Solve the proportion 45=28x using two different methods. Explain each method

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=45/28  

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

You need to isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable. In this case, the variable would be x. Isolate x and divide it by the two factors. You have your answer.

2.

Another way you could do it is by using a proportion. You would need to set up your proportion by dividing both sides of the equation by the same term and then simplify the whole problem. You will still be left with a variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

She needs to compare by division the following two numbers:

8 × 10^-6 and 4 × 10^-5

If she divides the whole parts and then divides the powers of ten, she must do both divisions in the same order.

That means either

a) divide 8 by 4, and then divide 10^-6 by 10^-5

or

b) divide 4 by 8, and then divide 10^-5 by 10^-6

Doing a), you get

8/4 = 2

10^-6 / 10^-5 = 0.1

Multiply the parts: 2 × 0.1 = 0.2

Doing b), you get

4/8 = 0.5

10^-5 / 10^-6 = 10

Multiply the parts: 0.5 × 10 = 5

Conclusion:

The smaller number, 8 × 10^-6, is 0.2 of the larger number, 4 × 10^-5,

or, stated differently,

the larger number, 4 × 10^-5, is 5 times the smaller number, 8 × 10^-6

Let's see what she did.

She divided 8 by 4.

Then she divided 10^-5 by 10^-6. This is a mistake because she reversed the order of the powers of 10 before dividing.

Let's look at the choices:

Choice d) is correct because it has both divisions in the same order and comes to the correct conclusion that the larger number is 5 times greater than the smaller number.

Answer: d)

Part B)

8 × 10^-6 = 0.000008

4 × 10^-5 = 0.00004

Larger number: 4 × 10^-5

c.) y = (3x)2 - 36
when x = 3


d.) y = 2.5x + 3.8
when x = 0.66

Answers

Answer:

a) y = 55

b) y = 45

c) y = -18

d) y = 5.45

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 15x - 50    when x = 7

y = 15(7) - 50

y = 105 - 50

y = 55

y = 1/2x + 20   when x = 50

y = 1/2(50) + 20

y = 25 + 20

y = 45

y = (3x)2 - 36    when x = 3

y = (3(3))(2) - 36

y = 9(2) - 36

y = 18 - 36

y = -18

y = 2.5x + 3.8    when x = 0.66

y = 2.5(0.66) + 3.8

y = 1.65 + 3.8

y = 5.45

whats the surface area?

whats the surface area?

Answers

Answer:

  1108 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the total surface area of the pentagonal prism shown.

Base area

The area of each of the two pentagonal bases is the sum of the area of the yellow rectangle and the area of the triangle above it. That sum is ...

  A = LW +1/2bh

  A = 5(12) +1/2(12)(9) = 12(5 +9/2) = 114 . . . . square inches

Lateral area

The lateral area of the prism is the sum of the areas of the 5 rectangles. That sum will be the product of the perimeter of the pentagonal base and the distance between bases.

  LA = (12 +5 +11 +11 +5)(20) = (44)(20) = 880 . . . . square inches

Total area

The total surface area of the figure is the sum of the two base areas and the lateral area:

  SA = 2(114 in²) +880 in² = 1108 in²

The surface area of the composite figure is 1108 in².

Answer: it should be 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Factor in the given variables.

(xy + 1) ÷ 7 becomes ((5)(11) + 1) ÷ 7

Step 2. Do the first part in parentheses

so (5) x (11) which is 55.

Step 3. Add together the full parentheses

so 55 + 1 which is 56

Final step, divide.

56 divided by 7 equals 8.

Jaha has designed a rocket. She determines the initial velocity of her rocket is 36 meters per second. She uses the function h(t) = - 9.8t ^ 2 + 36t to find the height, h(t) based on time, t, in seconds. Jana wants to know approximately when her rocket will be at the following heights:
24 Meters
36 Meters

Answers

To find when the rocket will be at a certain height, we can set the equation for height, h(t), equal to the given height and solve for t.

For 24 meters:

-9.8t^2 + 36t = 24

-9.8t^2 + 36t - 24 = 0

We can solve for t using the quadratic formula:

t = (-b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

where a = -9.8, b = 36, and c = -24. Plugging in these values, we get:

t = (-36 ± sqrt(36^2 - 4(-9.8)(-24))) / 2(-9.8)

t ≈ 1.87 seconds or t ≈ 3.14 seconds

So the rocket will be at a height of 24 meters approximately 1.87 seconds after launch and again approximately 3.14 seconds after launch.

For 36 meters:

-9.8t^2 + 36t = 36

-9.8t^2 + 36t - 36 = 0

Using the quadratic formula again, we get:

t = (-36 ± sqrt(36^2 - 4(-9.8)(-36))) / 2(-9.8)

t ≈ 1.16 seconds or t ≈ 3.66 seconds

So the rocket will be at a height of 36 meters approximately 1.16 seconds after launch and again approximately 3.66 seconds after launch.

Jackson works as a veterinary technician and earns $12.20 per hour. Jackson normally works 40 hours a week. And a normal week, what is his total pay before taxes and other deductions

Answers

Answer:

p = 12.20h

30.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackson works as a veterinary technician and earns per hour = $12.2

He works in a normal week = 40 hours

Let hours = h and weekly pay = p

p = 12.20h

p = $12.20 × 40

= $488.00

Last week Jackson was ill and missed some work.

 His total pay before deduction was $372.10

To find the hours he work the equation will be p = 12.20h

372.10 = 12.20h

372.10/12.20 = h

h= 30.5

He would made $488 a week before taxes

Front side. 12 x 10 = 120

2 triangle sides: 8 x 10 = 80, 80 x 2 = 160

Bottom side: 6 x 12 = 72

Back side: 8 x 12 = 96

Then add up the surface area

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:

Equation P: y + z = 6
Equation Q: 3y + 4z = 1

Which of the following is a possible step used in eliminating the y-term?

a. (y + z = 6) ⋅ 4
b. (3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 4
c. (y + z = 6) ⋅ −3
d. (3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 3

Answers

Answer:

c. (y + z = 6) ⋅ −3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to use elimination to eliminate y in a system of equations

y + z = 6

3y + 4z = 1

We can take the first equation and multiply by -3 to make the y term -3 so when we add  the equations -3y + 3y =0

-3(y + z = 6)

3y + 4z = 1

--------------------

-3y  -3z = -18

3y + 4z = 1

---------------------

0y  +z   = -17

Answer:

c. (y + z = 6) ⋅ -3

Explanation:

Equation P : y + z = 6

Equation Q : 3y + 4z = 1

In order to solve by elimination and remove the y-term, the coefficients of y must be same or negative to each other in both the equations.

So to make the y co-efficient similar here, multiply the first equation by -3

When done: (y + z = 6) · -3 = -3y - z = -18

Solving steps:

-3y - 3z = -18

3y + 4z = 1

------------------

    z = -17

There the y-term has been removed.
