Answer:

45 green beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of red beads be 'x'

Given that, Carrie has 3 times as many green beads as red beads

Number of green beads = 3 times number of red beads

Number of green beads = 3x

She 2 as many blue beads as green beads

Number of blue beads = 2 times the number of green beads

Number of blue beads = 2(3x) = 6x

She has 150 total

Therefore,

Number of red beads + Number of green beads + Number of blue beads = 150

x + 3x + 6x = 150

10x = 150

x = 15

Thus, number of green beads = 3x = 3(15) = 45

Thus there are 45 green beads

I hope this helps

Please help!! Thanks

X=3

X/-3 = -1 ,Leave X by itself so multiply by -3 on both sides.

X = -1*-3

X = 3, negative times negative equals positive.

Im supposed to solve this equation using logarithms but I don't know how.

Ghella [55]

Given:

$3(4^x)=5^(x+1)$

To find:

The solution of the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

$3(4^x)=5^(x+1)$

It can be written as

$3((2^2)^x)=5^(x+1)$

$3((2^{2x})=5^(x+1)$ $[\because (a^m)^n=a^{mn}]$

Taking log on both sides.

$\log [3((2^{2x})]=\log 5^(x+1)$

$\log 3+ \log ((2^{2x})=\log 5^(x+1)$ $[\because \log (ab)=\log a+\log b]$

$\log 3+ 2x\log 2=(x+1)\log 5$ $[\because \log x^n=n\log x]$

Putting values of logarithms, we get

$0.477+ 2x(0.301)=(x+1)0.699$ $[\because \log 2 =0.301, \log 3=0.477, \log 5=0.699]$

$0.477+ 0.602x=0.699x+0.699$

$0.602x-0.699x=0.699-0.477$

$-0.097x=0.222$

Divide both sides by -0.097.

$x=\dfrac{0.222}{-0.097}$

$x=-2.288656$

$x\approx -2.289$

Therefore, the value of x is -2.289.

What is the radius for a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 = 64

k0ka [10]

Answer:

<h2>radius of 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

step one :

Given that the equation of the circle is described as

$x^2 + y^2 = 64$

To correctly identify the center of the circle we have to place the equation in the standard form.

the standard equation for a circle is

$(x-h)^2+(x-k)^2= r^2$

step two :

let us re-write the given equation so that we can compare it with the general equation of circle

$(x-0)^2+(x-0)^2= 8^2$

step three:

From this above equation in step two we can see that the circle has a radius of 8
