Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = -20

~Simplify

4x - x + 4

~Subtract 4 to both sides

3x = -24

~Divide 3 to both sides

x = -8

Best of Luck!

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - (x - 4) = - 20

Distribute the minus sign

4x - x +4 = -20

Combine like terms

3x+4 = -20

Subtract 4 from each side

3x+4-4 = -20-4

3x = -24

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -24/3

x = -8

M is proportional to the cube of r. when r=3m,m=216.when r=5 find the value of m

klio [65]

Answer:

The value of m is 1000 for r=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that m is proportional to the cube of r

It can be written as:

$m \propto\ r^3$

When the proportionality symbol is removed a proportionality constant is introduced in the equation.

Let k be the proportionality constant

$m = kr^3$

Given

r=3,m=216

Putting the values

$216 = k(3)^3\\216 = k * 27\\k = \frac{216}{27}\\k = 8$

The equation will now become

$m = 8r^3$

Putting r = 5

$m = 8(5)^3\\m = 8 * 125\\m = 1000$

Hence,

The value of m is 1000 for r=5

2 25 divided by 11 10 in fraction

koban [17]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{55}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{25} \div \frac{11}{10}$

$\frac{2}{25} \times \frac{10}{11}$

$\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{11} = \frac{2 \times 2}{5 \times 11}$

$\frac{4}{5 \times 11}$

$= \frac{4}{55}$
