2x+7=12x-6 looking for x

Answers

Answer 1
Hey!

Let's start by writing the problem:
[tex]2x+7=12x-6[/tex]
Subtract 7 from both sides.
[tex]2x+7-7=12x-6-7[/tex]
[tex]2x=12x-13[/tex]
Subtact 12x from both sides.
[tex]2x-12x=12x-13-12x[/tex]
[tex]-10x=-13[/tex]
Divide both sides by -10.
[tex]\frac{-10x}{-10}=\frac{-13}{-10}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{13}{10}[/tex]

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this problem!
Thanks!

Flying against the wind, a jet travels 4400mi in 8 hours. Flying with the wind, the same jet travels 5820mi in 6 hours. What is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Let J = rate of jet in still airLet W = rate of wind Distance formula:  d = rt   /   r = d/t Flying against the wind the jet flies at a rate of  J - W = 1860 miles/3 hours = 620 miles per hourFlying with the wind the jet flies at a rate of J+W = 9180 miles/9 hours = 1020 miles per hour The average of these 2 rate is the speed of the jet in still air J = (620+1020)/2 = 820 miles per hour J - W = 620  

820 - W = 620
W = 820 - 620 = 200 miles per hour The jet in still air flies at a rate of 820 mph(miles per hour)The wind speed is 200 mph(miles per hour)

Explain what needs to happen to the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number. a. nothing happens c. change the inequality sign to an equals sign b. flip the inequality sign d. the inequality needs to be graphed on a number line

Answers

flip the inequality sign 
so the answer is B

Answer:

(B) flip the inequality sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider an inequality such that [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], then if we multiply the inequality with a negative number such as [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].

Also, if we divide the above inequality  [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], by a negative number that is  [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].

Therefore, if we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, then it flips the inequality sign.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Answer: [tex]\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}[/tex]


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A geometric sequence with its first term [tex]a_1=a=3[/tex]

and second term [tex]a_2=-9[/tex]

We know that the common ratio in of a geometric sequence=[tex]\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n-1}}[/tex]

Thus, common ratio [tex]r=\frac{-9}{3}=-3[/tex]

We know that the explicit rule for geometric sequence is written as

[tex]a_{n}=ar^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}..[\text{by substituting the values of 'a' and 'r' in it }][/tex]

Thus, the explicit rule for the given geometric sequence is [tex]\ a_{n}=3(-3)^{n-1}[/tex] for every n ,a natural number.

Answers

One way to observe the skewness of a data set is to find the quartiles: Q₁, Q₂, Q₃ and then sketch the box plot

We have the data set already in ascending order, so finding the quartiles is quite straight forward. 

We have Q₁ = 2, Q₂ = 3, Q₃ = 5 (refer to the first picture below)

The box plot is given in the second picture and from this plot, we can see that the data tail slightly on the right, and this shows a positive skew.

Sophie has a hard rubber ball whose circumference measures 13 inches. she wants to store it in a box. what is the number of cubic inches in the volume of the smallest cube- shaped box with integer dimensions that she can use?

Answers

Let r = radius of the hard rubber ball.

Because the circumference of the ball is 13 inches, therefore
2πr = 13
r = 13/(2π) = 2.069 in

In order to fit the ball into a cube-shaped box with integer dimensions, each side of the box should measure 3 inches (the next integer greater than 2.069).

The volume of the cube-shaped box is 3³ = 27 in³.

Answer: The volume is 27 in³.

Find the area of a square with apothem 9 in. Round to the nearest whole number.

Answers

The apothem is the line from the center of the polygon (square) to the midpoint of a side.

So, if the apothem is 9in, the length of the side is 2 * 9in = 18 in.

And, the area of the square is (length of the side)^2 = (18 in)^2 = 324 in^2

Answer: 324 n^2

Answer:

The area of the square is 324 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The apothem of the square is 9 inches.

The side of the square is twice the length of the apothem.

Hence, the side of the square is given by

[tex]a=2\times 9=18\text{ in}[/tex]

The area of a square is the given by

[tex]A=a^2\\A=18^2\\A=324\text{ in}^2[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the square is 324 square inches.

