-1/3(x-15)=-4 what is the correct sequence of operations

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps I show will be listed from first-to-last.

-1/3x + 5 = -4 (Distribute)

-1/3x = -9 (Subtract 5 from both sides)

x = 3 (Multiply both sides by -3)

Rebecca went swimming yesterday. After a while she had covered one fifth of her intended distance. After swimming six more lengths of the pool, she had covered one quarter of her intended distance. How many lengths of the pool did she intend to complete?

Answers

Answer:

E. 120

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 40

B. 72

C. 80

D. 100

E. 120

Let

x = the intended distance

y = length of the pool

She covers one fifth of her intended distance

Distance covered = 1/5 of x

= x/5

After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance

x/5 + 6y = 1/4 of x

x/5 + 6y = x/4

Collect like terms

6y = x/4 - x/5

6y = 5x - 4x/20

6y = x/20

x = 20 * 6y

= 120y

x = 120y

The intended distance Rebecca wants to cover = 120

Point Q' is the image of (-5,1) under a translation by 6 units to the right and 2 units down

Answers

Answer:

The object coordinate Q is (-11,3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The translation is given as : ( 6,-2 )

The image coordinates for Q' is ( -5,1 )

So, to get the coordinates of object point Q (x,y), will be;

 Q (x,y)  + ( 6,-2 )---translation --------------⇒image Q' ( -5,1 )

Thus,

x+6 = -5

x= -5-6= -11

and

y+ -2 = 1

y-2=1

y=1+2 =3

Thus the object point coordinates Q is (-11,3 )

Answers

Answer:

a. 70,000

b. 24,000,000

c. 3,600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

You round all the numbers and multiply the rounded numbers.

So...

a. 656 = 700

106 = 100

7000*100= 70,000

b. 3108 = 3000

7942 = 8000

3000*8000= 24,000,000

c. 425 = 400

9311 = 9000

400*9000= 3,600,000

A granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredients. One gram of carbohydrate contains 4 calories.The equation represents the relationship between these quantities. List the facts. * 4c + 5 = 27

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression that modeled the relationship between these quantities (calories from grams of carbohydrate and the rest of the ingredients) as

4c+5 = 27

From the equation, the constant value of 5 represents the calories in grams of  the rest of the ingredients present in the bite.

Let us calculate the value of c from the equation

4c+5 = 27

4c + 5- 5 = 27-5

4c = 22

c = 22/4

c = 5.5

This means that the total calories of carbohydrate the granola bite contains is 4(5.5) i.e 21 calories of carbohydrate

Note that 8 cannot be the solution to the equation because for us to eliminate 5 from both sides of the equation, we need to subtract it from both sides not add. If 5 was added to both sides, the value of c would have been (32/4 i.e 8) which would have been wrong.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to be able to determine the polynomials that are divisible by (x-1), this means that x-1 must be a factor for the functon to be able to divide any of the polynimial.

Since x-1 is a factor, we can get the value of x

x-1 = 0

x =0+1

x = 1

Next is for to substitute x - 1 into the polynomial and see the ones that will give us zero

For A(x)=3x^3+2x^2-x

A(1) = 3(1)^3+2(1)^2-(1)

A(1) = 3+2-(1)

A(1) = 5-1

A(1) = 4

Since A(1) ≠ 0, then x-1 is not divisible by the polynomial function.

For B(x)=5x^3-4x^2-x

B(1)=5(1)^3-4(1)^2-1

B(1)=5-4-1

B(1)=1-1 = 0

Since B(1) = 0, hence x-1 is divisible by 5x^3-4x^2-x

For the polynomial  C(x)= 2x^3-3x^2+2x-1

C(1)=2(1)^3-3(1)^2+2(1)-1

C(1)=2-3+2-1

C(1)= -1+1

C(1)= 0

Since C(1) = 0, hence x-1 is divisible by the

For the polynomial D(x)=x^3+2x^2+3x+2

D(1)=1^3+2(1)^2+3(1)+2

D(1)=1+2+3+2

D(x) = 8

Hence the polynomial D(x) is not divisible by x-1

Hence the correct options are B(x)=5x^3-4x^2-x and 2x^3-3x^2+2x-1

B(x) and C(x)

Cape Corp. Will pay a dividend of $4.40 next year. The company has stated that it will maintain a constant growth rate of 5 percent a year forever. a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.) b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?

The price of the stock can be calculated as:

= dividend next year/(required return - growth rate)

= 4.4/(17% - 5%)

= 4.4/12%

= 4.4/0.12

= 36.67

b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?

At 10%

= 4.4/(10% - 5%)

= 4.4/5%

= 4.4/0.05

= 88

5. A car travels at a speed of 72 miles per hour. Write a direct variation equation for the distance, y, the car will travel in x hours. How far will the car travels in 4.5 hours?​

Answers

Answer:

 y  = 72x

324miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

      Speed of the car = 72miles/hr

       distance  = y

        time  = xhrs

Unknown:

Write a direct variation equation for the distance=  ?

Distance covered in 4.5hrs =?

Solution:

A. Write a direct variation equation for the distance;

    A direct variation is a linear equation.

   It often takes the form y = kx

   

For this problem;

      Distance  = speed x time

input the parameters;

      y  = 72x

The direct variation equation is  y  = 72x

B. Distance traveled in 4.5hrs

   y  = 72x

  x is the time taken;

  So;

        y  = 72 x 4.5  = 324miles
