Answer:

x = 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

| 3x - 11 | = x + 3

The absolute value always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside the bars can be positive or negative, thus

3x - 11 = x + 3 or - (3x - 11) = x + 3

Solving both equations

3x - 11 = x + 3 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x - 11 = 3 ( add 11 to both sides )

2x = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 7

or

- (3x - 11) = x + 3

- 3x + 11 = x + 3 ( subtract x from both sides )

- 4x + 11 = 3 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

- 4x = - 8 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = 2

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions

x = 7

| 3(7) - 11 | = | 21 - 11 | = | 10 | = 10

right side = 7 + 3 = 10 → both sides are equal thus x = 7 is a solution

x = 2

| 3(2) - 11 | = | 6 - 11 | = | - 5 | = 5

right side = 2 + 3 = 5 → both sides are equal thus x = 2 is a solution

The solutions are x = 2, x = 7

What is 38% of 2,000,000?
lutik1710 [3]
Percent is parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
38%=38/100=0.38
'of' means multiply 2,000,000 times 0.38=760000

Determine the graph of the polar equation r =6/2-2cos theta<br> (picture provided)
vredina [299]

Answer:

Choice D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to write the polar equation of the conic section in standard form by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2;

r=\frac{3}{1-cos(theta)}

The eccentricity of this conic section is thus 1, the coefficient of cos θ. Thus, this conic section is a parabola since its eccentricity is 1.

The value of the directrix is determined as;

d = k/e = 3/1 = 3

The denominator of the polar equation of this conic section contains (-cos θ) which implies that this parabola opens towards the right and thus the equation of its directrix is;

x = -3

Thus, the polar equation represents a parabola that opens towards the right with a directrix located at  x = -3. Choice D fits this criteria

If angle 1= 105°, angle 12= (3x + 15)°, and angle 7 = (8y-5)°, determine the values<br> of x and y.
Darina [25.2K]

The value of the variable x is 30° and the value of the variable y is 10°.

The missing diagram is attached below.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>

The angle is the distance between the intersecting lines or surfaces.

Corresponding angle – If two lines are parallel, then the third line. The corresponding angles are equal angles.

Vertically opposite angle – When two lines intersect, then their opposite angles are equal.

Linear angle – If the total of two angles is 180 degrees, they are said to be linear angles.

∠1 = ∠5 = ∠9 = 105° (corresponding angles)

∠1 = ∠4 = 105° (Vertical opposite angles)

∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (linear angle)

       ∠2 = 75°

∠2 = ∠3 = 75° (Vertical opposite angles)

∠3 = ∠8 = ∠12 = 75° (corresponding angles)

If angle ∠1 = 105°, angle ∠12 = (3x + 15)°, and angle ∠7 = (8y-5)°.

Then the value of x and y will be

   ∠9 = ∠12

   ∠1 = ∠12

105° = (3x + 15)°

  3x = 90°

    x = 30°

∠6 = ∠7

75° = (8y – 5)°

8y = 80°

  y = 10°

I thought of a number, added 3 2/7 to it, then I multiplied the result by 1 1/2 , and got
horsena [70]

Answer:

\frac{25}{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

3\frac{2}{7}=\frac{23}{7}

1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}

6\frac{5}{7}=\frac{47}{7}

Let the number be n, so we can write an equation from the word problem as:

(n+\frac{23}{7})*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{47}{7}

Now, we do algebra and solve for n:

(n+\frac{23}{7})*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{47}{7}\\\frac{3}{2}n+\frac{69}{14}=\frac{47}{7}\\\frac{3}{2}n=\frac{47}{7}-\frac{69}{14}\\\frac{3}{2}n=\frac{25}{14}\\n=\frac{\frac{25}{14}}{\frac{3}{2}}\\n=\frac{25}{14}*\frac{2}{3}\\n=\frac{50}{42}\\n=\frac{25}{21}

hence the number is 25/21
