If I think of a number halve it and subtract 2 results is 10.write equations and solve it please

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = number

x/2 - 2 = 10

add 2 to each side to get:

x/2 = 12

cross-multiply to get:

x = 24

Answer 2

Answer:

The equation is (x/2) - 2 = 10The equation solves to x = 24

============================================================

Explanation:

x = the number you think of

x/2 = the result after taking half of that number

(x/2) - 2 = subtract 2 from the previous result

(x/2) - 2 = 10 is the equation to solve

Solving said equation gets us...

(x/2) - 2 = 10

x/2 = 10+2 ... adding 2 to both sides

x/2 = 12

x = 12*2 ..... multiplying both sides by 2

x = 24

Notice how we basically undo everything applied to x. First we divided by 2, then we subtracted 2. So we follow that order in reverse to undo the "minus 2" (ie add 2 to both sides). Then we undo the division to multiply both sides by 2 to end up with the answer x = 24

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

Let's check that answer:

x = 24

x/2 = 24/2 = 12 ... result after taking half of x

(x/2) - 2 = (12)-2 = 10 ... result after subtracting two

We end up with 10 as your teacher mentioned, so it confirms that x = 24 is the answer.

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

Here's another way to check:

(x/2) - 2 = 10

(24/2) - 2 = 10

(12) - 2 = 10

10 = 10

We end up with the same thing on both sides, so x = 24 is confirmed.

The softball in the mitt is 4.9 inches in diameter. What is its volume? (Use 3.14 for )

Answers

Ur answer is 96 !!!!

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The volume of the softball is 61.6 cubic inches.

What is volume?

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Given that the diameter of the softball is 4.9 inches. Since the radius is half the diameter, therefore, the radius of the softball can be written as,

Radius = Diameter

           = 4.9 inches / 2

           = 2.45 inches

Now, the volume of the softball can be written as,

Volume of the softball = (4/3) × π × r³

                                  = (4/3) × π × (2.45 inches)³

                                  = 61.6 inches³

Hence, the volume of the softball is 61.6 cubic inches.

Question
Scientific notation is commonly used in science, technology, engineering, and math, which are known as
STEM fields. Assume there are approximately 2.6 million engineers in a country. If engineers make an
average salary of about $70,000 per year, how much income does this group generate collectively?

Write the answer in both scientific and standard notation.

Answers

Answer:

$182000000000

1.82 * 10^11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of engineers = 2.6 million

Average salary = $70,000

Collective income generated by group of engineers yearly :

This will be on average :

2,600,000 * 70,000 = $182000000000

In scientific notation :

$182000000000 = 182 * 1000000000

182 * 1000000000 = 182 * 10^9

182 = 1.82 * 100 = 1. 82 * 10^2

Hence,

$182000000000 = 1.82 * (10^2 * 10^9)

$182000000000 = 1.82 * 10^11

Mark packed 1-inch cubes into a box with a volume of 96 cubic inches. How many layers of 1-inch cubes would it take to fill the box?

Answers

Answer:

4 approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of layers of 1-inch cubes that Mark packed is determined by assuming that the larger box is also a cube.

let the N be the number of layers of 1-inch cubes that would it take to fill the box.

Since the larger box is also a cube

Therefore, 96 = N^3

N = (96)^(1/3)

N = 4√6

Therefore, there would be 4 layers of the 1-inch cube and some extra incomplete layer

A hiker leaves her camp in the morning. She walks 9 miles west then 10 miles north. Explain how you would find how far she has traveled from her camp.

Answers

Answer:

About 13.45 miles ( rounded )

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use the pythagorean theorem to solve this. ([tex]a^{2}[/tex]+ [tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex])

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] would be one length of that triangle, we'll use 9.

[tex]b^{2}[/tex] would be the other length of that triangle, we'll use 10.

So, now you have to square both of them.

[tex]9^{2}[/tex] = 81 ( 9 x 9 )  [tex]10^{2}[/tex] = 100 ( 10 x 10 )

Which you will get 81 and 100. Then you add those two numbers together.

100 + 81 = 181

Now that you have 181, you have to square root 181.

[tex]\sqrt{181}[/tex]

With that you should get 13.45 miles. (rounded)

In the diagram below of triangle UVW, X is a midpoint of UV and Y is a

what is the measure of ZXY?
V
X
Y
U
W

Answers

Given:

In triangle UVW, X is the midpoint of UV and Y is the midpoint of VW.

[tex]m\angle XYV=7x+21[/tex]

[tex]m\angle UWY=91-7x[/tex]

To find:

The measure of angle XYV.

Solution:

Since X is the midpoint of UV and Y is the midpoint of VW, therefore XY is the mid-segment of the triangle UVW and parallel to the base of the triangle, i.e., UW.

If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles are congruent and their measures are equal.

[tex]\angle XYV \cong \angle UWY[/tex]         [Corresponding angle]

[tex]m\angle XYV=m\angle UWY[/tex]

[tex]7x+21=91-7x[/tex]

We need to solve this equation for x.

[tex]7x+7x=91-21[/tex]

[tex]14x=70[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{70}{14}[/tex]

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Now,

[tex]m\angle XYV=7x+21[/tex]

[tex]m\angle XYV=7(5)+21[/tex]

[tex]m\angle XYV=35+21[/tex]

[tex]m\angle XYV=56[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of angle XYV is 56 degrees.

Find (-5) when f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 5

Answers

Answer:

Value of F(x) when x = -5 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation;

f(x) = x² + 2x + 5

f(x) = f(-5)

Find:

Value of F(x) when x = -5

Computation:

Given function;

f(x) = x² + 2x + 5

By putting value of x in given function

f(-5) = (-5)² + 2(-5) + 5

f(-5) = (-5 x -5) + 2(-5) + 5

f(-5) = (25) - 10 + 5

f(-5) = (25) - 5

f(-5) = 20

Value of F(x) when x = -5 is 20

now substitute the vale of y in equation second

y=-3x+5

x^2-14x+23=-3x+5

x^2-14x+3x=5-23

x^2-11x=-18

x^2-11x+18=0

x^2-(9+2)x+18=0

x^2-9x-2x+18=0

x(x-9)-2(x-9)=0

(x-2)(x-9)=0

either x-2=0                                        Or, x-9=0

x-2=0

x=0+2

x=2

x-9=0

x=0+9

therefore x=2,9

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(2, - 1 ) and (9, - 22 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x² - 14x + 23 → (1)

y = - 3x + 5 → (2)

Substitute y = x² - 14x + 23 into (2)

x² - 14x + 23 = - 3x + 5 ( subtract - 3x + 5 from both sides )

x² - 11x + 18 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 2)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

Substitute these values into (2) for corresponding values of y

x = 2 : y = - 3(2) + 5 = - 6 + 5 = - 1 ⇒ (2, - 1 )

x = 9 : y = - 3(9) + 5 = - 27 + 5 = - 22 ⇒ (9, - 22 )
