Answer:

10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-2)=34

Divide both sides by 4.

$x-2=\frac{34}{4}$

Reduce the fraction.

$x-2=\frac{17}{2}$

Add 2 to both sides.

$x=\frac{17}{2}+2$

Convert 2 into the fraction $\frac{4}{2}$ .

$x=\frac{17}{2} +$ $\frac{4}{2}$

Add the fractions by adding their numerators.

$x=\frac{17+4}{2}$

Add 17 and 4 to get 21

$x=\frac{21}{2}$ or 10.5

have a nice day!

Lilit [14]

X= 2 and x= -8/6 if you make it = 0
(10x-20)(6x+8)=0
10x-20=0
10x=20
x=2
6x+8=0
6x=-8
x=-8/6

X + x + x = 54<br> What’s the answer for this

Oliga [24]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x+x+x=54

(x+x+x)=54(Combine Like Terms)

3x=54

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x 3 = 54

3 x=18

a spherical balloon is deflated at a rate of 256pi/3 cm^3/sec. at what rate is the radius of the balloon changing when the radiu

Hunter-Best [27]

What you need to look for is $\frac { dr }{ dt }$ when r=8.

Now:

$Volume\quad of\quad a\quad sphere:\\ \\ V=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 }$

$\therefore \quad \frac { dV }{ dr } =\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi \cdot 3{ r }^{ 2 }=4\pi { r }^{ 2 }\\ \\ \therefore \quad \frac { dr }{ dV } =\frac { 1 }{ \frac { dV }{ dr } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } }$

$And:\\ \\ \frac { dV }{ dt } =-\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ Therefore:\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =\frac { dr }{ dV } \cdot \frac { dV }{ dt }$

$\\ \\ =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } } \cdot -\frac { 256\pi }{ 3 } \\ \\ =-\frac { 256 }{ 12 } \cdot \frac { \pi }{ \pi } \cdot \frac { 1 }{ { r }^{ 2 } }$

$\\ \\ =-\frac { 64 }{ 3{ r }^{ 2 } } \\ \\ When\quad r=8,\\ \\ \frac { dr }{ dt } =-\frac { 64 }{ 3\cdot { 8 }^{ 2 } } =-\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \\ \\ Answer:\quad -\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \quad cm/sec$

The length, width, and height of a rectangular prism are in the ratio 3:2:1, respectively. What is the length of the prism if it

Arturiano [62]

The three numbers have to multiply to 48 in a ratio of 3:2:1
which would be 6:4:2
so 6 inches
