}\times z^7

=x^{10}z^7

∴ \frac{x^{12}\times z^{11}}{x^2\times z^4}=x^{10}z^7

<h3>The correct simplification for the given expression \frac{x^{12}\times z^{11}}{x^2\times z^4} is x^{10}z^7</h3><h3>Hence option A) x^{10}z^7 is correct answer.</h3>

For positive acute angles A and B, it is known that tan A = 35/12 and sin B = 20/29. Find the value of sin(A - B ) in the simple
almond37 [142]

Answer:

\displaystyle \sin(A-B)=\frac{495}{1073}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

\displaystyle \tan(A)=\frac{35}{12}\text{ and } \sin(B)=\frac{20}{29}

Where both A and B are positive acute angles.

And we want to find he value of sin(A-B).

Using the first ratio, we can conclude that the opposite side is 35 and the adjacent side is 12.

Then by the Pythagorean Theorem, the hypotenuse is:

h = \sqrt{35^2 + 12^2} =37

Using the second ratio, we can likewise conclude that the opposite side is 20 and the hypotenuse is 29.

Then by the Pythagorean Theorem, the adjacent is:

a=\sqrt{29^2-20^2}=21

Therefore, we can conclude that:

So, for A, the adjacent is 12, opposite is 35, and the hypotenuse is 37.

For B, the adjacent is 21, opposite is 20, and the hypotenuse is 29.

We can rewrite sin(A-B) as:

\sin(A-B)=\sin(A)\cos(B)-\cos(A)\sin(B)

Using the above conclusions, this yields: (Note that since A and B are positive acute angles, all resulting ratios will be positive.)

\displaystyle \sin(A-B)=\Big(\frac{35}{37}\Big)\Big(\frac{21}{29}\Big)-\Big(\frac{12}{37}\Big)\Big(\frac{20}{29}\Big)

Evaluate:

\displaystyle \sin(A-B)=\frac{735-240}{1073}=\frac{495}{1073}

A fruit-drinking company tester a new flavor. In a taste test, 34% of the people taking part liked the new flavor. If 51 people
almond37 [142]

Answer:

C. 150

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people who took the test is unknown, so call it x.

34% of x liked the flavor.

51 people liked the flavor.

That means that 34% of x is equal to 51.

34% of x = 51

0.34x = 51

x = 51/0.34

x = 150

Answer: C. 150
