Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

First Expand the equation

3x+3 = 2x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

x+3=-2

subtract 3 from both sides

x = -5

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 5n - 10 > 20$

add 10 to both side

so...

$- 5n > 30$

divide by -5 so, the sign flips because multiplying or dividing with a negative number changes the sign.

Point x is located at (-2,-6) and point z is located at (0,5). Find the y value for the point y that is located 1/5 the disteanc

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

-3 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the distance between x and z along the y-axis.

This will be: 5 - -6 = 11 units

1/5 of 11 = 1/5 × 11

= 11/5

= 2 1/5

Now add 2.5 to -6

2 1/2 + -6 = -3 1/2

The value of y = -3 1/2

A drop of oil makes a circular ring in a water puddle. The radius of the oil ring expands at 1.5 cm per second. If r(t)=1.5t and

Answer:

$a(t) =n(0.25t^2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$r(t) = 0.5t$

$a(r) = nr^2$

Required

Determine the area in terms of time

From the question, we have:

$r(t) = 0.5t$ -> radius per time

and

$a(r) = nr^2$ --> area from radius

The interpretation of the question is to find the composite function: a(t)

If $a(r) = nr^2$ , and $r(t) = 0.5t$ , the

Substitute 0.5t for r

$a(t) =n(0.5t)^2$

$a(t) =n*0.25t^2$

$a(t) =n(0.25t^2)$
