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

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

Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 8 inches and a height that is three times the radius round to the nearest hundr

patriot [66]

volume for cylinder = pi x r^2 x h

radius = half the diameter = 8/2 =4

height = 3 times the radius = 3*4 =12

using 3.14 for pi

volume = 3.14 x 4^2 x 12 = 602.88 cubic inches

Hi there, hope everyone is well and staying cool :D

gogolik [260]

Answer:

A) By using the Pythagorean Theorem, we will see that $8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2$ . If we simplify it, we will find that the hypotenuse of Δ $ABC = 17$

B) approximately $18.79$

Step-by-step explanation:

A) In all honesty, you don't really need to look at ΔACD at all for this one. Just use the Pythagorean Theorem (like previously stated) and solve!

***Pythagorean Theorem is $leg^2 + leg^2 = hypotenuse^2$

B) Here, you can also use the Pythagorean Theorem! However this time, the equation will be, $8^2 + 17^2 = AD$ .

$8^2 + 17^2 = 64 +289$

$64 + 289 = 385$

$\sqrt{385} \\$ ≈ $18.79$

Hope you do well on the rest of your math problems :D

Solve the equation.

Dafna1 [17]

Hi there!

Here are all the steps into solving this equation :

$\frac{9z+4}{5}$ - 8 = 5.4

Add 8 on each side of the equation → 5.4 + 8 = 13.4

$\frac{9z+4}{5}$ = 13.4

Multiply each side of the equation by 5 → 13.4 × 5 = 67

9z + 4 = 67

Subtract 4 from each side of the equation → 67 - 4 = 63

9z = 63

Divide each side of the equation by 9 → 63 ÷ 9 = 7

z = 7

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
