Twice the difference of x and 5 is -33

1 answer:

3 0

2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5

This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.

Find the volume of the region between the cylinder z equals y^2 and the? xy-plane that is bounded by the planes x equals 0 x=0?,

-Dominant- [34]

The volume is given by the triple integral

$\displaystyle\iiint_V\mathrm dV=\int_{x=0}^{x=4}\int_{y=-4}^{y=4}\int_{z=0}^{z=y^2}\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$

which evaluates to

$\displaystyle4\int_{y=-4}^{y=4}y^2\,\mathrm dy=\dfrac{512}3$

where the coefficient 4 comes from integrating with respect to $x$ , and the integrand $y^2$ comes from integrating with respect to $z$ .

What would 0.1666667 be as a fraction

amm1812

That would be 1/6. To find this, first, move the decimal two places to the right, and put that number over 100:
16.666.../100
This fraction can then be simplified by dividing both sides by 16.666... to get 1/6.
In reality, the fraction 1/6 simply cannot be expressed as a decimal, but many people just put 0.1666666... because it is a pretty good approximation.
Hope this helps!

the bakery bought 4 bags of flour containing 3.5 kg each. 0.475 kg of flour is needed to make a batch of muffins, and 0.65 kg is

GalinKa [24]

The left out amount of floor is $\boxed{\bf8.85\,\,{\text{kilogram}}}$ .

Further explanation:

The weight of one bag of flour is 3.5 kg.

The bakery bought 4 bags of flour.

Therefore, the total weight of 4 bags is calculated as follows:

$4\times\left({3.5\,\,{\text{kg}}}\right)=14\,\,{\text{kg}}$

The weight of flour needed for a batch of muffins is 0.475 kg.

Therefore, the weight of flour needed for 4 batches of muffins is calculated as follows:

$4\times\left({0.475\,\,{\text{kg}}}\right)=1.9\,\,{\text{kg}}$

The weight of flour needed for a loaf of bread is 0.65 kg.

Therefore, the weight of flour needed for 5 loaves of bread is calculated as follows:

$5\times\left({0.65\,\,{\text{kg}}}\right)=3.25\,\,{\text{kg}}$

So, the total weight of floor used in the process of making muffins and loaves of bread is calculated as follows:

$3.25\,\,{\text{kg+}}1.9\,\,{\text{kg}}=5.15\,\,{\text{kg}}$

Now, the weight of floor that is left out in the bag is calculated as follows:

$14\,\,{\text{kg}}-5.15\,\,{\text{kg}}=8.85\,\,{\text{kg}}$

Thus, the left out amount of floor is $\boxed{\bf8.85\,\,{\text{kilogram}}}$ .
