Answer:

Her uncle's age = 47 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophia = 12 years old

Her Uncle Reynald tells her that if she adds 5 to her age,

= 12 + 5

multiplies the sum by 3

= (12 + 5) × 3

and then subtracts 4 from the product

= {(12 + 5) × 3} - 4

she will find his age

{(12 + 5) × 3} - 4

= (17 × 3) - 4

= 51 - 4

= 47

Her uncle's age = 47 years

Sophia wrote:

12 + 5 × 3 − 4

Using PEMDAS

P - product

E - exponent

M - multiplication

D - division

A - addition

S - subtraction

Sophia's expression can be written as = 12+(5*3)-4

= (12 + 15) - 4

= 27 - 4

= 23

Sophia's expression is wrong

Here, x represents the amount of time that the money is accruing interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function below represents the annual interest Alexander earns on a savings account.

f(x) = 500(1 +0.02)x

Here, x represents the amount of time that the money is accruing interest.

We know that, if R% of interest is accrued over a principal of P over time , T,

then the net interest accrued is given by,

Write the values that make the denominators zero. then solve the equation?
Olin [163]

Answer:

  denominators are zero for x=1

  there is no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We suspect your equation is supposed to be ...

  10/(5x -5) +1/5 = 2/(x -1) . . . . . parentheses are required on denominators

The denominators will be zero for x=1.

This version of the equation has no solution. It simplifies to ...

  2/(x-1) + 1/5 = 2/(x -1)

  1/5 = 0 . . . . . subtract 2/(x-1) from both sides

There is no value of x that will make this equation true.

_____

<em>Alternative interpretation</em>

The way your equation is written, it must be interpreted according to the order of operations to be ...

  (10/5)x -5 +1/5 = (2/x) -1 . . . . x=0 makes the denominator zero

  2x -3.8 = 2/x

  2x^2 -3.8x = 2 . . . . multiply by x

  2(x^2 -1.9x +.95^2) = 2 +2(0.95^2)

  (x -0.95)^2 = 1.9025

  x = 0.95 ± √1.9025 ≈ {-0.4293, 2.3293}

PLEASE HELP V IMPORTANT<br> the answers I input were just so I could see other questions.
marishachu [46]

Step-by-step explanation:

(T-S)(2000), when T(x) and S(x) are functions, is equivalent to T(2000)-S(2000), which is 17-7=10

We know that T(x) is equal to everything else, and everything else is S(x)+G(x), so T(x)-S(x) = G(x), or dollars spent on general science
