9-x/5=3. Solve for x

kari74 [83]

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{\sf x=-6}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf \cfrac{9-x}{5}=3$

$\sf \cfrac{5\left(9-x\right)}{5}=3\times \:5$

$\sf 9-x=15$

$\sf 9-x-9=15-9$

$\sf -x=6$

$\sf \cfrac{-x}{-1}=\cfrac{6}{-1}$

$\sf x=-6$

Small Town USA has a population of 4•10 to the power of 4. Big town has a population of 2•10 to the power of 5. How many times l

Kryger [21]

Big town is 5.121 times larger than Small town.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In order to determine how much larger Big town's population is to Small town's population is, we need to convert the exponentials into actual numbers.

Small town's population $= 4.10\times 10^{4} = 41,000.$

Big town's population $= 2.10\times 10^{5} = 210,000.$

Step 2:

In order to determine how much larger Big town's population is to Small town's population is, we divide Big town's population by Small town's population.

$\frac{210,000}{41,000} = 5.121.$

So Big town is 5.121 times larger than Small town.
