A container holds an unknown number of pints of water. Let p represent this unknown amount. Nari pours three-fourths of this volume into an empty pot. She then adds another 2 pints of water. The pot now holds a total of 11pints of water. Set up and solve an equation to find the value of p.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent this unknown amount.

Nari pours three-fourths of this volume into an empty pot. This can be written as:= 3/4 × p = 3/4p = 0.75p

She then adds another 2 pints of water and the pot now holds a total of 11pints of water. This means we will add 2 to 0.75p and equate to 11. This will be:

0.75p + 2 = 11

0.75p = 11 - 2

0.75p = 9

p = 9/0.75

p = 12

P equals to 12

Answer 2

This question is based on solving linear equation.Therefore, the answer is 12 pints of total amount of water.

Given:

Nari pours three-fourths of this volume into an empty pot.She then adds another 2 pints of water. The pot now holds a total of 11 pints of water.

Let the unknown amount of pints of water is  p.

According to the question,

She pours three-fourths of this volume into an empty pot. This can be written as:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{4}\times p= \dfrac{3}{4} p = \bold{0.75p}[/tex]

She add on  2 pints of water  to 0.75 p in pot, then it becomes  total of 11 pints of water.

In ,mathematically expressed as,

[tex]\begin{alligned}0.75p+2&=11\\0.75p&=11-2\\0.75p&=9\\p&=\frac{9}{0.75}\\\bold{p&=12}\end{alligned}[/tex]

Therefore, there is total amount of 12 pints water.

A rope which is 10.3 centimeters long is cut into 4 pieces of equal length. Write an equation to find the length of
each piece? Use x as the length of each piece of rope.

Answers

x - 4 = 10.3 EQUATION

SOLUTION:

x = 10.3 + 4

x = 14.3

Answer: x = 10.3 ÷ 4

Step-by-step explanation: if we were to work this out forgetting about the equation it can be worked out by dividing the 10.3 by 4 to find the length of the pieces so, now to express it as an equation, we have to add x into our sum 4 × ? = 10.3 : 4x = 10.3. The answer for x would be x = 2.58.

1. y=-(x-6)^2+7 vertical compression or stretch
2. y=1/4(x+5)^2 vertical compression or stretch
3. y=4(x+1)^2-6 vertical compression or stretch

Answers

Answer:

1. No vertical compression or stretching but will open up downward.

2. 1/4 vertical stretch

3. 4 vertical compression

Step-by-step explanation:

Any time your dealing with vertical stretching or compression it will always be the number before the parentheses.

So in 1. it is - or basically -1 which means the parabola will be open up downward. And in this problem there is no stretching or compression

2. Is the 1/4 is a vertical stretch

3. 4 is a vertical compression.

Or what also could help is when the number before the parentheses is bigger such as number 4 the closer together the parabola will be. And the smaller the number like 1/4 the wider the parabola will be.

Solve 2(4x+2)=4x-12(x-1)

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+2)=4x-12(x-1)   (by PEDMAS, we deal with the parentheses first by using the distributive property)

4x(2)+2(2)=4x+ x(-12) -1 (-12)

8x + 4 = 4x - 12x +12  (simplyfy each side)

8x + 4 = - 8x +12   (add 8x to both sides)

8x + 4 + 8x = 12

16x + 4 = 12    (subtract 4 from both sides)

16x = 12 - 4

16x = 8  (divide both sides by 16)

x = 8/16

x = 0.5

Describe and correct the error a student made when starting to solve the equation 8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5) 8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5) (2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5) 2 ^ (3x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5) Choose the correct answer below A. The student should have divided both sides by 2 ^ 2 to simplify the expression B. The student did not convert 8 to the correct power of 2 C. The student did not distribute 3 in * (2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3) x + 3 D.The student should have expressed the initial rational exponent as the sum of two rational exponents ..

Answers

Answer:

C. is the correct option

C. The student did not distribute 3 in * (2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3) x + 3

and x = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

Here is how the student solved the equation

8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

(2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

2 ^ (3x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5) -----  This is where the student made the error.

The student did not distribute 3 in * (2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3).

This is how to solve the equation

8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

8 ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

(2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3) = 2 ^ (2x - 5)

Then, we will 3 distribute in  (2 ^ 3) ^ (x + 3), so that we get

2 ^ (3x +9) = 2 ^ (2x -5)

Since the bases on both sides of the equation are equal, we can equate the powers so that we get

(3x +9) = (2x -5)

Then we will collect like terms

3x - 2x = -5 -9

∴ x = -14

This solution could be better written in this format

[tex]8^{x+3} = 2^{2x-5} \\2^{3} ^{(x+3)} = 2^{2x-5}\\2^{(3x+9)} = 2^{2x-5}\\{(3x+9)} = {2x-5} \\3x-2x= -5-9\\x = -14[/tex]
