What value of p makes this equation true? 3p − 8 = −23

Mathematics
1 answer:
valkas [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\boxed{\sf p=-5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf  3p - 8 = -23

First, rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation:

\sf 3p=-23+8

Add -23 + 8 = -15

\sf 3p=-15

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable "3" :

\sf \cfrac{3p}{3} =\cfrac{-15}{3}

Cross out common factor:

\sf p=-5

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
max2010maxim [7]

<u>Answer</u>:

The velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains the same.

So, the total kinetic energy before collision = the total kinetic energy after collision.

For the given problem let the following:

m₁ = mass of tennis racket = 0.311 kg

m₂ = mass of the ball = 0.057 kg

u₁ = velocity of tennis racket before collision = 30.3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the ball before collision = -19.2 m/s

v₁ = velocity of tennis racket after collision

v₂ = velocity of the ball after collision

Right ⇒east  (+) , Left⇒ west (-)

v₁ = [ u₁ * (m₁ - m₂) + u₂ * 2m₂ ]/ (m₁ + m₂)

  = ( 30.3 * (0.311 - 0.057) - 19.2 * 2 * 0.057 ) / ( 0.311 + 0.057)

  = 14.966 m/s.

So, the velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

Alice, Bryan and Cindy share the cost of renting an apartment in the ratio
never [62]

Answer: $3510

Step-by-step explanation:

Fro th question, Alice, Bryan and Cindy share the cost of renting an apartment in the ratio 3:6:4 respectively and we.are informed that Alice pays $810 monthly.

Alice ratio = 3

Bryan's ratio = 6

Cindy's ratio = 4

Total ratio = 3+6+4 = 13

Since Alice has a ratio of 3, this means that Alice pays 3/13 of the total monthly rent. Let the total rent be x. Therefore,

3/13 of x = 810

3/13 × x = 810

3x/13 = 810

3x = 810 × 13

3x = 10530

x = 10530/3

x = 3510

Therefore, the monthly rent is $3510

Find the slope of the line y = 5x + 4.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

x=1/5y+−4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

y=5x+4

Step 1: Flip the equation.

5x+4=y

Step 2: Add -4 to both sides.

5x+4+−4=y+−4/5x=y−4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5=y−4/5x=1'5y+−4'5

Answer:

x=1/5y+−4/5
