what should be the first step in solving the equation 1.2 W -3.8 equals 12.4

Answers

Answer 1
1.2W - 3.8 = 12.4
1.2W = 12.4 + 3.8
1.2W = 16.2
W = 16.2 ÷ 1.2
W = 13.5
Answer 2

Answer:

Step 1 would be to add 3.8 on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Equation mentioned in the question is a simple Algebra Equation. We need to solve for W. To do so, we need to get the variable W alone on one side.

Initial Equation:  [tex]1.2W-3.8 = 12.4[/tex]

Step 1: Add 3.8 on both sides. [tex]1.2W = 16.2[/tex]

Step 2: Divide 1.2 on both sides. [tex]W = 13.5[/tex]

This gives us the answer of W = 13.5.

The length of the rectangle is 4 times the height. the area of the triangle is 63 cm2. Find the width. Round to the nearest tenth of an inch

Answers

area = l x h

l=4h

area = 4h x h = 4h^2

4h^2 =63

63/4 = 15.75

h^2 = 15.75

sqrt(15.75)=h

how do you solve this system of linear equation by substitution

x-3y=-12
y=2x+9

Answers

Finding x:
If y=2x+9, substitute y into the equation x-3y=-12.
You will get:  x-3(2x+9)=-12
Now, distribute:  x-6x-27=-12
Add like terms:  -5x-27=-12
Add 27 to both sides:  -5x=15
Divide both sides by -5:  x=-3

Now, substitute this value of x into the equation to find y:  y=2(-3)+9
Multiply:  y=-6+9
Add:  y=3

Here is the solution:  (x,y)=(-3,3)

Answers

a=g

v=⌠a

v=gt+vi

h=⌠v

h=gt^2/2+vit+hi

So height as a function of time is:

h(t)=gt^2/2+vit+hi

g=-9.8m/s^2, vi=31m/s, hi=0 so

h(t)=-4.9t^2+31t

And it will hit the ground when h(t)=0 so

-4.9t^2+31t=0

A) 0.125 hours

B) 5 hours

C) 8 hours

D) 9 hours

Answers

I think it's 8 hours. If it takes 5 hours to drain 500 gallons, then the rate is 100 gallons drained per hour. So if it continues at this rate, the remaining 300 gallons would be drained in three hours, plus the five spent on the other 500 gallons, so it would be 8 hours for all 80p gallons to empty the swimming pool .

Ryan flew from Wiley Post to Ponca City and back. Ryan maintained an average rate of 450 mph going to Ponca City and an average rate of 400 mph returning to Wiley Post. If the actual flying time for the round trip was one hour, about how far is it from Wiley Post to Ponca City? Round to nearest mile.

A.
0.47 miles

B.
212 miles

C.
239 miles

D.
3,600 miles

Answers

The answer is B, and here's why.  Set up a table for "there" and "back" and use the distance = rate * time formula, like this:
               d             r            t
there       d           450         t
back        d           400        1-t

Let me explain this table to you.  The distance is d, we don't know what it is, that's what we are actually looking for.  We only know that if we go somewhere from point A to point B, then back again to point A, the distance there is the same as the distance back.  Hence, the d in both spaces.  There he flew 450 mph, back he flew 400 mph.  If the total distance was 1 hour, he flew an unknown time there and one hour minus that unknown time back.  For example, if he flew for 20 minutes there, one hour minus 20 minutes means that he flew 60 minutes - 20 minutes = 40 minutes back.  See? Now, because the distance there = the distance back, we can set the rt in both equal to each other.  If d = rt there and d = rt back and the d's are the same, then we can set the rt's equal to each other.  450t = 400(1-t) and
450t = 400 - 400t and 850t = 400.  Solve for t to get t = .47058.  Now, t is time, not the distance and we are looking for distance. So multiply that t value by the rate (cuz d = r*t) to get that the distance one way is
d = 450(.470580 and d = 211. 76 or, rounded like you need, 212.

f(x)= 3x^2+9x+12

Answers

You can rearrange f(x) as:

f(x) = 3(x^2 + 3x) + 12 = 3(x+1.5)^2 +5.25

So you can see the vertex is at (0,5.25) when x = -1.5

The axis of symmetry then lies in x = -1.5

Answer with explanation:

