Answer:

u = -5/9

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

-3(u + 2) = 5u - 1 + 5(2u + 1)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>u</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                             -3u - 6 = 5u - 1 + 10u + 5
  2. Combine like terms:             -3u - 6 = 15u + 4
  3. Add 3u to both sides:          -6 = 18u + 4
  4. Subtract 4 on both sides:    -10 = 18u
  5. Divide 18 on both sides:      -10/18 = u
  6. Simplify:                                -5/9 = u
  7. Rewrite:                                 u = -5/9

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in u into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>u</em>:                     -3(-5/9 + 2) = 5(-5/9) - 1 + 5(2(-5/9) + 1)
  2. Multiply:                                -3(-5/9 + 2) = -25/9 - 1 + 5(-10/9 + 1)
  3. Add:                                      -3(13/9) = -25/9 - 1 + 5(-1/9)
  4. Multiply:                                -13/3 = -25/9 - 1 - 5/9
  5. Subtract:                               -13/3 = -34/9 - 5/9
  6. Subtract:                               -13/3 = -13/3

Here we see that -13/3 does indeed equal -13/3.

∴ u = -5/9 is a solution of the equation.

Answer:

\sf u = -\dfrac{5}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the following:

\longrightarrow -3(u + 2) = 5u - 1 + 5(2u + 1)

5(2u + 1) = 10u + 5:

\longrightarrow -3(u + 2) = 5u - 1 + 10u + 5

-3(u + 2) = -3u - 6:

\longrightarrow -3u - 6= 10 u + 5 u - 1 + 5

Grouping like terms,

5u - 1 + 10u + 5 = (5u + 10u) + (-1 + 5):

\longrightarrow -3u - 6 = (5u + 10u) + (-1 + 5)

5u + 10u = 15u:

\longrightarrow -3u - 6 = 15u + (-1 + 5)

5 - 1 = 4:

\longrightarrow -3u - 6 = 15u + 4

Subtract 15 u from both sides:

\longrightarrow (-3u - 15u) - 6 = (15u - 15u) + 4

-3u - 15u = -18u:

\longrightarrow -18u - 6 = (15u - 15u) + 4

15u - 15u = 0:

\longrightarrow -18u - 6 = 4

Add 6 to both sides:

\longrightarrow (6 - 6) - 18u = 6 + 4

6 - 6 = 0:

\longrightarrow -18u = 4 + 6

4 + 6 = 10:

\longrightarrow -18u = 10

Divide both sides of -18 u = 10 by -18:

\longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{-18u}{-18}= \dfrac{10}{-18}

\sf \dfrac{-18}{-18}=1:

\longrightarrow \sf u = \dfrac{10}{-18}

\sf \dfrac{10}{-18}=\dfrac{5}{-9}:

\longrightarrow \sf u = \dfrac{5}{-9}

Multiply numerator and denominator of \sf  \dfrac{10}{-18} by -1:

\longrightarrow \sf u = \dfrac{-5}{9}

Can Someone Help REAL QUICK Me. ? Please
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: Option 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both top and bottom by the same amount. You only multiply or divide, never add or subtract, to get an equivalent fraction.

I hope this helps.

I need help on number 18
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Volume = 35185.8 km^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for the volume of a cone: Volume = \pi  R^{2}  \frac{h}{3}

Where R is the radius of the cone's circular base (in your case half of 80 km,(that is 40 km)

And h stands for the height of the cone (in your case 21 km)

We replace such in the formula and calculate its final value:

Volume = \pi 40^{2} \frac{21}{3} = \pi  1600 \frac{21}{3} = \pi 1600 (7) = 35185.83772...

We round it to the number of decimals your problem request (let's say to one decimal) and also include the cubic units:

Volume = 35185.8 km^{3}

Simplify the expression:<br> 3p+–p
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

3p-p

Step-by-step explanation:

I always think of the negative sign out ruling the positive sign so let's do that for the -p part.

3p-p is what it becomes

Your question says simplify but just in case you want the answer here it is:

-p is also the same as -1p

So therefore we have

3p-1p

And we subtract the coefficients and keep the variable

2p would be your answer but once again I don't know if you wanted that so just to be sure I put 3p-p as my "answer".
