X-36+12x=224 due 15 min ago

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting equation: x - 36 + 12x = 224

Reorder: 12x + x (as there is no negative sign in front of the x) - 36 = 224

Add common terms: 13x - 36 = 224

Subtract (in this case add) common term to isolate variable: 13x + 36 = 224 + 36

Isolate variable by dividing both sides by 13: 13x = 260

Solve: x = 20

An alloy weighing 40 lbs. is 10% tin. The alloy was made by mixing a 15% tin alloy and a 8% tin alloy. How many pounds of each alloy (to the nearest tenth) were used to make the 10% alloy?lbs. of the 15% alloy and lbs. of the 8% alloy.

Answers

Let the weight of 15% tin be  x.

So the weight of the 8% tin will be:  (40 - x), since the total weight is 40 lbs


Using the mixture formula:

w1*p1 + w2*p2 = w*p

Where w1 = weight of the first percentage, p1 = First Percentage

w2 = weight of the second percentage, p2 = Second Percentage

w = Final weight, p1 = Final Percentage

0.15*x + 0.08(40 - x) = 40*0.1

0.15x + 3.2 - 0.08x = 4

0.15x - 0.08x = 4 - 3.2

0.07x = 0.8

x = 0.8/0.07

x ≈ 11.429

Recall the 15% was made with x, which is ≈   11.429

Recall the 8% was made with (40-x) ≈  (40 - 11.429) ≈ 28.571

So the 10% tin of the 40 lbs was made with ≈11.4 lbs of the 15% tin and  ≈28.6 lbs of the 8% tin
x=15% alloy
y=8% alloy
x+y=40
y=40-x
0.15x+0.08y=40*0.10
0.15x+0.08(40-x)=40*0.1
times 100 both sides for easy
15x+8(40-x)=400
15x+320-8x=400
7x+320=400
minus 320 from both sides
7x=80
divide both sides by 7
x=80/7
x+y=40
80/7+y=280/7
y=200/7

Which equation has exactly one solution?A. 4x^(2) - 12x - 9 = 0
B. 4x^(2) + 12x + 9 = 0
C. 4x^(2) - 6x - 9 = 0
C. 4x^(2) + 6x + 9 = 0

(Please show how you get the answer)

Answers

The equation 4x² + 12x + 9 = 0 has exactly one solution. The correct answer would be an option (C).

What is a quadratic function?

The quadratic function is defined as a function containing the highest power of a variable is two.

The solutions to a quadratic equation are found using the quadratic formula, which is:

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

As per option (C),

4x² + 12x + 9 = 0

Compare the given function to the standard quadratic function f(x) = ax² + b x + c.

We get a = 4, b = 12, and c = 9.

The discriminant of the equation,

b² - 4ac = (12)² - 4×4(9) = 144 - 144 = 0

Since the discriminant is zero, this means the equation has only one solution.

Therefore, the equation 4x² + 12x + 9 = 0 has exactly one solution.

Hence, the correct answer would be option (C).

I would answer this by using the quadratic formula to figure out which equation only has one solution.
quadratic formula: (-b(+or-)√(b^2-(4ac)))/2a.
You find that the equation 4x²+12x+9=0 only has the root of x=-1.5.

Since the solution is where the parabola crosses the x-axis, you can also figure out which equation has only one solution by whether or not the axis of symmetry lands is a solution or not.  If the axis of symmetry is a solution, the function only has one solution (that being the vertex).  If the axis of symmetry is not a solution, the function has to have either two or no roots.  You can find the axis of symmetry by using the equation x=-b/2a.  Using that equation you can find that the equation 4x²+12x+9 has the axis of symmetry being at x=-1.5 which means that the vertex is (-1.5,0).  Since the equation 4x²+12x+9 has its vertex at (-1.5,0) and the vertex is the lowest or highest point of the function, that function only has one x-intercept meaning it only has 1 solution.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

When the equation a – bx = cx + d is solved for x, the result is x = .Use the general solution to solve 5 – 6x = 8x + 17.

Answers

The value of x in the equation a – bx = cx + d is = a - d / c + b

The value of x in the equation  5 – 6x = 8x + 17 is - 6 / 7

a - bx = cx + d

add bx to both sides of the equation

a - bx + bx = cx + bx + d

a = cx + bx + d

subtract d form both sides of the equation

a - d = cx + bx + d - d

a - d = cx + bx

Distributive law:

using distributive law on the right side of the equation

a - d = x (c + b)

divide both sides by (c + b)

Therefore,

x = a - d / c + b

Let's use the same method to solve 5 – 6x = 8x + 17

5 – 6x = 8x + 17

add 6x to both sides

5 – 6x  + 6x= 8x + 6x + 17

5 = 14x + 17

subtract 17 from both sides

5 - 17 = 14x + 17 - 17

-12 = 14x

divide both sides by 14

x = -12 / 14

x = - 6 / 7
