Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4(-3x + 8) = -16

Divide both sides by 4

-3x + 8 = -4

Subtract 8 from both sides

-3x = -12

Divide both sides by -3

x = 4

Answer: X=4
. 4(-3x+8)=-16
-12x+32= -16
-12x=—48
X=4

CHECK:
4(-3(4)+8)=-16
4(-4)=-16
-16=-16

Unit rate for typing 34 words in a minute in a half

katrin [286]

Answer:

Rate is 1.1333 words per second 

Step-by-step explanation:

We understand rating as frequency or speed of doing something per time (seconds mainly)

${ \green{ \tt{rate = \frac{item \: quantity}{time} }}} \\$

Let's find rate in terms of seconds (words per second)

${ \rm{rate = \frac{34 \: words}{ (\frac{1}{2} \times 60) \: seconds} }} \\ \\ { \rm{rate = \frac{34}{30} }} \\ \\ { \rm{rate = 1.133 \: \: words \: per \: second}}$

A pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m lo

Roman55 [17]

The tower is 61.65 meters tall.

SOLUTION:

Given that, a pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long.

At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m long.

We have to find height of the tower.

Now, we know that,

$2.5 \mathrm{m} \text { tall } \rightarrow 1.47 \text { long shadow }$

Then, (let it be) n meter tall $\rightarrow$ 36.25 long shadow

So, by cross multiplication method,

$\Rightarrow \frac{2.5}{1.47}=\frac{n}{36.25}$

This can be written as,

$\Rightarrow 36.25 \times 2.5=1.47 \times n \rightarrow 1.47 n=90.625 \rightarrow n=61.649 \rightarrow n=61.65 \text{ m}$

Cross multiplications steps: (To find Single Variable)

Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction.
Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
Set the two products equal to each other.
Solve for the variable.

Help quickly! A student wants to report on the number of movies her friends watch each week. The collected data are below:

max2010maxim [7]

1.The measure of center that is most appropriate for this situation is the MEDIAN. This is because, one of the number given is an outlier, that is, it is much greater than the rest of the given numbers. If the mean of the number given is calculated, it will be discovered that the mean value obtained is higher than most of the scores in the data set, thus,the mean is not a suitable measure of central tendency in this case.
2. To find the median of the given numbers, arrange them in a descending order and add the two numbers in the middle then divide the value by 2.
That is, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 14.
The two numbers in the middle is 1 and 2.
Median = [1 + 2] / 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
Therefore, the median is 1.5
