-8= 3-5(x+6) solving algebraicaily

SOVA2 [1]

Let's solve your equation step by step

-8=3-5(x+6)

Step 1: simplify both sides of the equation

-8=3-5(x+6)

-8=3+(-5)(x)+(-5(6) (distribute)

-8=3+-5x+-30

-8=(-5x)+(3+-30) (combine like terms)

-8=-5x+-27

-8=-5x-27

Step 2: flip the equation

-5x-27=-8

Step 3: add 27 to both sides

-5x-27+27=-8+27

-5x=19

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = 19/-5

Answer : x= -19/5

An ice cream store has the pricing shown below. You want to determine the best value. The height of the cone is 4.5 in and the d

nignag [31]

Solution:

Step 1:

We will calculate the volume of ice cream in the single scoop

The volume of the ice cream will be

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 \\ r=\frac{2in}{2}=1in(cone) \\ h=4.5in \\ r=\frac{3in}{2}=1.5in(radius\text{ of the hemisphere\rparen} \end{gathered}$

By substituting the values, we will have

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h+\frac{2}{3}\pi r^{3} \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5+\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{99}{14} \\ V=\frac{165}{14} \\ V=11.79in^3 \end{gathered}$

Step 2:

We will use the formula below to calculate the volume of the two scoops of ic cream

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5in+\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{99}{7} \\ V=\frac{132}{7} \\ V=18.86in^3 \end{gathered}$

Step 3:

We will use the formula below to calculate the volume of the three scoops of ic cream

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h+\frac{6}{3}\pi r^3 \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times1^2\times4.5+2\times\frac{22}{7}\times1.5^3 \\ V=\frac{33}{7}+\frac{297}{14} \\ V=\frac{363}{14} \\ V=25.93in^3 \end{gathered}$

For the first ice cream with one scoop

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{3.50}{11.79} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.30 \end{gathered}$

For the second ice cream with two scoops

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{4.50}{18.86} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.24 \end{gathered}$

For the third ice cream with three scoops

$\begin{gathered} 1in^3=\frac{5.50}{25.93} \\ 1in^3=\text{ \$}0.21 \end{gathered}$

Hence,

The final answer is

The triple sold at $5.50 has the best value because it has the lowest price of $0.21 per cubic inch of the ice cream

the diameter of one species of bacteria is shown. bonnie approximates this measure as 3 x 10^-11 meter. is she correct? explain.

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No picture of the bacteria provided, but according to some text books its arround 0.2 - 2m in micrometer measurement, so 3 x 10^-11 is far more smaller than the range.
