I have a secret number (x). Seven more than quadruple my number equals -5. What is

my number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Your number is 0.5, 2/4, or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up your equation and then solve for x. We know that quadruple your number (x) plus 7 equals -5. Quadruple your number is the same as multiplying by 4. So it would be 4x + 7 = -5. We add seven to both sides and that would leave us with 4x = 2. Then we divide both sides by 4 to get x on it's own. x = 2/4 or 1/2

A students regular desk is 30 inches long and 18 inches wide. The teachers desk is similar to the student desk and has a length of 50 inches. What is the width of the teachers desk?

Answers

Answer:

Width of Teacher desk = 30 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of student desk = 30 in

Width of student desk = 18 in

Length of teacher desk = 50 in

Find:

Width of Teacher desk

Computation:

Assume,

Width of Teacher desk = x

Teacher desk is similar to student desk

Length of student desk / Width of student desk = Length of teacher desk /  Width of Teacher desk

30 / 18 = 50 / x

x = [(50)(18)] / 30

Width of Teacher desk = 30 in

6x+11=3x-1, what is x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]6x+11=3x-1[/tex]

To solve this equation, we must first minus(subtract) 3x from both sides of the equation.

[tex]6x+11-3x=3x-1-3x[/tex]

And this equals:

[tex]3x+11=-1[/tex]

Now we must subtract again, but 11 times now.

[tex]3x+11-11=-1-11[/tex]

And this equals:

[tex]3x-12[/tex]

Now let's make this into a fraction to divide.

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}[/tex]

We get [tex]\frac{-12}{3}[/tex]

Now we got our answer:

[tex]x=-4[/tex]

Hope this helps!

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you wanna subtract the 1 from the 11 then add subtract the 3x from the 6x and you should have 3x = -12 the. You just divide -12 by 3

{3x+y=10
{X-4y=-1 You must solve for Y

Answers

Answer:

x = 3 and y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{3 x + y = 10

x - 4 y = -1

Express the system in matrix form:

(3 | 1

1 | -4)(x

y) = (10

-1)

Solve the system with Cramer's rule:

x = 10 | 1

-1 | -4/3 | 1

1 | -4 and y = 3 | 10

1 | -1/3 | 1

1 | -4

Evaluate the determinant 3 | 1

1 | -4 = -13:

x = 10 | 1

-1 | -4/(-13) and y = 3 | 10

1 | -1/(-13)

Simplify 10 | 1

-1 | -4/(-13):

x = -1/13 10 | 1

-1 | -4 and y = 3 | 10

1 | -1/(-13)

Simplify 3 | 10

1 | -1/(-13):

x = -(10 | 1

-1 | -4)/13 and y = -1/13 3 | 10

1 | -1

Evaluate the determinant 10 | 1

-1 | -4 = -39:

x = (-1)/13×-39 and y = -(3 | 10

1 | -1)/13

(-1)/13 (-39) = 3:

x = 3 and y = -(3 | 10

1 | -1)/13

Evaluate the determinant 3 | 10

1 | -1 = -13:

x = 3 and y = (-1)/13×-13

(-1)/13 (-13) = 1:

After coming out of the tunnel it has to travel it's own length to pass through the tunnel completely. So the train of length 180 metres takes 0.889 seconds to pass through a tunnel of length 680 metres completely.

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of point S are (4,-7).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the locations of points S and T, the midpoint coordinates are set by midpoint formulas:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{x_{S}+x_{T}}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\bar y = \frac{y_{S}+y_{T}}{2}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x_{S}[/tex], [tex]x_{T}[/tex] - x-Components of S and T.

[tex]y_{S}[/tex], [tex]y_{T}[/tex] - y-Components of S and T.

The coordinates of S are cleared:

[tex]x_{S} = 2\cdot \bar x -x_{T}[/tex]

[tex]y_{S} = 2\cdot \bar y - y_{T}[/tex]

If [tex]\bar x = 2[/tex], [tex]\bar y = -2[/tex], [tex]x_{T} = 0[/tex] and [tex]y_{T} = 3[/tex], the equations are now solved:

[tex]x_{S} = 2\cdot (2) -0[/tex]

[tex]x_{S} = 4[/tex]

[tex]y_{S} = 2\cdot (-2)-3[/tex]

[tex]y_{S} = -7[/tex]

The coordinates of point S are (4,-7).

[tex] |7 + 8x| > 5[/tex]
I've tried solving this inequality multiple times and I just can't get it right. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. please help​

Answers

The absolute value is defined as

[tex]|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{if }x\ge0\\-x&\text{if }x<0\end{cases}[/tex]

So for example, if x = 3, then |x| = |3| = 3, since 3 is positive. On the other hand, if x = -5, then |x| = |-5| = -(-5) = 5, since -5 is negative. The absolute value is always positive.

For the inequality |7 + 8x| > 5, you consider the two cases where the argument to the absolute value (the expression you find inside the bars) is either positive or negative.

• If 7 + 8x ≥ 0, then |7 + 8x| = 7 + 8x, so that

[tex]|7+8x|>5\implies 7+8x>5 \implies 8x>-2 \implies x>-\dfrac14[/tex]

• Otherwise, if 7 + 8x < 0, then |7 + 8x| = -(7 + 8x), so that

[tex]|7+8x|>5\implies-(7+8x)>5\implies7+8x<-5\implies8x<-12\implies x<-\dfrac32[/tex]

The solution to the inequality is the union of these two intervals.

Angie and Kenny play online video games. Angie buys 1 software package and 1 month of gameplay. Kenny buys 2 software packages and 3 months of gameplay. Each software package costs ​$50. If their total cost is ​$218​, what is the cost of one month of gameplay?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of one-month gameplay is $39.33 or 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of one month = x

The cost of software = $50

The total amount that can be spent = $218

Therefore, we have to find the cost of one month of game play. Here is the following equation.

218 = (50 + x) + (50 + 2x)

218 = 100 + 3x

218 – 100 = 3x

118 = 3x

x = 118 / 3

x = 39.33 or 39

thus, the cost of one-month gameplay is $39.33 or 39.

A number is 2 /5 times another number. Their sum is 70. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

50,20

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x and y respectively.

According to the question,

y=2/5 times of x

Or,

y= 2x/5 ..........(1)

Again,

or, x+y=70

or, x+2x/5=70

or, (5x+2x)/5=70

or, 7x=350

therefore x=50

putting the value of y in equation (1)

y=2x/5

y= (2×50)/5

therefore, y=20

Answer:

x = 175

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

A number is 2 /5 times another number. Their sum is 70.

find: the numbers (coefficient)

solution:

cross multiply

2 ( x ) = 70

5

2 (x) = 70 (5)

2 (x) = 350

x = 350

       2

x = 175

check:

2 ( x ) = 70

5

2 ( 175 ) = 70

5

350 = 70

 5

70 = 70
