First put the words in an algebraic format or a model. D = 3.5(√H). Now determine what the question is asking. It's height. Plug in the value of D. Distance is 35 km.
35 = 3.5(√H) We want to get H by itself. First thing to get away from it is 3.5. So divide 35 by 3.5 And 3.5(√h) by 3.5.
10 = √H To get rid of √ do the opposite raise to the power of 2
10² = (√H)²
100 = H
You must be 100 kilometers above ground to see 35 kilometers
Answer:
-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be A
Given if you divide the sum of six and the number A by 3 , the result is 4 more than 1/4 of A
That’s
6+A/3 = 4+1/4 of A
6+A/3 = 4+1/4 x A
6+A/3 = 4+A/4
Cross multiply
4(6 + A) = 3(4 + A)
Distribute
4 x 6 + 4 x A = 3 x 4 + 3 x A
24 + 4A = 12 + 3A
Subtract 24 from both sides to eliminate 24 on the left side
24 - 24 + 4A = 12 - 24 + 3A
4A = -12 + 3A
Subtract 3A from both sides so the unknown can be on one side
4A - 3A = -12 + 3A - 3A
A = -12
Check
6+(-12)/3 = 4 +(-12)/4
6 -12/3 = 4 -12/4
-6/3 = -8/4
-2 = -2
He saves $124.90 because $389.90 - $265.00 = 124.90 and so that is the difference in the prices which is the answer.
