Answer:

x = 6

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  • Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

3 - 2x = -1.5x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Add 2x on both sides:                    3 = 0.5x
  2. Divide 0.5 on both sides:               6 = x
  3. Rewrite:                                           x = 6

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in<em> x</em>:                    3 - 2(6) = -1.5(6)
  2. Multiply:                               3 - 12 = -9
  3. Subtract:                              -9 = -9

Here we see that -9 does indeed equal -9.

∴ x = 6 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3-2x= -1.5x

-3       -3

-2x= -1.5x - 3

+1.5x   +1.5x

-.5x= -3

divide both sides by -.5

<u>x = 6</u>

Answer:

x=4 y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

given equation

x+y=5

so x= 5-y.......(i)

and

x-2y=2

so x= 2+2y........(ii)

then

5-y=2+2y

therefore y=1

and x=4

PtichkaEL [24]
This question was once asked before so I will put it here.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "x = 2; a = 5; b = 3" A 5 inch tall bamboo shoot doubles in height every 3 days. If the equation y=ab^x, where x is the number of doubling periods, represents the height of the bamboo shoot.

What is the minimum force required to prevent a ball weighing 22.6 lb from rolling down a ramp which is inclined at 39.0 degrees
Alona [7]
The correct answer is 14.2 lb which is choice D.

Let:

F = minimum force required to prevent ball from rolling down the ramp

The formula will be:

F = w * sin theta

F = w * sin (39 degrees)

F = 22.6 * sin (39) 
= 14.2 lb (this is rounded to the nearest tenth)
