Which equation is an identity?

Mathematics

Sav [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Equation 3

Step-by-step explanation:

An identity is, simply put, an equation that is always true. 1 = 1, 2 = 2, and x = x are all examples of identities, as there's no case in which 1 ≠ 1, 2 ≠ 2, and x ≠ x. Essentially, if we can manipulate and equation so that we end up with the same value on either side, we've found an identity. Let's run through and try to solve each of these equations to see which one fulfills that condition:

8 - (6v + 7) = -6v - 1

8 - 6v - 7 = -6v - 1

1 - 6v = -6v - 1

1 = -1

This is clearly untrue. Moving on to the next equation:

5y + 5 = 5y - 6

5 = -6

Untrue again. Solving the third:

3w + 8 - w = 4w - 2(w - 4)

2w + 8 = 4w - 2w + 8

2w + 8 = 2w + 8

If we created a new variable z = 2w + 8, we could rewrite this equation as

z = z, <em>which is always true</em>. We can stop here, as we've now found that equation 3 is an identity.

Solve the Fahrenheit equation for Celsius

The first step you should do is subtract 32 from both sides so your answer will turn out like this -

F = (9/5) C + 32
- 
F - 32 = (9/5)

Then we will multiply both sides by 5. 

5 ( F - 32 ) = 9 C

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate C.

(5/9)  ( F - 32 ) = C

So the answer is :

C = (5/9) ( F - 32 )

Hope this helps :)

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

17%

Step-by-step explanation:

First: work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

First:

1,200,000 - 995,000 = 205,000

Then:

205,000 / 1,200,000 = 0.17

0.17 × 100% = 17%

There are two cones, the area of a cone is base x height divided by 3. in order to find the base, you would need the area of the circle which is π r^2. once you have that, multiple it by the height and divide by three. you will need to find both of the cone’s volumes so you would need to add the two volumes together to find the volume of the entire shape
