2. What is the solution to the equation
1/2x + 3/2(x+1) - 1/4=5?

Answers

Answer 1

The answer to this question is

x=15/8

1/2x+3/2(x+1)-1/4=5

1/2x+3/2(x+1)-1/4=5

(1/2x+3/2x)+3/2-(1/4)=5

4/2x+3/2-(1/4)=5

4/2x+(3/2–1/4)-(3/2–1/4)=5-(3/2–1/4)

4/2x+0=5-(3/2–1/4)

2x=5-(6/4–1/4)

2x=5-(5/4)

2x=3 3/4

2x/2=(3 3/4)/2

x=15/4(1/2)

x=15/8

Answer 2

1/2x+3/2(x+1)-1/4=5 (Expand the polynomial)

(1/2x+3/2x)+3/2-(1/4)=5

4/2x+3/2-(1/4)=5

4/2x+(3/2–1/4)-(3/2–1/4)=5-(3/2–1/4)

4/2x+0=5-(3/2–1/4) (Express the fractions on the right side of the equation in the common denominator 4)

2x=5-(6/4–1/4)

2x=5-(5/4)

2x=3 3/4

2x/2=(3 3/4)/2

x=15/4(1/2)

x=

15/8 or 1 7/8 as a mixed fraction or 1.875 as a decimal numeral

PROOF

If x=15/8, then the inverse of the equation 1/2x+3/2(x+1)-1/4=5 returns

2x+(6/4–1/4)=5

2(15/8)+(6/4–1/4)=5

15/4+(5/4)=5

(15+5)/4=5

20/4=5 and

5=5 proves the root (zero) x=15/8 of the statement 1/2x+3/2(x+1)-1/4=5

C.H.

1/2x+3/2(x+1) --1/4=5

1/2 (1/x+3/ (x+1) =5+1/4

1/x + 3/x+1 =(5+1/4) ×2/1

x+ 1 +3x /x (x+1) = 10+1/2 =21/2

4x+1 = 21/2 [x^2+x]

8x+2= 21x^2+21x

21x^2 +-13 x -2 =0

a =21 b= 13 c= -2

X= [13 + -- (169 -- 4×21× -2)^1/2 ] /2×21

=[13 + - ( 169 + 168 )^1/2] /2×21

Discriminat =169+168=337 >0

HELPPP

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J and K are equal

8x - 23 = 6x + 11            Add 23 to both sides

8x = 6x + 11 + 23           Combine the right

8x = 6x + 34                  Subtract 6x from both sides

8x - 6x = 34                   Combine the left

2x = 34                           Divide by 2

x = 34/2

x = 17

=================================

M and L are both supplementary to J and K respectively.

J = 8x - 23

J = 8*17 - 23

J = 136-23

J = 113

K = 113

===================================

M + 113 = 180

M = 180 - 113

M = 67

L = 67

Answers

Answer:i i think Brenda 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Age problems are the algebra word problem which deals with the ages of people in the present time.

Given information-

Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda.

Brenda is twice as old as Carly.

The total of their ages is less than 40.

Age problems

Age problems are the algebra word problem which deals with the ages of people in the present time.

Suppose Abigail is A, Brenda is B and Carly is C years old.

As Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda. Thus,

[tex] A=B+5[/tex]                .... 1

As Brenda is twice as old as Carly. Thus,

[tex]C=\dfrac{B}{2} [/tex]                    ..... 2

As the total of their ages is less than 40.

[tex]A+B+C=40[/tex]

Keep the values of A and C from the equation 1 and 2 in the above equation,

[tex]\begin{aligned}\\ B+5+B+\dfrac{B}{2} &=40\\ 2B+\dfrac{B}{2} &=35\\ \dfrac{4B+B}{2}&=35\\ B&=\dfrac{35}{5} \times2\\ B&=14\\ \end[/tex]

Thus the Brenda is 14 year old. As the Abigail is 5 years older than Brenda. Thus the age of the Abigail is,

[tex]A=14+5\\ A=19[/tex]

Thus the Abigail is 19 year old.

Answers

Answer:

a. 2x + 3y = 1560

b. y = -2x/3 + 520

c. f(x) = -2x/3 + 520

Step-by-step explanation:

a. We are told that the profit on each Bagel is $2 for x bagels and $3 for each sandwich is $3

for a total of y sandwiches

So we have;

2x + 3y = 1560

b. Slope intercept form is generally

y = mx + b

So we have

3y = -2x + 1560

y = -2x/3 + 520

c. In function notation;

f(x) = -2x/3 + 520

On the other-hand, let assume that, the large Lego set built by Caleb is twice that of Mackenzie Lego set (that is 100 X 60 X 12 ), it could be found that, the cost for the large Lego set would cost minimum of $10.98

one factor of 8x^3+1 is 2x+1 The other factor is?

Answers

First, write 8x^3 in exponential form (8 is basically the same as 2^3)


So that you have 2^3*x^3+1


Multiply the terms with equal exponents by multiply the bases (1 is basically the same as 1^3)


So that it becomes (2x)^3+1^3



Then, using a^3+b^3 equals (a+b)(a^2-2ab+b^2), factor the expression so that it becomes
(2x+1)((2x)^2-2x+1^2)

Expand the second bracket


So the two factors are (2x+1) and (4x^2-2x+1)

Answer:

x = 3

y= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 30

y - 4x = 0  /*2

2x + 2y = 30

2y - 8x = 0

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

10x = 30

x = 3

y= 12

Answer:

( 3 , 12 )

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 30 and y - 4x = 0 are two given equation

Name The equation

2x + 2y = 30 ...(1)

y - 4x = 0

y = 4x ...(2)

Now, Put the value of y in equation 1

2x + 2y = 30

2x + 2(4x) = 30

2x + 8x = 30

10x = 30

x = 30/10

x = 3

Now,

Put the value of x in equation 2

y = 4x

y = 4(3)

y = 12

Thus, The value of x is 3 and the value of y is 12

FOR VERIFICATION ONLY:-

2x + 2y = 30 ...(1)

2(3) + 2(12) = 30

6 + 24 = 30

30 = 30

y = 4x ...(2)

12 = 4(3)

12 = 12

Hence, L.H.S = R.H.S

Step-by-step explanation:

FG is the geometric mean of EG and GH segments.

FG is the geometric mean of EG and GH by using the Right triangle altitude theorem.

Important information:

The given figure of a triangle EFH.Right triangle altitude theorem:

According to the Right triangle altitude theorem, if an altitude is drawn on the hypotenuse of a right triangle, then the altitude of a right triangle is the geometric mean of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

From the given figure it is clear that,

Triangle EFH is a right triangle because angle F is a right angle.FG is the altitude on the hypotenuse.Two segments of the hypotenuse are EG and GH.

Using the Right triangle altitude theorem, we get FG is the geometric mean of EG and GH.
