Answer:

x = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8 - \frac{5}{3} x = 17 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

- 24 - 5x = 51 ( add 24 to both sides )

- 5x = 75 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

x = - 15

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that the question is

-8-(5/3)x=17\\

Then we have

-(5/3)x=17+8\\

Multiply both sides by -(3/5) to get

x=25\cdot (-3/5)\\x=(25/5)\cdot (-3)\\x=5\cdot (-3)\\x=-15

Eloise scored a total of 268 points during the basketball season. Of her total points, l points came from left handed shots. She
Naddik [55]

Answer:

\bold{268=225+}l

43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total points scored in basketball season, T = 268

Points scored from right handed shots, R = 225

Points scored from left handed shots = l

To find:

To write an equation to describe the situation and find the value of l for left handed shots ?

Solution:

We know that the points can be scored in basketball either by right hand shots or by left hand shots.

In other words, we can say that:

Total points scored in basketball season = points scored from right handed shots + points scored from left handed shots

i.e.

T = R + l\\\Rightarrow \bold{268=225+}l

So, the equation is:

\bold{268=225+}l

Now, let us find the value of l from the above equation:

l=268-225\\\Rightarrow \bold{l = 43}

Number of points scored from left handed shots = <em>43</em>

This can be solved by using a standard normal distribution table. The z-score for 34 pounds is 1, the reason being that 34 is one standard deviation above the mean of 28 pounds.
Can use the table to find the cumulative probability for z = 1.00 and post the result? If you do this we can do the next simple steps.

Question 1
12345 [234]

Answer:

A). Surface area = 222 cm²

Volume = 180 cm³

B). Surface area = 375 cm²

Volume = 360 cm³

C). % increase in surface area = 67.57%

% increase in volume = 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached base of a prism has been given.

A). Surface area of the prism = (Perimeter of the base of the prism) × height + 2(area of the base)

Perimeter of the base = 5 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 8

                                       = 30

Area of the base = 8×5 - 2×2 = 36 cm²

Surface area of the prism = 30×5 + 2×(36)= 222 cm²

Volume of the prism = volume of the bigger prism - volume of the smaller prism cut off

                                  = 8×5×5 - 2×2×5

                                  = 200 - 20

                                  = 180 cm³

B). Surface area of the prism if it's height is 10 cm,

Surface area = 30×10 + 2×(36) = 372 cm²

Volume of the prism = 8×5×10 - 2×2×10

                                   = 400 - 40

                                   = 360 cm³                                      

C). Increase in surface area = 372 - 222 = 150 cm²

% increase in the surface area = \frac{150}{222}\times 100 = 67.57%

Increase in volume = 360 - 180 = 180 cm³

% increase in volume = \frac{180}{180}\times 100 = 100%
