-7.5 (x - 3) = 3.75
what is the value of x ?

Answers

Answer 1
-7.5 (x - 3) = 3.75
-7.5 x + 22.5  = 3.75
-7.5 x = - 18.75
       x = 2.5

hope it helps
Answer 2

Answer:  The required value of x is 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of x in the following equation :

[tex]-7.5(x-3)=3.75~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)[/tex]

To find the value of x, we need to solve the given equation (i).

The solution of equation (i) is as follows :

[tex]-7.5(x-3)=3.75\\\\\\\Rightarrow x-3=\dfrac{3.75}{-7.5}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x-3=-0.5\\\\\Rightarrow x=3-0.5\\\\\Rightarrow x=2.5.[/tex]

Thus, the required value of x is 2.5.

For the bake sal, Sandra baked 4 trays of cookies, with 12 cookies on each tray. Teo baked 6 pans of brownies and divided each pan into 8 piece.

Plz help, u will be awarded 20 points if u help.

Answers

( 4 x 12 )+( 6 x 8 )


total .      96
Final answer:

Sandra and Teo will have a total of 96 items for the bake sale. We find this by first multiplying the number of trays Sandra baked by the number of cookies per tray, then multiplying the number of Teo's brownie pans by the pieces per pan, and finally adding our two results together.

Explanation:

The subject of the question is Mathematics, specifically it is an arithmetic problem involving multiplication and addition. It is a middle school grade level question.

To solve it, we need to multiply the number of trays Sandra baked by the number of cookies on each tray. So, 4 (trays) * 12 (cookies) = 48 cookies.

Next, multiply the number of brownie pans Teo baked by the number of pieces each pan was divided into. That is, 6 (pans) * 8 (pieces) = 48 brownies.

Finally, to find the total number of items for the bake sale, we simply add our two results: 48 (cookies) + 48 (brownies) = 96 items.

Andrei has a glass tank. First, he wants to put in some marbles, each of which has a volume of 0.4 liters. Then, he wants to fill the tank with water until it's completely full. If he uses 50 marbles, he will have to add 33 liters of water.

What is the volume of the tank?
Andrei has exactly 20 liters of water. How many marbles does he need so the tank is full?

Answers

lol at first i thought the question was a joke but now that u edited i think i got it

35 litters because  
0.04*50 is 2
2+33 is 35
Final answer:

The volume of Andrei's tank is 53 liters. To fill the tank with 20 liters of water, Andrei needs 82 marbles, as marbles and water together must reach the tank's total volume.

Explanation:

To find the volume of the glass tank that Andrei has, we need to calculate the total volume of marbles and water that fills the tank. Since each marble has a volume of 0.4 liters and he uses 50 marbles, the total volume of the marbles is:

0.4 liters/marble × 50 marbles = 20 liters

With 33 liters of water needed to fill the tank after the marbles are added, the total volume of the tank is:

20 liters (marbles) + 33 liters (water) = 53 liters

To determine how many marbles Andrei can add if he has exactly 20 liters of water, we set up the equation with the unknown number of marbles (represented by 'x'):

0.4 liters/marble × x marbles + 20 liters (water) = 53 liters (total volume)

From the equation, we solve for x:

0.4x + 20 = 530.4x = 33x = 33 / 0.4x = 82.5 marbles

Since Andrei cannot use a fraction of a marble, he'll need to use 82 marbles to fill the tank with 20 liters of water.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex] feet per hour fast is Kelly's knitting speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity 1 such as 4 meter per seconds or 4 miles per hour.

As per the statement:

Kelly is knitting a scarf for her brother. it took her 1/3 hour to knit 3/8 foot of the scarf.

She took /3 hour to knit 3/8 foot of the scarf.

Then by definition of unit rate we have;

[tex]\text{Unit rate per hour} = \frac{\frac{3}{8} }{\frac{1}{3} } =\frac{3}{8} \cdot 3 = \frac{9}{8}[/tex] feet

Therefore, [tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex] feet per hour fast is Kelly's knitting speed.

Find the multiplicative inverse, or reciprocal, of . 5 over 9

Answers

multiplicative inverse is 9/5 or 9 over 5

Final answer:

The multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of the fraction 5/9 is 9/5, which is the result of flipping the numerator and denominator.

Explanation:

The multiplicative inverse, or reciprocal, of a fraction is another fraction in which the numerator and denominator are flipped. For the fraction 5 over 9, the multiplicative inverse is found simply by reversing the numerator and the denominator, turning it into 9 over 5.

To illustrate this with an example, let's consider the fraction ½. The reciprocal of ½ is 2, as their product equals 1 (1/2 x 2 = 1). Similarly, the reciprocal of 5/9 will be such that (5/9) x (9/5) = 1.

Hence, the reciprocal of 5/9 is 9/5.

Explain how you can use a straight edge and a compass to construct an angle that is both congruent and adjacent to a given angle

Answers

An adjacent angle is one of two angles that lie next to each other. They both share a common boundary line but do not overlap each other.  Congruent angles are angles that are opposite each other. They  only share a center point. You construct an adjacent angle and a congruent angle using a straight line and a compass by drawing two congruent angles with the same size angle in both angles. Because both angles are constructed using the same compass measurement; both angles are considered to be both congruent and adjacent.

a group of hikers climbed from salt flats (elevation-55.03 ft) to talon bluff (elevation 620.75 ft). what is the difference between talon bluff and salt flats?

Answers

620.75-(-55.03)= 620.75+55.03 = A difference of 675.78ft

To calculate the elevation difference between Talon Bluff and Salt Flats, you subtract the elevation of Salt Flats from the elevation of Talon Bluff, resulting in a total ascent of 675.78 feet

The question asks about the elevation difference between two points, Salt Flats and Talon Bluff. To find the difference in elevation, you simply subtract the elevation of Salt Flats from the elevation of Talon Bluff. Therefore, the difference is

Elevation of Talon Bluff - Elevation of Salt Flats = 620.75 ft - (-55.03 ft) = 675.78 ft.

This means that the hikers ascended a total of 675.78 feet in elevation from the Salt Flats to Talon Bluff

1) h/4 + 9 = 6

You want to isolate h by itself, so subtract both sides by 9.

h/4 = -3

Then, get rid of the denominator, 4, by multiplying both sides by 4 (nit a fraction but as awhole number)

h = -12


2) Apply the same concept to this problem.

m/-3 + (-2) = 11

Distribute the sign over the parenthesis.

m/-3 - 2 = 11

Add 2 to both sides.

m/-3 = 13

To get rid of the denominator, multiply both sides by -3

m = -39


3) r/-5 - (-6) = 10

r/-5 + 6 = 10

r/-5 = 4

r = -20


4) z/-4 + (-5) = -12

z/-4 - 5 = -12

z/-4 = -7

z = 28


5) t/-8 - (-4) = -6

t/-8 + 4 = -6
