The coefficient of x in the equation is 1/(300 grams). Multiply by the reciprocal of that, which is (300 grams).
x = (300 grams)×(2 grams)/(100 grams) = (300×2/100) grams = 6 grams
_____
This is the way you solve any equation where x is multiplied by some value in the only term on one side of the equal sign.
4/8x - 6 = - 24
First you want to get the x term by itself:
add 6 to both sides:
4/8x = - 18
now isolate x from the numbers:
multiply both sides by 8/4:
x = -36
Answer:
Jan earns $4 more per hour than Eli.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4.7 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal lines in the diagram are parallel, so the angle of depression at D and the angle of elevation at F are congruent. So, you have a right triangle with the measure of one acute angle (F) and the length of the adjacent side (EF = 10 yd). You are being asked to find the opposite side (DE).
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the necessary relation:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Filling in the given information, you have ...
tan(25°) = DE/(10 yd)
Multiplying by 10 yd gives ...
(10 yd)tan(25°) = DE ≈ 4.663 yd ≈ 4.7 yd
