Given: ⅓ (18x + 27) = 81 Prove: x = 12

Mathematics

sasho [114]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Firstly, rewrite the equation:

⅓ (18 + 27) = 81

Substitute x for the given number of it's supposed equivalent.

In this case x = 12.

⅓ (18(12) + 27) = 81

Solve using PEMDAS and simplify what is in the parenthesis first. Then, multiply.

(18 x 12) + 27 = 243

Now, solving using PEMDAS, multiply the total of what you got that was originally in the parenthesis by ⅓ .

⅓ (243) = 81

When you multiple these number they are equivalent to 81.

81 = 81

Since the equation given, when substituted x for 12, is equivalent to 81, this proves that substituting x for 12 makes this equation true.

Compare the decimals 16.30 and 16.3
pshichka [43]
16.30 and 16.3 equal. If you ever have a problem like that then you just add on a zero.

Example:
19.4500 = 19.45 Just add two zeros on the end
19.45 + two zeros = 1.4500

2y = 4x - 8 <br>3x + 2y = 6<br>graph​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to let a graphing calculator draw the graph (attached).

__

If you're drawing the graph by hand, there are a couple of strategies that can be useful.

The first equation is almost in slope-intercept form. Dividing it by 2 will put it in that form:

  y = 2x -4

This tells you that the y-intercept, (0, -4) is a point on the graph, as is the point that is up 2 and right 1 from there: (1, -2). A line through those points completes the graph.

__

The second equation is in standard form, so the x- and y-intercepts are easily found. One way to do that is to divide by the constant on the right to get ...

  x/2 +y/3 = 1

The denominators of the x-term and the y-term are the x-intercept and the y-intercept, respectively. If that is too mind-bending, you can simply set x=0 to find the y-intercept:

  0 +2y = 6

  y = 6/2 = 3

and set y=0 to find the x-intercept

  3x +0 = 6

  x = 6/3 = 2

Plot the intercepts and draw the line through them for the graph of this equation.

___

Here, we have suggested graphing strategies that don't involve a lot of manipulation of the equations. The idea is to get there as quickly as possible with a minimum of mistakes.

. For each of these intervals, list all its elements or explain why it is empty. a) [a, a] b) [a, a) c) (a, a] d) (a, a) e) (a,
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Elements are of the form

 (i) [a,a]=\{[x,y] : a\leq x\leq a, a\leq y\leq a; a\in \mathbb R\}

(ii) [a,b)=\{[x,y) :a\leq x

(iii)(a,a]=\{(x,y] :a

(iv)(a,a)=\{(x,y): a

(v) (a,b) where a>b=\{(x,y) : a>x>b,a>y>b;a>b,a,b \in \mathbb R\}

(vi) [a,b] where a>b=\{[x,y] : a\geq x\geq b,a\geq y\geq b;a>b,a,b \in \mathbb R\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given intervals are,

(i) [a,a] (ii) [a,a) (iii) (a,a] (iv) (a,a) (v) (a,b) where a>b (vi)  [a,b] where a>b.

To show all its elements,

(i) [a,a]

Imply the set including aa from left as well as right side.

Its elements are of the form.

\{[a,a] : a\in \mathbb R\}=\{[0,0],[1, 1],[-1,-1],[2,2],[-2,-2],[3,3],[-3,-3],........\}

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if a\in \mathbb R then the set  [a,a] represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is [a,a].

(ii) [a,a)

This means given interval containing a by left and exclude a by right.

Its elements are of the form.

[ 1, 1),[-1,-1),[2,2),[-2,-2),[3,3),[-3,-3),........

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers withis the set, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if a\in \mathbb R then the set  [a,a) represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is [a.a).

(iii) (a,a]

It means the interval not taking a by left and include a by right.

Its elements are of the form.

( 1, 1],(-1,-1],(2,2],(-2,-2],(3,3],(-3,-3],........

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if a\in \mathbb R then the set  (a,a] represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is (a,a].

(iv) (a,a)

Means given set excluding a by left as well as right.

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Its elements are of the form.

( 1, 1),(-1,-1],(2,2],(-2,-2],(3,3],(-3,-3],........

Because there is no increment so if a\in \mathbb R then the set  (a,a) represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty, so is (a,a).

(v) (a,b) where a>b.

Which indicate the interval containing a, b such that increment of x is always greater than increment of y which not take x and y by any side of the interval.

That is the graph is bounded by value of a and it contains elements like it we fixed a=5 then,

(a,b)=\{(5,0),(5,1),(5,2).....\} e.t.c

So this set is connected and we know singletons are connected in \mathbb R. Hence given set is empty.

(vi) [a,b] where a\leq b.

Which indicate the interval containing a, b such that increment of x is always greater than increment of y which include both x and y.

That is the graph is bounded by value of a and it contains elements like it we fixed a=5 then,

[a,b]=\{[5,0],[5,1],[5,2].....\} e.t.c

So this set is connected and we know singletons are connected in \mathbb R. Hence given set is empty.
