Can you post 4.3? We need more information to answer this.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 13/7 or as a decimal 1.857142857
How did i get the answer:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
so 1/2 of 10 is 5, 1/2 of 16 is 8
-3/5 of 15 is -9 and -3/5 of -35 is POSITIVE 21
all together should look like 5x+8+−13=−9x+21
(now we have to combine like terms)
8+ -13= -5
5x -5 = -9x+21
Step 2: Add 9x to both sides
5x + 9x= 14x
14x -5 = 21
Step 3: Add 5 to both sides.
21+5= 26
14x=26
Step 4: Divide both sides by 14.
26/14= 1.85714286 or 13/7
Answer:
C. the initial number of club members, in hundreds
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of such an expression is ...
(initial value)×(growth factor per period)^(number of periods)
The use of 12 in the exponent suggests that the growth factor of 1.02 is an annual factor. If that is the case, for t months, the membership should be modeled as ...
1.8(1.02^(t/12))
_____
As written, the expression is not an exponential expression. With appropriate parentheses, it might be a good model if t is the number of <em>years</em> (not <em>months</em>), and if the expected growth rate is 2% per month.
1.8(1.02^(12t))
Answer:
- 12 gallons 84%
- 8 gallons 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to use an "X-diagram" to solve mixture problems. On the left side are the constituents of the mix; in the middle is the result of the mix; and on the right side are the differences between the numbers on each diagonal. These differences are the ratio numbers for the mix.
Here, that means the ratio of 84% solution to 4% solution is ...
48 : 32 = 12 : 8
Note that the last two "ratio numbers" were chosen so their sum is 20, hence they represent the number of gallons of the corresponding constituent in the mix. (The sum of the first two ratio numbers is 48+32=80, so to get a sum of 20, we divide each by 4.)
Mary must use ...
- 12 gallons of 84% acid solution
- 8 gallons of 4% acid solution
You may note that this solution takes much longer to explain than to do. The math here can all be done without a calculator.
_____
<em>Check</em>
12 × 84% + 8 × 4% = 10.40 = 20 × 52%
_____
<em>Usual Solution</em>
A more conventional approach would be to assign x to the amount of 84% solution needed. Then the number of gallons of acid in the mix is ...
0.84x + 0.04(20 -x) = 0.52(20)
0.80x + 0.8 = 10.4 . . . . simplify
0.80x = 9.6 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.8; next, divide by 0.8
x = 9.6/0.8 = 12 . . . . gallons of 84% acid
20-x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . gallons of 4% acid
