ax-b=12.5 for x

Answers

Answer:

x=(12.5+b)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

ax-b=12.5

ax=12.5+b

x=(12.5+b)/a

The solution for the equation ax - b = 12.5 for x is:

x = (12.5 + b) / a

We have,

To solve the equation ax - b = 12.5 for x, follow these steps:

- Add b to both sides of the equation:

ax - b + b = 12.5 + b

This simplifies to:

ax = 12.5 + b

- Divide both sides of the equation by "a":

(ax) / a = (12.5 + b) / a

Simplify:

x = (12.5 + b) / a

Thus,

The solution for the equation ax - b = 12.5 for x is:

x = (12.5 + b) / a

Answers

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The line (y-1)=(2/3)(x+1) contains point (a,-3)

=> (-3-1) = (⅔)(a+1)

-4 = (⅔)(a+1(

(a+1)= -4 ÷ ⅔

a + 1 = -4 × 3/2

a+ 1 = -6

a = -6-1

a = -7

The value of 'a' will be;

⇒ a = - 7.

What is substitution method?

To find the value of any one of the variables from one equation in terms of the other variable is called the substitution method.

Given that;

The equation of line is,

⇒ (y - 1) = (2/3) (x + 1)

And, The point on the line = (a, - 3)

Now,

Since, The point on the line = (a, - 3)

Hence, It satisfy the equation of line.

Substitute x = a and y = - 3, we get;

⇒ (y - 1) = (2/3) (x + 1)

⇒ (- 3 - 1) = (2/3) (a + 1)

⇒ - 4 × 3 = 2a + 2

⇒ - 12 - 2 = 2a

⇒ 2a = - 14

⇒ a = - 7

Thus, The value of a = - 7

An ant walk about 3 inches per second how many miles per day could an ant travel if it walked without a break?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

45/11 miles per day or ~4.091 miles per day

Step-by-step explanation:

3 inches per second

24 hours in a day

60 minutes in 1 hour

60 seconds in 1 minute

Amount of inches per minute: 3 x 60 = 180 inches

Amount of inches per hour: 180 x 60 = 10,800 inches

Amount of inches per day 10,800 x 24 = 259,200 inches

To find the number of feet that 259,200 inches is, divide by 12.

259,200/12 = 21,600 feet per day

To find the number of miles that 21,600 feet is, divide by 5280.

21,600/5280 = 45/11 = 4.09090909091 = ~ 4.091

So, an ant could walk 45/11 miles per day or ~4.091 miles per day if it walked without taking a break.

45/11 miles per day or ~4.091 miles per day

Answer:

180° Celsius is equal to approximately 356° Fahrenheit

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps.

The value of 180 degree Celcius in Fahrenheit is 356.

What is unit conversion?

Multiplication or division by a numerical factor, selection of the correct number of significant figures, and unit conversion are all steps in a multi-step procedure.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Martha has a French cookie recipe that calls for baking the cookies for 14 to 18 minutes at 180∘C.

The temperature in Fahrenheit will be calculated as,

F = 1.8C + 32

F = ( 1.8 x 180 ) +32

F = 356

Therefore, the value of 180 degree Celcius in Fahrenheit is 356.

Rachel’s free-throw average for basketball is 60%. How many times do you think she will make a free-throw in her next 50 tries?

Answers

Answer:

Rachel will make 30 free-throws!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

I came up with this solution with some easy mental math! If you weren't aware, 60% of 50 is a whole number! Meaning that 60% of 50 is 30. You could even double 50 to make it 100, everyone knows that dealing with percentages with the number 100 make them a whole lot easier!

Back to what I was saying, if you used 100, you would also have to take 60% of 100, which is 60. And then have to divide 60 by 2 because you doubled the 50! Giving you 30 free-throws, which is the correct answer!

Answers

Patterns are set of rules that guide the creation of a dataset. The observation from the first three designs are as follows:

The pattern is that the number of tiles increases as the design number increasesThe expressions for the number of tiles are [tex]n^2 + 2(n + 2)[/tex] and [tex]n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex]The expression can be proved to be equivalent using graph technology The points on the curve make sense in this scenario because all values are positiveThe pattern is quadratic.The largest design number that can enter an empty 10 by 12 ft sign is design number 8

The pattern

The first three design show that, as the design number increases (i.e. 1, 2, 3), the number of tiles used also increases (i.e. 7, 12, 19)

The expressions for the number of tiles

The design number and the number of tiles is represented as follows

[tex]1 \to 7[/tex]

[tex]2 \to 12[/tex]

[tex]3 \to 19[/tex]

From the designs, we observe that some tiles are at the middle, while other tiles are at the sides.

