Answer: k=1
Step-by-step explanation:
4k-3=-2k+3
take -3 and 3 and add them up on one side and change the sign
4k=-2k+3
+3
4k=-2k+6
take the -2k and change the sign and add to 4k
4k=6
2k
6k=6
now divide both sides with x
6k/6= 6/6
k= 1
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
14.52 - 5.8 = 8.72 bc math
If Ian uses 1/20 of the ketchup 4 times, this is equal to 4/20, or
.
can be simplified to
, which means we need to work out
of 12.2
is equivalent to 20%, which as a decimal is 0.2
0.2 x 12.2 = 2.44 - however, this is how much he has
used, and we need to figure out how much is left.
12.2 - 2.44 = 9.76
So, Ian has 9.76 oz remaining :)
Scores are {72, 97, 82, x} where x is the unknown fourth score
They add up to 72+97+82+x = x+251
Divide this sum over four because there are four scores we want to average out. We end up with (x+251)/4 = M where M is the mean. Asa wants the mean to be 82, so make M = 82.
We can replace M with 82 and solve for x like so
(x+251)/4 = M
(x+251)/4 = 82
x+251 = 4*82
x+251 = 328
x = 328-251
x = 77
Asa needs a score of 77 on the fourth test so that the mean of the four tests is 82. If she scores higher than 77 on the fourth test, then the mean will be larger than 82.
-----------------------------------
Depending on what your teacher is looking for, the first step is to establish your variable. So you would say "let x = fourth score". However, that seems too easy. So perhaps your teacher is looking for the equation (x+251)/4 = 82 or some variant of it.
