What is the value of x in the equation: 3x – 5x + 10 = 36

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

It started with x apples.

8 were given away.

Now there are x - 8 apples.

Two thirds of the remainder is (2/3)(x - 8).

That is equal to 12.

(2/3)(x - 8) = 12

x - 8 = 18

x = 26

There were originally 26 apples.

Answer:

26, if I understood the question correctly.

John has an amount of apples, gave 8 to her friend, and noticed that two thirds of the remainder is a dozen.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2/3 of the remainder is 12, then we can set this up as an algebraic equation to see what the remainder started with.

x*2/3=12

Now we can see that we need to divide the 2/3 to get the answer for what x is equal to.

[tex]x=12/(\frac{2}{3} )[/tex]

To divide fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal, (or the fraction upside down)

[tex]x=12*(\frac{3}{2})[/tex]

When we multiply 12 by 3/2, we get 36/2, and when we reduce, we get 18.

If the entire remainder is 18, then the original total would be 18 plus the 8 that John gave to her friend.

18+8=26

Kind of a strangely worded question, I hope I understood correctly

Answer:

The equation 1/8(x+16)=76/8 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.

The solution x=60 represents the total food bill.

Step-by-step explanation:

As in the question it is mentioned that there is eight group of friends and the total amount incurred is $76 that also involved $16

Now let us assume the food bill be x

So the equation would be

(x + 16) ÷ 8 = 76 ÷ 8

(x + 16) ÷ 8 = 9.5

x + 16 = 9.5 × 8

x = 76 -16

x = 60

So, the bill of food is 60

As per the given options, the above two statements should be selected

Answer:

Paint required will be 2.06gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The given dimensions are

Height - 8ft

Width - 7 [tex]\frac{11}{12}[/tex] = 7.9ft

Length - 9. 83ft

To calculate the the amount of paint required to paint the walls we need to find the area of the walls

wall 1  = height * width of room= 8 * 7.9 = 63.28[tex]ft^2[/tex]

wall 2 = height * length = 8*9.83 = 78.64 [tex]ft^2[/tex]

The total area of the 4 walls will be = 2*(63 .28+78.64)= 283.84[tex]ft^2[/tex]

ceiling area = 77.66[tex]ft^2[/tex]

total area to be painted = 283.84 + 77.66 = 361.50[tex]ft^2[/tex]

One gallon of paint covers 350 [tex]ft^2[/tex] of area

so 361.50 [tex]ft^2[/tex] area will be covered by = 361.5/350 = 1.03gallons of paint

also we need two coating so the paint required will be = 1.03 * 2 =2.06gallons

Answer:

f(x) = 8 - 1.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write a function that can be used to describe the x th term of the sequence

Mathematically, this can be calculated by looking at the numbers in the sequence

The difference between each successive term

is -1.5 ( 6.5-8, 3.5 -5)

So the formula for then x th term will be;

f(x) = 8 - 1.5x

where x refers to the number of the term , for example the 4th term

Answer:

-1.5x+9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.5(1)+9.5=8

-1.5(2)+9.5=6.5

-1.5(3)+9.5=5

Answer:

3.67

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation is 3x + 5= 16

do 16 - 5 to get 11

next do 11 divided by 3 to get 3.67

hope this helps :)

this answer may be incorrect because the answer was really 3.66666666667

Answer:

[tex]26M + 56D = 2278[/tex] ---- equation 1

[tex]M = 3D[/tex] ---- equation 2

A microscope costs S51 and a dissection kit costs S17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent microscope with M and Dissection kits with D

Cost:

[tex]M = 3D[/tex]

[tex]Total = 2278[/tex]

Required

Represent as an equation:

To do this, we represent the equation in terms of cost and quantity

In terms of cost, we have:

[tex]26M + 56D = 2278[/tex] ---- equation 1

and

[tex]M = 3D[/tex] ---- equation 2

Substitute 3D for M in equation 1

[tex]26*3D + 56D = 2278[/tex]

[tex]78D + 56D = 2278[/tex]

[tex]134D = 2278[/tex]

Divide both sides by 134

[tex]D = \frac{2278}{134}[/tex]

[tex]D = 17[/tex]

Substitute 17 for D in [tex]M = 3D[/tex]

[tex]M = 3 * 17[/tex]

[tex]M = 51[/tex]

Hence:

A microscope costs S51 and a dissection kit costs S17

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that could represent this situation is f(x ) = |42.67 – x| (Option C).

The process of quality control helps a producer to ensure that the correct standard is  maintained in the production of goods. It involves the testing of products to ensure that they conform to specifications.

Now we are told that factory wants to ensure that the discrepancy in diameter is not more than 0.002 mm. Since the discrepancy could be above or below the given value then it follows that the function that could represent this situation is f(x ) = |42.67 – x| (Option C).