Design 1 has 1 tile at the center and 6 tiles at either sides.

So, we have:

[tex]1 \to 1 + 6[/tex]

[tex]2 \to 4 + 8[/tex]

[tex]3 \to 9 + 10[/tex]

Expand

[tex]1 \to 1^2 + 6 \to 1^2 + 2 \times 3 \to 1^2 + 2 \times (1 + 2)[/tex]

[tex]2 \to 2^2 + 8 \to 2^2 + 2 \times 4 \to 2^2 + 2 \times (2 + 2)[/tex]

[tex]3 \to 3^2 + 10 \to 3^2 + 2 \times 5 \to 3^2 + 2 \times (3 + 2)[/tex]

Notice the pattern,

The number of tiles in design n will be:

[tex]Tiles = n^2 + 2 \times (n + 2)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]Tiles = n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex]

Hence, the expressions for number of tiles in design n are:

[tex]n^2 + 2(n + 2)[/tex] and [tex]n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex]

Technology to prove that both expressions are equivalent

To prove that [tex]n^2 + 2(n + 2)[/tex] and [tex]n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex] are equivalent using technology, the graphs of [tex]n^2 + 2(n + 2)[/tex] and [tex]n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex] can be plotted and then compared

The table and graph for the first 6 designs

The table entry for the first 6 designs is calculated as follows:

[tex]n = 1\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 1^2 + 2 \times 1 + 4 = 7[/tex]        

[tex]n = 2\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 2^2 + 2 \times 2 + 4 = 12[/tex]        

[tex]n = 3\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 3^2 + 2 \times 3 + 4 = 19[/tex]        

[tex]n = 4\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 4^2 + 2 \times 4 + 4 = 28[/tex]        

[tex]n = 5\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 5^2 + 2 \times 5 + 4 = 39[/tex]        

[tex]n = 6\ \ \ \ \ Tiles = 6^2 + 2 \times 6 + 4 = 52[/tex]        

So, we have:

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}Design & {Tiles} & {1} & {7} & {2} & {12} & 3 & {19} & {4} & {28} & {5} & {39}& {6} & {52} \ \end{array}[/tex]

See attachment for the graph of the above table

All the points on the curve make sense in this scenario because all values are positive.

The pattern type

We have:

[tex]Tiles = n^2 + 2n + 4[/tex]

When an equation has a degree of 2, the equation is quadratic.

Hence, the pattern is quadratic.

The largest design that an empty sign of 10ft by 12ft can contain.

From the first three designs:

The number of tiles on a complete row and column are always the same.

Design 1 has 3 tiles in its complete row and column

Design 2 has 4 tiles in its complete row and column

Design 3 has 5 tiles in its complete row and column

The relationship between the design number (d) and the number of complete tiles (t) is:

[tex]d = t - 2[/tex]

For the 10ft by 12ft empty sign

[tex]t = 10[/tex] because [tex]10 < 12[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]d = t - 2[/tex]

[tex]d = 10 - 2[/tex]

[tex]d = 8[/tex]

Hence, the largest design number is design 8

You can write it in other way as show in step by step

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

First of all find the determinate.

Cross multiply the number 11 ✖ -1

detA = 11 × -1

= -11 ---eq1

And now cross multiply the number 3 ✖ - 5

detA = 3 × -5

= -15 ---eq2

Now we use eq 1 and 2

detA = (-11)-(-15)

Minus cancels minus

So it becomes

detA = -11 + 15

= 4

Step 2:

We find adjacent of the given.

[11 -5]

adjA= [ ]

[3 -1 ]

We change the places. The number 11 goes to in place of -1. -1 goes in place of 11.

And we change the signs of -5 and 3. -5 becomes 5 and 3 becomes -3.

We get

[-1 5]

adjA = [ ]

[-3 11]

Step 3:

Now we use the following formula

1

A^-1 = -------- adjA

detA

1 [-1 5]

A^-1 = ------- [ ]

4 [-3 11]

And now multiply

1

---- with each number of adjA.

And than subtract..

And you will get the inverse matrix
