Mathematics
1 answer:
ANTONII [103]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = \frac{y}{3} - \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 5 + 3x

Required

Solve for x

Subtract 5 from both sides

y-5 = 5 -5+ 3x

y-5 = 3x

Divide through by 3

\frac{y}{3} - \frac{5}{3} = x

x = \frac{y}{3} - \frac{5}{3}

2x+y=21;y=-2x+21<br>please hurry I need this straight away​
Nastasia [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 21

Solving

2x + y = 21

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1y' to each side of the equation.

2x + y + -1y = 21 + -1y

Combine like terms: y + -1y = 0

2x + 0 = 21 + -1y

2x = 21 + -1y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 10.5 + -0.5y

Simplifying

x = 10.5 + -0.5y

A movie rental website charges $5.00 per month for membership and $1.25 per movie.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

18 movies

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Subtract the monthly charge from Marissa's total allowance

28.50 - 5.00 = 23.5

2) Divide 23.5 by the charge per movie.

23.5/1.25 = 18.8

3) Since there cannot be 4/5 of a movie, Marissa can spend enough to watch 18 movies.

The ramp shown in the diagram has a rise of 225 cm and it makes an angle 40° with the floor.
Kazeer [188]

The length of the ramp calculated using Pythagoras is approximately 350 cm

From the diagram attached :

  • Height of ramp = opposite = 225 cm

  • Angle of inclination, θ = 40°

Using Pythagoras ; the length of the ramp can calculated as follows :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Sin 40° = 225 / hypotenus

Cross multiply

Hypotenus × 0.6427876 = 225

Divide both sides by 0.6427876 to isolate the hypotenus

Hypotenus = 225 / 0.6427876

Hypotenus = 350.03786 cm

Therefore, the length of the ramp which is the hypotenus is approximately 350 cm

Heather works in a circular showroom for wallpaper and tiles. Aisles divide the showroom like the spikes of a wheel. Each spoke
harina [27]

Answer:

2820.36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the length of the outer corridor, and we do that by finding the length of the circunference with a radius of 25 feet:

C = 2 * pi * r = 2 * pi * 25 = 157.08 feet

Now, as Heather walks the outer corridor 17 times and the length of 6 spoke aisles (the radius of the circunference), we have that the total distance she walks is:

Distance = 17 * 157.08 + 6 * 25 = 2820.36 feet
