Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(2x - 1) = 3(x - 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

4x - 2 = 3x - 18 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x - 2 = - 18 ( add 2 to both sides )

x = - 16

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

Given

4(5 - 7b)- 4 = - 3(1 + 3b) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

20 - 28b - 4 = - 3 - 9b , that is

16 - 28b = - 3 - 9b ( add 9b to both sides )

16 - 19b = - 3 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

- 19b = - 19 ( divide both sides by - 19 )

b = 1

Molly swimming in a pool that is 25 m long. She swim 24 length of the pool and 40 minutes. What was the rate of speed in meters per hour?
Can you please tell me how you got the answer thank you

Answers

Answer:

the length she swim = 24m

time taken = 40 minutes =40/60hour

rate of speed= 24/(40/60)= 36mper hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because Molly swam across the pool 24 times, she swam a total of 24 * 25m = 600 meters.

600m in 40 minutes

Since 40 minutes * 1.5 = 60 minutes = 1 hour,

600m * 1.5 = 900m.

Hence Molly's speed was 900m/h.

What is 20-12x=8-10x

Answers

Answer:  x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

20 -12x = 8 - 10x      Add 12x to both sides

      +12           +12

20 = 8 + 2x      subtract 8 from both sides

-8     -8

12 = 2x     Divide both sides by 2

x = 6

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

20-12x=8-10x

Add 12x to each side

20-12x+12x=8-10x+12x

20 = 8 +2x

Subtract 8 from each side

20-8 = 8+2x-8

12 = 2x

Divide by 2

12/2 = 2x/2

Gracie can iron 3 shirts in 13 minutes. At this rate, how long will it take her to iron 10 shirts? Which proportion shows how to solve the problem?

Answers

Answer:

43 1/3 minutes to iron 10 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of shirts : Time taken

3 shirts : 13 minutes

10 shirts : x minutes

3 / 13 = 10 / x

Cross product

3 * x = 13 * 10

3x = 130

Divide both sides by 3

3x / 3 = 130 / 3

x = 43 1/3 minutes

x = 43 minutes 20 seconds

It will take 43 minutes 20 seconds to iron 10 shirts

Consider the segment AB with A positioned at (6,2). The midpoint of AB, M is located at (5, -3). What are the coordinates of point B? * O (7,7) O (4,-8) O (5.5, -0.5) O (4,5)​

Answers

Answer:

I didn't "do the math" yet at all, but draw it out on an X,Y axis...  Thinking about it logically...  If point A is in the upper right quadrant of the axis, because both X and Y coordinates are positive numbers, so you go right on the horizontal axis and up on the vertical axis...  Then the midpoint is in the lower right quadrant of the due to the X coordinate being a positive, thus you go right on the horizontal axis, but the Y coordinate is a negative, so you go down vertically... So point B cannot be above both the midpoint or point A, ruling out (7,7) and (4,5) as both Y coordinates of those answers (7 or 5) are higher than point A's Y coordinate of 2...  B would have to be below point A because the midpoint is below point A with a Y coordinate of -3... So this leaves either option (5,-0.5) or option (4,-8)...  However....  While (5,-0.5) has a lower Y coordinate than point A with -0.5, its Y coordinate is above the Y coordinate of the midpoint as well, since -0.5 is above -3...  So this doesn't jive as point B cannot be between point A and the midpoint to point B...  This logically leaves (4,-8) left to be the answer...  And if you drew on an X,Y axis the coordinates (6,2) as well as (5,-3) and (4,-8), then connect the dots, you'd find (5,-3) sits about half ways between (6,2) and (4,-8)...

So (4,-8) is probably the answer...

The best way to come to this conclusion mathematically is finding the slope (rise over run) of point A and the midpoint between point A and point B, then continuing the slope down, etc...  But this particular question with the multiple choice answers ruled all but 1 answer out...

To find the slope you take rise over run, which is the Y of the 2nd coordinate minus the Y of the 1st coordinate, divided by (or over) the X of the 2nd coordinate minus the X of the 1st coordinate....

IE: ( Y2 - Y1 ) / ( X2 - X1 ) = Rise / Run

So.... The 2nd coordinate's Y value is -3, and the 1st coordinate's Y value is 2...  Subtract 2 from -3, and you get -5...

Then the 2nd coordinate's X value is 5, and the first coordinate's X value is 6...  Subtract 6 from 5, and you get -1...

Divide -5 over -1, which equals the same as 5 over 1...  The rise is 5, the run is 1, the slope is 5 steps vertically for every 1 step horizontally...

Or visually... ( -3 - 2 ) / ( 5 - 6 ) which is -5 / -1...  Since both sides are negative, that's the same as 5 / 1... which is 5 vertical steps (rise) for every 1 horizontal step (run), or a slope of 5...

So add the slope rise of 5 to the Y coordinate of the midpoint, -3, and you get 2, which is the Y coordinate of point A...  And add slope run of 1 to the midpoint X coordinate, 5, and you get 6, the X coordinate of point A...  Now subtract the slope rise of 5 from the midpoint, -3, and you get -8...  So that tells you that point B has to have a Y coordinate of -8....  And now subtract the slope run of 1 from the midpoint X coordinate, 5, and you get 4...  The X coordinate of point B...  Giving you a point B coordinate of (4,-8)...

maria brought a blouse on sale for 20% off. the sale price was $21.76. what was the original price? round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer: $27.20

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought a blouse for 20% off so it means that she paid 80% of the original price.We can then set up the equation  

80% of x = 21.76   where x is the original price so solve for x

0.8x = 21.76  

x = 27.20

Which  means the original price is $27.20

The area of a square is 117 square meters which best represents the length of a side.

Answers

Hi do u still need the answer

The best representation for the length of a side of the square is 10.82 meters.

Given that the area of the square is 117 square meters.

Let's denote the length of the side of the square as "s."

The formula for area of square

= s²

Substituting the value of area of square 117 square meter back to the formula

117 = s²

Take the square root of both sides:

s = √(117)

s ≈ 10.82 meters

So, the length of a side of the square is 10.82 meters.