Equation of the Parabola is

[tex]f(x)= y=3x^2+9x+12\\\\y=3[x^2+3 x+4]\\\\y=3[(x+\frac{3}{2})^2+4-(\frac{3}{2})^2]\\\\y=3[(x+\frac{3}{2})^2+(\frac{\sqrt 7}{2})^2]\\\\y-\frac{21}{4}=3[(x+\frac{3}{2})^2][/tex]

Vertex of the parabola can be obtained by

   [tex]x+\frac{3}{2}=0\\\\ x=\frac{-3}{2}\\\\ y-\frac{21}{4}=0\\\\y=\frac{21}{4}\\\\ Vertex(\frac{-3}{2},\frac{21}{4})[/tex]

Find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse with equation x squared divided by one hundred plus y squared divided by thirty six = 1.

Answers

The equation of an ellipse is:
(x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b², where h, k are the coordinates of the center, a & b represent half of the major & minor axis respectively.
The given equation is:
x²/100 + y²/36 = 1.( a =10 and b = 6)

CENTER: Since h and k = 0, then the center of this ellipse is the origin (0,0)

VERTICES: a² = 100, → a = +10 and a = -10, then the right vertex is (10,0) and the left vertex is (-10,0)

FOCI: The distance "c" from the center to the focus is given by the following:

If the ratio between the radii of the two spheres is 5:8, what is the ratio of their volumes?

Answers

Answer:  The required ratio of the volumes of two spheres is 125 : 512.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the ratio between the radii of the two spheres is 5 : 8.

We are to find the ratio of the volumes of the two spheres.

Let, 'r' and 'R' represents the radii of the two spheres, so

r : R = 5 : 8.

The volume of a sphere  with radius 'r' units is given by the formula:

[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3.[/tex]

Let, V and V' be the volumes of the spheres with radius r and R units respectively.

Then, the ratio of the volumes of the two spheres will be

[tex]\dfrac{V}{V'}=\dfrac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3}=\dfrac{r^3}{R^3}=\left(\dfrac{r}{R}\right)^3=\left(\dfrac{5}{8}\right)^3=\dfrac{125}{512}\\\\\\\Rightarrow V:V'=125:512.[/tex]

Thus, the required ratio of the volumes of two spheres is 125 : 512.

In the figure, sin ∠MQP =

a. cos N and sin R
b. sin R and sin N
c. cos N and sin M
d. cos R and sin N

Answers

The easiest way to get this problem correctly is by calculating the sines and cosines of all the angles in the choices then choosing the correct choice.

sin ∠MQP = sin(56) = 0.829
cos ∠N = cos(56) = 0.559
sin ∠R = sin(34) = 0.559
sin ∠N = sin(56) = 0.829
cos ∠N = cos(56) = 0.559
sin ∠M = sin(90) = 1
cos ∠R = cos(34) = 0.828

Based on these findings, it is obvious that sin ∠MQP is equal to cos ∠R and sin ∠N.
Thus, the correct choice is "d".

Eight people enter a race. If there are no ties, in how many ways can the first two places come out

Answers

Permutation and Combination

Permutation helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged in a particular manner. A permutation is denoted by 'P'.

The combination helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged without a particular manner. A combination is denoted by 'C'.

[tex]^nP_r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!},\ \ ^nC_r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!\times r!}[/tex]

where,

n is the number of choices available,

r is the choices to be made.

Given to us,

Eight people enter a race, n = 8,

There are no ties, r = 2,

As there is an equal chance of everyone being first and second, but also there will be cases where the first and second positions can be exchanged between the same two people. therefore, there is a particular order in which these 8 people can win. Thus, we will use permutation.

Permutation

[tex]^8P_2 = \dfrac{8!}{(8-2)!}=\dfrac{8!}{(6)!} = \dfrac{8\times 7\times 6!}{6!} = 8\times 7 = 56[/tex]

Hence, the number of ways the first two places can come out is 56.
