Jalil and Victoria are each asked to solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x. Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x because each x has a different unknown coefficient. Victoria believes there is a solution, and shows Jalil her work:

ax – c = bx + d
ax – bx = d + c
x (a – b) = d + c
x = x equals StartFraction d plus c Over a minus b EndFraction.
How can Victoria justify Step 3 of her work?

The equation that models this relationship is y=2x. How many liters of water should Austin combine with 16 scoops of juice mix? Write your answer as a whole number or decimal.

Answers

Answer:

8 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y = 2x

where y is the number of scoops of juice mix, and x is the liters of water required.

To determine the liters of water required for 16 scoops of juice mix;

y = 16

So that,

16 = 2x

x = [tex]\frac{16}{2}[/tex]

  = 8

x = 8 liters

Therefore, Austin would combine 8 liters of water to the 16 scoops of juice mix.

what is the name of this shape?​

Answers

Answer:

this shape consists of a square and triangle

The shape is a Pentagon ... but that won't help get the perimeter or area. you'll have to find the areas and perimeters of both the square and triangle and then add them for the final answer.

Area of figure = area of square + area of triangle

=> Area of Square = a² (a = side)

side = 3.5 cm ...so...

Area of square = a²

= 3.5 × 3.5

= 12.25 cm²

=> Area of Triangle = ½ × base × height

= ½ × 3.5 × 1.64

= 2.87cm²

Area of figure = area of square + area of triangle

Area of figure = 12.25 + 2.87

= 15.12 cm²

Perimeter of figure = P of square + P of triangle

=> P of square = 4a

= 3.5 × 4

= 14cm

=> P of isosceles triangle = 2a + base

= 2 × 2.4 + 3.5

= 4.8 + 3.5

= 8.3cm

Total perimeter of figure = P of square + P of triangle

Total perimeter = 14 + 8.3

= 22.3 cm

Raymond just got done jumping at Super Bounce Trampoline Center. The total cost of his session was \$43.25$43.25dollar sign, 43, point, 25. He had to pay a \$7$7dollar sign, 7 entrance fee, and \$1.25$1.25dollar sign, 1, point, 25 for every minute he was on the trampoline.

Answers

Answer:

29 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Total = \$43.25[/tex]

[tex]Entrance\ Fee = \$7[/tex]

[tex]Per\ Minute = \$1.25[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of minutes (t) that he was on the trampoline.

This can be expressed as:

[tex]Total\ Payment = Entrance\ Fee + Amount\ per\ minute * t[/tex]

Where t represents the number of minutes

Substitute values for Total, Entrance Fee and Amount per minute

[tex]43.25 = 7 + 1.25 * t[/tex]

[tex]43.25 = 7 + 1.25t[/tex]

Solving further to get the value of t, we have:

[tex]1.25t = 43.25 - 7[/tex]

[tex]1.25t = 36.25[/tex]

[tex]t = 36.25/1.25[/tex]

[tex]t = 29[/tex]

Answer:

29 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + 1.25t = 43.25 is the equation

A car went 64 miles on 2 gallons of gas in the morning, 16 miles on 1/2 gallon of gas at noon, and 32 miles on 1 gallon of gas at 5:00 PM. Is the amount of gas used proportional to the distance the car drove? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

Yes,

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 64 miles for 2 gallons and divide it by 2. And it leads up to 32 miles and 1 gallon. Now you divide that by 2 again and get 16 miles and 1/2 gallon. So, to check that you can take 16+16 and you get 32 and take 32+32 and you get 64.

The Pythagorean Theorem, given by the formula a^2+b^2=c^2, relates the three sides of a right triangle. Solve the formula for the positive value of a in terms of b and c.

Answers

Answer:

c=√a²b²

Step-by-step explanation:

The positive value of 'a' in terms of b and c will be [tex]a =\sqrt{b^2-c^2}[/tex].

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Pythagorean theorem states that in the right angle triangle the hypotenuse square is equal to the square of the sum of the other two sides. According to this statement, the areas of the squares on the other two sides add up to the size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse.

It is given that the formula of the Pythagorean theorem for a right-angle triangle is, a² + b² = c².

The value of c is calculated as:-

a² + b² = c²

Reverse the equation to calculate a.

c² =  a² + b²

Taking to the left side then the equation will become:-

a² = c² - b²

Taking square root on both sides of the equation.

[tex]\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{c^2-b^2[/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{c^2-b^2}[/tex]

Therefore, the positive value of 'a' in terms of b and c will be [tex]a =\sqrt{b^2-c^2}[/tex].

What is an angle ?

An angle is a mathematical term which we can defined, when two straight lines or rays meets at a common endpoint. The common point is called the vertex of an angle. The word angle comes from a Latin word named ‘angulus,’.

Interior angles:- The  inner angle made by the intersection of two polygonal sides.

Exterior angles:-  The  outer angle made by the intersection of two polygonal sides.

Given that,

All the exterior angles are,

(5x + 4), (7x + 4),(4x + 9),(4x + 1),(9x-6)

It is known that,

Sum of Interior angle & Exterior angle is equal to 180°

So we can calculate all the Interior angles,

180°- (5x + 4),  180°-(7x + 4),   180°-(4x + 9),   180°-(4x + 1),    180°-(9x-6)

Formula for sum of all the Interior angles = (2n-4)×90

So, n=5

Sum of all the Interior angles = 540°

[180°- (5x + 4)] + [180°-(7x + 4)]+[180°-(4x + 9)]+[180°-(4x + 1)] +[180°-(9x-6)] = 540

900- 29x- 12 = 540

x = 12

Hence, The value of x is, 12
