Answer:
x = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
5x - 2(x + 1) = 1/4
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- <u>Distribute -2:</u> 5x - 2x - 2 = 1/4
- <u>Combine like terms:</u> 3x - 2 = 1/4
- <u>Add 2 to both sides:</u> 3x = 9/4
- <u>Divide both sides by 3:</u> x = 3/4
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
5(3/4) - 2(3/4 + 1) = 1/4
15/4 - 2(7/4) = 1/4
15/4 - 14/4 = 1/4
1/4 = 1/4
Answer:
11+x because the equation is reversabel.
Step-by-step explanation:
Below are the choices:
A. 80 mL of the 3.5% solution and 120 mL of the 6% solution
<span>B. 120 mL of the 3.5% solution and 80 mL of the 6% solution </span>
<span>C. 140 mL of the 3.5% solution and 60 mL of the 6% solution </span>
<span>D. 120 mL of the 3.5% solution and 80 mL of the 6% solution
</span>
Let fraction of 3.5% in final solution be p.
<span>p * 3.5 + (1 - p) * 6 = 4.5 </span>
<span>3.5p + 6 - 6p = 4.5 </span>
<span>2.5p = 1.5 </span>
<span>p = 3/5 </span>
<span>3/5 * 200 = 120 </span>
<span>Therefore the answer is B. 120 ml of 3.5% and 80 ml of 6%.</span>
Answer:
x= -2, x= -10
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 12x + 36 = 16
Began by setting this quadratic equation to 0. To do this, in this equation you must subtract.
x^2+12x+20=0
Next, we plug this into the quadratic formula, where a in this case is 1(there is nothing in front of x^2), b is equaled to 12(there is a 12 as the coeefficient of 12x), and c is equaled to 20.
The quadratic formula is as goes:
(-b+-(this means plus or minus)√b^2-4ac)/(2a)
After pluggin in and simplifying, the answer is x= -2 and x= -10