What is the prime factorization of -96? tell me how do u get the answer

Answers

hello : 
 the prime factorization of -96 is :  - 3×2^5

Answer: -1 x 2^5 x 3

Step-by-step explanation: To find the prime factorization of -96, we need to first factor out -1, which gives us 1 x (-1) x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3. Then, we can rewrite -1 as -1^1, and combine the 2's to get 2^5. So the prime factorization of -96 is -1^1 x 2^5 x 3.

Permutations!!
If 9 actors must sit together how many ways are there to seat 13 people around the table?

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the number of ways to seat 13 people around a table with 9 actors sitting together, we treat the 9 actors as one unit and then arrange the five units around the table, resulting in (4! * 9!) different possible arrangements.

Explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the number of ways to seat 13 people around a table if 9 actors must sit together. This can be approached as a permutations problem in combinatorics.

Firstly, treat the 9 actors as one unit since they must sit together. With this in mind, we effectively have 5 units to arrange: the group of 9 actors and the remaining 4 individuals. As the seating arrangement is around a circular table, we can fix one person's seat and arrange the remaining units. As a result, there are (5-1)! ways to arrange these units since circular permutations eliminate the concept of a distinct 'starting' point that linear permutations have.

Now we need to consider the arrangements of the 9 actors within their group. Since their relative positions to each other matter, they can be permuted in 9! ways.

Therefore, the total number of seating arrangements would be the product of the two permutations: (5-1)! * 9!.

Calculating this gives us (4!) * 9! = (4*3*2*1) * (9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) different possible arrangements.

Answers

This is Pythagorean's Theorem, with one leg being 10 and the hypotenuse being 16.  Using those values in the theorem looks like this:
[tex] 10^{2} + b^{2} = 16^{2} [/tex]
and [tex]100+ b^{2} =256[/tex]

so [tex] b^{2} =156[/tex]
Take the square root of both sides to find that b = 12.5

A model for a company's revenue is R=-15p^2+300p+12,000, where p is the price in dollars of the company's product. What prize will maximize revenue?

Answers

check the picture below.

[tex]\bf \textit{ vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}\\\\ \begin{array}{lccclll} R = &{{ -15}}p^2&{{ +300}}p&{{ +12,000}}\\ &\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\ &a&b&c \end{array}\qquad \left(-\cfrac{{{ b}}}{2{{ a}}}\quad ,\quad {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}\right)[/tex]

so the Revenue will be the highest at   [tex]\bf {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}[/tex]   and that will happen at the price of    [tex]\bf -\cfrac{{{ b}}}{2{{ a}}}[/tex]
In order to do this you have to complete the square to get the vertex of the equation. The vertex will tell you the max value or the min value of whatever it is we are looking for. Here, our x values are the prices of whatever we are selling and the y values are the revenue dollars. Completing the square looks like this for us:
[tex]R(p)=-15 p^{2}+300p+12,000[/tex]
Move the 12,000 over to the other side and set the equation equal to 0:
[tex]-15 p^{2}+300p=-12,000[/tex]
In order to complete the square, the leading coefficient on the squared term has to be a 1 and it's a -15, so we have to factor that out:
[tex]-15( p^{2}-20p)=-12,000 [/tex]
Now it's ready to complete the square on it. Do this by taking half the linear term, squaring it, and then adding it in. Our linear term is 20p.  Half of 20 is 10 and 10 squared is 100, so we will add in 100 on the left. Let's do this next step in two parts:
[tex]-15( p^{2}-20p+100)=-12,000 [/tex]
That's not quite complete yet because if we add in 100 inside the parethesis on the left we have to add in that same amount on the right. But on the left, we didn't just add in 100, we added in -15 TIMES 100 cuz we can't just forget about the -15 we factored out.  That looks like this then:
[tex]-15( p^{2}-20p+100)=-12,000-1,500 [/tex]
The whole reason for doing this is to create a perfect square binomial on the left which is what we have done. The perfect square binomial is this (and we are going to do the subtraction on the right at the same time):
[tex]-15(p-10)^{2}=-13,500[/tex]
If we move the right side over to the left we get this:
[tex]-15(p-10) ^{2}+13,500=0 [/tex]
which gives us a vertex of (10, 13,500).  That means that at a price of $10, the max revenue will be $13,500.  See how beautifully that works out!??
