What is the value of a if 3(a − 5) = 2(a +5)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

STEPS FOR SOLVING LINEAR EQUATION

3(a−5)=2(a+5)

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by a−5.

3a−15=2(a+5)

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by a+5.

3a−15=2a+10

Subtract 2a from both sides.

3a−15−2a=10

Combine 3a and −2a to get a.

a−15=10

Add 15 to both sides.

a=10+15

Add 10 and 15 to get 25.

a=25

Use the excerpt to answer the question. As Melanie climbed down into the 2 points rowboat, Gina scooted over on the bench to make room for her. "We have to pick up Jacob now," Gina said, handing Melanie one of the oars. “And we should hurry so we can be long gone before the patrol barge comes by." Gina hadn't told Mom where she was going. Her mother had been smoothing a washcloth over Brandon's forehead as Gina had headed out. When her mother had asked where she was off to, Gina had tossed out some vague explanation. It was better for Mom not to worry. She had enough to worry about these days. They all did. Which statement conveys the main idea of the excerpt?

Gina, Melanie, and Jacob are worried to leave Brandon when they take their rowboat out because they know his mother has been fussing over him a lot lately.

Gina and Melanie need to get Jacob before they are caught, and Gina doesn't want her mother to know where she is going so as not to worry her.

Answers

The data given are 

           melting point            density 

Zinc        419.53 oC              7.134

Nickel      1455oC                 8.912

Silver        961.78oC           10.501

Gold        1064.18oC          19.282

density is the mass per unit volume. Melting point is determined by the intermolecular forces between particles in the solids.

We have been asked to find which cube weighs the most 

density = mass/volume 

when volume is constant for all the metals, then density is directly proportional to mass. Therefore metal with highest density has the highest mass.

from the given metals, metal with highest density is Gold.

correct answer is Gold.

3x - 4y = -29
and
6x + 5y = -32

Answers

Answer:

x=-7,y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = - 29

and 6x + 5y = - 32

3x - 4y = - 29 (1)

6x + 5y = -32 (2)

equation (1) x 2

6x-8y = -58

equation (2) × 1

6x + 5y = - 32

Substracting → - 13y = -26

13y = 26.

26/ 13 ⇒ y =

⇒ yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy = 2

Putting y = 2 in equation (1), we have

3x - 4(2) = - 20

→ 3x = -29 +8

→3x = -21

→ X = -7

x = - 7

Find the least common denominator (LCD) 8/9 and 4/5

Answers

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

First we write the first 10 multiples of 9 (the first denominator) :

9,18,27,36,45,54,63,72,81,90

Now we write the first 10 multiples of 5 (the second denominator) :

5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50

As we can see 45 is the lowest number that appears in both list.

Therefore 45 is the LCD of 8/9 and 4/5

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

So since we are finding the LCD, we only look at the denominators, 9 and 5.

We can count until we find the denominator:

[tex]9,18,27,36,45\\5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45[/tex]

So the LCD would be 45.

Find the nth term of this quadratic sequence. 3,11,25,45

Answers

Since you know the sequence is quadratic, we can find constants a, b, and c such that the n-th term of the sequence (denoted by f(n)) is

[tex]f(n) = an^2 + bn + c[/tex]

We're given f(1) = 3, f(2) = 11, and f(3) = 25. (We have three unknowns, so we only need three conditions.) Solve for the constants:

[tex]\begin{cases}f(1) = a + b + c = 3 \\ f(2) = 4a + 2b + c = 11 \\ f(3) = 9a + 3n + c = 25 \end{cases} \implies a=3, b=-1, c=1[/tex]

Then the n-th term of the sequence is

[tex]f(n) = \boxed{3n^2 - n + 1}[/tex]

Construct the indicated confidence interval for the population mean using the​ t-distribution. Assume the population is normally distributed.
picture of question below

Answers

Using the t-distribution, it is found that the confidence interval is (14.2, 14.8).

What is a t-distribution confidence interval?

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.t is the critical value.n is the sample size.s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 18 - 1 = 17 df, is t = 2.1098.

The other parameters are given by:

[tex]\overline{x} = 14.5, s = 0.68, n = 18[/tex].

Hence, the bounds of the interval are given by:

[tex]\overline{x} - t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 14.5 - 2.1098\frac{0.68}{\sqrt{18}} = 14.2[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x} + t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 14.5 + 2.1098\frac{0.68}{\sqrt{18}} = 14.8[/tex]

The confidence interval is (14.2, 14.8).

The Fibonacci sequence can be seen in the formation and split of tree branches.

Each of the new stems follows the same branching pattern.

Endeye needs to split 1/5 of the dinner left over from last week to feed her 3 siblings. What fraction of the original dinner will each sibling have to eat tonight?

Answers

Answer:

They each had 1/20 of the original meal

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, there are 4 people. Her siblings, and herself. She is splitting the 1/5 leftover to feed them. To do this, we simply take 1/5 and put it into a fraction to get 0.2. Next, we can put 0.2 / 4 into a calculator to get how much each person can get.

0.2 / 4 = 0.05.

Now, we need to turn it into a fraction to find out how much they had in fraction form of the original.

0.05 = 1/20

They each had 1/20 of the original meal

He stood for a moment, his lean, drawn face haggard in the light of the two hurtling moons.He looked hopelessly across the dark spaceport. It was a large one, for this ancient town of Syrtis was the main port of Mars. The forked light of the flying moons showed many ships docked on the tarmaca big liner, several freighters, a small, shining cruiser and other small craft. And for lack of one of those ships, his hopes were ruined!A squat, brawny figure in shapeless space-jacket came to Kenniston's side. It was Holk Or, the Jovian who had been waiting for him."What luck?" asked the Jovian in a rumbling whisper."It's hopeless," Kenniston answered heavily. "There isn't a small cruiser to be had at any price. The meteor-miners buy up all small ships here.""The devil!" muttered Holk Or, dismayed. "What are we going to do? Go on to Earth and get a cruiser there?""We can't do that," Kenniston answered. "You know we've got to get back to that asteroid within two weeks. We've got to get a ship here."Desperation made Kenniston's voice taut. His lean, hard face was bleak with knowledge of disastrous failure.The big Jovian scratched his head. In the shifting moonlight his battered green face expressed ignorant perplexity as he stared across the busy spaceport."That shiny little cruiser there would be just the thing," Holk Or muttered, looking at the gleaming, torpedo-shaped craft nearby. "It would hold all the stuff we've got to take; and with robot controls we two could run it.""We haven't a chance to get that craft," Kenniston told him. "I found out that it's under charter to a bunch of rich Earth youngsters who came out here in it for a pleasure cruise. A girl named Loring, heiress to Loring Radium, is the head of the party."The Jovian swore. "Just the ship we need, and a lot of spoiled kids are using it for thrill-hunting!"Kenniston had an idea. "It might be," he said slowly, "that they're tired of the cruise by this time and would sell us the craft. I think I'll go up to the Terra Hotel and see this Loring girl.""Sure, let's try it anyway," Holk Or agreed.With the Jovian clumping along beside him, Kenniston made his way from the spaceport across the ancient Martian city.Read the following line from the text:A girl named Loring, heiress to Loring Radium, is the head of the party.What can be inferred about Loring from this line?
