Translate the sentence into an equation.
Twice the difference of a number and 8 equals 5.
Use the variable b for the unknown number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it's simple it means

2×b-8=5

Answer 2

Answer:

b = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of b and 8 is b - 8 and twice this difference is

2(b - 8) = 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

2b - 16 = 5 ( add 16 to both sides )

2b = 21 ( divide both sides by 2 )

b = 10.5

The unknown number b is 10.5

Given trapezoid​ WXYZ, what is​ XY?

Answers

Answer:

XY = 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mid segment DE is half the sum of the parallel bases, that is

[tex]\frac{XY+WZ}{2}[/tex] = 20 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

XY + WZ = 40

XY + [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] XY = 40 ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )

2XY + 3XY = 80

5XY = 80 ( divide both sides by 5 )

XY = 16

Answer:

Pmt Amt     $12.50      $23.50      $64.00      $82.00

Fee             $0.25        $0.47        $1.28         $1.64

Step-by-step explanation:

The top line is the payment amount.

The bottom line is the 2% fee.

Let's do the middle columns first.

For any payment amount, the fee is 2%.

To find a percent of a number, change the percent to a decimal by moving the decimal point of the percent to places to the left, and multiply the decimal by the number.

2% as a decimal is 0.02

To find 2% of a number, multiply 0.02 by the number.

The second column has payment amount of $23.50

We need to find 2% of $23.50

2% of $23.50 = 0.02 × $23.50 = $0.47

The third column has payment amount of $64.00

We need to find 2% of $64.00

2% of $64.00 = 0.02 × $64.00 = $1.28

Now we do the first and 4th columns. Here we know the fee, and we are looking for the payment amount.

Let the amount be x.

The fee is 2% of x, so the fee is

0.02x

We set the expression equal to the actual fee and solve for x.

The first column has a fee of $0.25

0.02x = $0.25

x = $0.25/0.02

x = $12.50

The 4th column has a fee of $1.64

0.02x = $1.64

x = $1.64/0.02

x = $82

Answer:

Pmt Amt     $12.50      $23.50      $64.00      $82.00

Fee             $0.25        $0.47        $1.28         $1.64

What is the discriminant of the quadratic equation 9x^2+5x-9=0

Answers

Answer:

Δ = 349

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 ) , then the discriminant is

Δ = b² - 4ac

9x² + 5x - 9 = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = 9, b = 5 , c = - 9 , then

b² - 4ac

= 5² - (4 × 9 × - 9)

= 25 - (- 324)

= 25 + 324

= 349

2. Using the x and y values from both points (it doesn't matter which order you choose the points in as long as you keep their numbering consistent, i.e. point 1 = [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and point 2 = [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex]) plug into the formula.

L= Area/ W

L=500/10

L=50

To check this

A= L*W

500=50*10

What is the answer to n?

Answers

Answer:

n = 108

Step-by-step explanation:

The three medians of a triangle intersect at the same point inside the triangle.

The segment from a vertex to the point in the center is 2 times as long as the

other part of the median line.  So OC is 2 times KC.

KC =108    

OC = 2(108)

2n + 10 = 216

2n = 206

n = 108

In ΔABC , Value of [tex]n= 31[/tex] as per given condition of median of a triangle .

What is median of a triangle?

" Median of a triangle is defined as the line segment passing the vertex of a triangle and intersect at mid point of its opposite side.Intersecting point of three medians is known as Centroid."

Property used

Centroid divides the median in the ratio of [tex]2:1[/tex] from vertex side.

According to the question,

Given,

In ΔABC,

BL, AM, CK are the medians of a triangle ABC.

'O' represents the Centroid

[tex]KC = 108\\\\OC = 2n +10[/tex]

Ratio of [tex]KC : OC = 3: 2[/tex]

Substitute the value of KC and OC we get,

[tex]108 : (2n + 10) = 3:2\\\\\implies 3 (2n+ 10) = 2(108)\\\\\implies 6n + 30 = 216\\\\\implies 6n = 186\\\\\implies n = 31[/tex]

Hence, in ΔABC , Value of [tex]n= 31[/tex] as per given condition of median of a triangle .

what parts of a cell are most likely involved with inherited traits? Consider the following quote by Dr. Francis Schaeffer found in his How Should We then Live? and identify which option best explains his main point.A culture or an individual with a weak base can stand only when the pressure on it is not too great. As an illustration, let us think of a Roman bridge. The Romans built little humpbacked bridges over many of the streams of Europe. People and wagons went over these structures safely for centuries, for two millennia. But if people today drove heavily loaded trucks over these bridges, they would break. It is this way with the lives and value systems of individuals and cultures when they have nothing stronger to build on than their own limitedness, their own finiteness. They can stand when pressures are not too great, but when pressures mount, if then they do not have a sufficient base, they crash - just as a Roman bridge would cave in under the weight of a modern six-wheeled truck. Culture and freedoms of people are fragile. Without a sufficient base, when such pressures come only time is needed and often not a great deal of time before there is a collapse. A study was conducted that measured the total brain volume (TBV) (in) of patients that hadschizophrenia and patients that are considered normal. Table #9.3.5 contains the TBV of the normalpatients and table #9.3.6 contains the TBV of schizophrenia patients ("SOCR data oct2009." 2013).
