1/3 (x + 4 ) = 20 wt the answer

Mathematics
1 answer:
sashaice [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, distribute the 1/3 onto the x and the 4 in the parenthesis. That leaves you with

1/3x + 4/3 = 20

We want the x value by itself so we're going to subtract the 4/3 from the left and the right side, leaving us with

1/3x + 4/3 = 20 - 4/3

1/3x = 18 & 2/3 (since we're dealing with fractions, I'm going to change the 18 & 2/3 into an improper fraction just to make the next step easier.)

1/3x = 56/3

The last step is to divide the 1/3 off of the x, so x is by itself. To divide a fraction by a fraction, just flip the fraction you're dividing with and multiply.

56/3 x 3/1 = 56 (56 x 3 is 168, and 3 x 1 is 3, so when you reduce 168/3, you get 56)

So, 56 is our answer, because after dividing off the 1/3, we're left with x = 56

Your co-worker, Amanda, and you are reliving your high school athletic "glory days" during a coffee break. She played basketball
topjm [15]

Answer:

Our score = 0.60, Amanda's score = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For Amanda

μ = 15 , σ = 4

z- score for X = 16 is (From z table)

z = (X - μ)/σ = (16 - 15)/4 = 0.25

For us

μ = 310 , σ = 25

z score for X = 325 (From z table)

z = (325-310)/25 = 0.60

Since our z score is better than Amanda's z score, we can say we did better

A complex number is a number that can be written in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers. In the complex number 4 + 2
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

In the complex number 4 + 2i, 4 is the <em>real </em>part. In the complex number 4 + 2i, 2 is the <em>imaginary </em>part.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parts of the complex number are called the <em>real</em> part and the <em>imaginary</em> part. The imaginary part is identified by its multiplier of <em>i</em>.

In the given number, the 2 is multiplied by i, so 2 is the imaginary part. The other part, 4, is the real part.

A large container holds 8 gallons of water. After 56 minutes the container only has 1 gallon of water left. At what rate is the
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The rate at which water leaking is \frac{1}{8} gal/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A large container holds 8 gallons of water.

After 56 minutes the container only has 1 gallon of water left.

Now, to find at what rate is the water leaking.

So, water leaked from the container = 8 gallons - 1 gallon = 7 gallons.

Time taken for leakage = 56 minutes.

<em>Now, to get the rate:</em>

\frac{Gallons\ of\ water\ leaked}{Time\ taken\ for\ leakage}

=\frac{7 gallons}{56 minutes}

=\frac{1 gallon}{8 minutes}

The rate = \frac{1}{8} gal/min.

Therefore, the rate at which water is leaking is \frac{1}{8} gal/min.
