What is the answer for -31 = 9+ 8x? Step by Step.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ryzh [129]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>-5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

-31=9+8x

we need to isolate the variable by moving 8x to the left side and -31 to the right side....therefore 8x becomes a negative, -8x, and -31 a positive....so now it would look like...

-8x=9+31

then we work the right side out...

-8x=40

to get x we need to divide -8x by 8 so we do the same to the right side as well....

-8x=40

÷8 ÷8

so...

<em>x=-5</em>

hope this helped you- have a good day bro cya)

People having experience = 80

Percent haing experience = 40 % = 40 / 100

40/ 100  x X = 80

x= 80  x 100 / 40 = 200

While visiting Wallawulla State​ Park, Joe approximated the angle of elevation to the top of a mound to be 40 degrees . After wa
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Height of mound = 794 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To illustrate the angle of elevation and distance, i have drawn it and attached below.

Now, from my diagram;

h = the height of the mound

At his first point of his trip to the foot of the mound, the angle of elevation is 40°, while the horizontal distance to the foot of the mound is "X"

So, by triangle definition,

tan(40°) = h/x

And so;

h = x tan40

h = 0.8391x  - - - - (eq 1)

At his second point of the trip to the foot of the mound, Joe is now,

"(x - 450) ft" from the foot of the mound.

Thus, his angle of elevation is 40 + 18 = 58°.

So, by triangle definition,

tan(58°) = h/(x - 450)

h = (x - 450)•(tan(58°))

h = 1.6003(x - 450)

h = 1.6003x - 720.135   - - - - -(eq2)

To get the height(h) of the mound, let's equate (eq1) to (eq2).

0.8391x = 1.6003x - 720.135

1.6003x - 0.8391x = 720.135

0.7612x = 720.135

x = 720.135/0.7612

x = 946.0523 ft

Let's put this value for x in eq (1);

h = 0.8391 x 946.0523 = 793.83 ft ≈ 794ft

2) Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95. How m
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

13 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the pens and y be the pencils

Given:

Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95.

Total pens and pencils is 22

So, x+y=22----------------(1)

And he bought all utensils for $11.95. and each pen for 75 cents and pencils for 40 cents.

0.75x+0.40y=11.95------------(2)

solve equation 1 and equation 2 for x and y.

From equation 1.

x+y=22

y=22-x----------------(3)

put y value in equation 2.

0.75x+0.4(22-x)=11.95

0.75x+0.4\times 22-0.4x=11.95

0.75x+8.8-0.4x=11.95

0.75x-0.4x=11.95-8.8

0.35x=3.15

x=\frac{3.15}{0.35}

x=9

Now substitute x value in equation 3.

y=22-9

y=13

So, he buy 13 pencils.
