What equation represents three less than 1/5 of a number is 28

Answers

Answer 1

the answer is x÷5-3 = 28

Answer 2

Answer:

(28+3)×5=x

Step-by-step explanation:

28+3= [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] of x

31 is 1/5 of x

x is 155

Checking:

155÷5-3=28

31-3=28

Heather and Carlos each improved their yards by planting grass sod and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store. Heather spent $171 on 14ft^2 of grass sod and 5 geraniums. Carlos spent $117 on 6ft^2 of grass sod and 7 geraniums. Find the cost of one ft^2 of grass sod and the cost of one geranium.

Answers

Answer:

The cost of one ft^2 of grass sod = $9

the cost of one geranium= $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a cost equation for each one:

Heather : 14x+5y =171

Carlos: 6x+7y=117

Where x is the cost of one ft^2 of grass sod and y is the cost of one geranium.

Multiplying Heather's equation by 7, Carlos' equation by 5, and subtracting Carlos' cost to Heather's cost:

98x+35y=1,197

-

30x+35y=585

____________

68x=612

Solving for x:

x = 612/68

x=$9 per ft2

Replacing x=9 on any equation:

6(9)+7y=117

54+7y=117

7y=117-54

7y=63

y=63/7

y=$9

Answers

Answer:

Rounding x = 5.52

Step-by-step explanation:

2.1x - 3.6 = 8

Add 3.6 to each side

2.1x - 3.6+3.6 = 8+3.6

2.1x = 11.6

Divide each side by 2.1

2.1x/2.1 = 11.6/2.1

Find the value of x for which the graph of y = 3x^2 - 8x + 7 achieves its minimum y-value.​

Answers

Answer:

The y value achieves its minimum at x = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the graph of y to be 3x² - 8x + 7, to get the value of x for which the graph function achieves its minimum y value, we need to find its turning point first.

At the turning point, dy/dx = 0

Given y = 3x² - 8x + 7

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x-8\\ at\ turning\ point\ 6x-8 = 0[/tex]

[tex]6x = 8\\x = \frac{8}{6}\\ x =\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

IThe first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if

72, 24, 8, ...
Find the 8th term.

Answers

Answer: the eight term is 8/243

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term in this geometric sequence is equal to the previous term, divided by 3.

72,24, 8

a = 72, r = 1/3

a = first term, r is common ratio

tn = ar^n-1

t8 = 72÷ 3^8–1

t8 = 72÷ 3^7

= 72/ 3^7

= 8/243

A committee consisting of 2 faculty members and 4 students is to be formed. Every committee position has the same duties and voting rights. There are 10 faculty members and 11 students eligible to serve on the committee. In how many ways can the committee be formed?

Answers

Answer:

14,850 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the order does not matter, the number of possible committees is given by the product of the combination of picking 2 out of 10 faculty members and the combination of picking 4 out of 11 students:

[tex]n= \frac{10!}{(10-2)!2!}* \frac{11!}{(11-4)!4!}\\n=\frac{10*9}{2}*\frac{11*10*9*8}{4*3*2*1}\\n=14,850[/tex]

What is one value that is a solution t
o 4x+ .8>3.2 b
ut not -6 <-5x - 1

Answers

Answer:

x = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

What this question asks us is that what value of x solves the first inequality but does not work for the second

Let’s solve the first inequality;

4x > 3.2-0.8

4x > 2.4

x > 2.4/4

x > 0.6

Now all values of x which is greater than 0.6 is a solution to the first inequality

Now to the second, we have;

-6 > -5x -1

Using the range of values from the first inequality;

if we say x = 0.8

Then

-6 > -5(0.8) -1

-6 > -4-1

-6 > -5

But this is not right in the real sense as actually

-5 > -6

So we can confirm that 0.8 is a solution that works for the first inequality but doesn’t work for the second

If u subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2, u get 1/8, what is the number. please help whoever answers correctly I will mark them brainiest, rate them, and thanks to them.

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Subtract 1/2 from the unknown number: x - 1/2

Multiply the result by 1/2: 1/2(x - 1/2)

You get 1/8: 1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Now we solve the equation for x.

1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Multiply both sides by 2.

2 * 1/2(x - 1/2) = 2 * 1/8

x - 1/2 = 1/4

Multiply both sides by 4

4x - 4 * 1/2 = 4 * 1/4

4x - 2 = 1

Add 2 to both sides.

4x = 3

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 3/4

The formula for the area of a triangle is , where b is the length of the base and h is the height.

Find the height of a triangle that has an area of 30 square units and a base measuring 12 units.

3 units
5 units
8 units
9 units

Answers

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

30 = 1/2 (12)h

Multiply

30 = 6h

Divide each side by 6

30/6 = 6h/6

5 = h

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time please supply the formula, which was apparently given in this question:

A = (1/2)(base)(height)

Here, A = 30 units^2 = (1/2)(12 units)(height), or

                30 units^2 = (6 units)(height)

Solving for (height), we get

                 30 units^2

(height) = ------------------ = 5 units

                   6 units

The height is 5 units

What is the solution to the equation Negative (5 minus (a + 1)) = 9 minus (5 minus (2a minus 3))? a = –5 a = –3 a = 3 a = 5

Answers

Answer:

a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

negative (5 minus (a + 1)) = 9 minus (5 minus (2a minus 3)) can be expressed mathematically as follows.

- (5 - (a + 1)) = 9 - (5 - (2a - 3))

using the principle of PEMDAS, all the parenthesis values are first solved

- (5 - a - 1) = 9 - (5 - 2a + 3)

-5 + a + 1 = 9 - 5 + 2a - 3

-5 + 1 - 9 + 5 + 3 = 2a - a

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point. y= 1/2x - 8; (-6,-17)

Answers

Answer:

y = x/2 -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel, their slopes are equal

For the first line, we have

y = 0.5x -8

so comparing this with the standard form y = mx + c

Our m is the slope which is 0.5 here

kindly recall that 1/2 is same as 0.5

so the slope of the line we want to form also is 0.5

Now, we use the point slope form to find the equation of this new line

Mathematically that would be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

So;

y-(-17) = 0.5(x-(-6)

y + 17 = 0.5(x + 6)

y + 17 = 0.5x + 3

y = 0.5x + 3-17

y = 0.5x -14

or y = x/2 -14

[tex]2x - 8 < 12,\\2x < 20,\\x < 10\\\\Conclusion - Option C[/tex]

As you can tell, for the first step we added 8 on either side of the inequality sign, resulting with the cancelation of 8, and the addition of 8 and 20. Dividing 2 on either side of this simplified inequality, we resulted in x < 10. Note that if we were to divide by a negative value, this less than sign would be taken as a greater than sign ( same rule applies for the multiplication of a negative number ).
