1 answer:
inysia [295]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3 = 2x+15

<h3>i) move 2x to the left-hand side and change its sign</h3>

5x-2x-3 = 15

<h3>ii) move -3 to the right-hand side and change its sign</h3>

5x-2x = 15+3

<h3>iii) collect like terms</h3>

3x = 15+3

<h3>iv) add the numbers</h3>

3x = 18

<h3>v) divide both sides of the equation by 3</h3>

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{18}{ 3}

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

let's first convert feet to inches

4 ft = 48 inches ( width )

6.5 ft = 78 inches ( length )

12.5 ft = 150 inches ( height )

each cube is 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4

x-axis ( length )

78 ÷ 1/4 = 78 x 4 = 312 cubes

y-axis ( width )

48 x 4 = 192 cubes

z-axis ( height )

150 x 4 = 600 cubes

the total number of cubes fit in the closet is :

312 x 192 x 600 = 35,942,400 cubes

Joel needs to buy some blank DVDS and zip disks to back up a large amount of data that has been generated by an accounting firm.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

D = 4, Z = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

6D+3Z = 96

5D+4Z = 116

multiply top by 5 and bottom by -6

top equation = 30D+15Z = 480

bottom equation = -30D-24Z = -696

Cancel 30D and -30 D

top equation  = 15Z = 480

Bottom equation = -24Z = -696

15Z - 24 Z = 480 - 696

-9Z = 216

Z = 216/9

Z = 24

Now that we have the value of Z, we can substitute it in any equation to find D

6D + 3(24) = 96

6D + 72 = 96

6D = 96 - 72

6D = 24

D = 24/6

D = 4

u = (-16/3)/-8

If you don't have a calc, use KCF:

u = (-16/3)(-1/8)

u = 16/24

u = 2/3
