Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

5(x - 2) - 6 = 24

Step 2: Solve for x

Add 6 to both sides:                    5(x - 2) = 30Divide 5 on both sides:                x - 2 = 6Add 2 to both sides:                    x = 8

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                    5(8 - 2) - 6 = 24Subtract:                              5(6) - 6 = 24Multiply:                               30 - 6 = 24Subtract:                              24 = 24

Here we see that 24 does indeed equal 24.

∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.

(05.01)A picture is 5 inches wide and 8 inches tall: A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches. A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture. What will the area of the picture be after it is enlarged? 40 in2 250 in2 100 in2 81.9 in2

Answers

Answer:

B. 250 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the picture:

5 in and 8 in

Area of the picture:

5*8 = 40 in²

Scale factor = 2.5

Enlarged picture's area:

40*2.5*2.5 = 250 in² (scale factor affects both dimensions)

Option B is correct

The area of the picture after it is enlarged is 250 inches².

Given that,

The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches.

A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Here, the dimensions of the picture are 5 in and 8 in

Hence, the area of the picture is,

5 × 8 = 40 in²

Since, Scale factor = 2.5

So, the enlarged picture's area would be,

40 × 2.5 ×2.5

= 250 in²

Answer:

130°

Step-by-step explanation:

First step you need draw a line from X to O and line Z to O. Both of them are radius.

as we know, radius and tangent line are always perpendicular. so the degree is 90° each.

shape of XYZO is kite with total of 360°

so the arc XZ have

the points (-5,4)and (1,r) lie on a line with slope -1. Find the missing coordinates r.

Answers

Answer:

R has to be -2

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find a slope the formula is written as

Y2-Y1/ X2 -X1

We know X1 and X2 and Y1.

If we plug those in and put Y2 as the variable ”r”

You’ll get

[tex]\frac{r-4}{1+5}[/tex]

Now make that equal to -1 since thats the slope

If you solve the equation it should get you -2

Answer:

2201.8348 ; 3 ; x / (1 + 0.01)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Final amount (A) = 2400 ; rate (r) = 6% = 0.06, time, t = 1.5 years

Sum = principal = p

Using the relation :

A = p(1 + rt)

2400 = p(1 + 0.06(1.5))

2400 = p(1 + 0.09)

2400 = p(1.09)

p = 2400 / 1.09

p = 2201.8348

2.)

12000 amount to 15600 at 10% simple interest

A = p(1 + rt)

15600 = 12000(1 + 0.1t)

15600 = 12000 + 1200t

15600 - 12000 = 1200t

3600 = 1200t

t = 3600 / 1200

t = 3 years

3.)

A = p(1 + rt)

x = p(1 + x/100 * 1/x)

x = p(1 + x /100x)

x = p(1 + 1 / 100)

x = p(1 + 0.01)

x = p(1.01)

x / 1.01 = p

x / (1 + 0.01)

Answer:

2201.8348 ; 3 ; x / (1 + 0.01)

Traveling upstream (against the current) in a boat, you can travel 35 miles in 7 hours. It
takes half the time (3.5 hours) to travel the same distance downstream (with the
current). Find the speed of the current.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the current is 2.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems of Equations

Let's call:

B = velocity of the boat

C = velocity of the current

When traveling upstream, the current is against the boat thus the relative velocity is B-C.

The distance is the product of the velocity by the time. Since the boat takes 7 hours to travel 35 miles upstream, thus:

d=(B-C)*7=35

Dividing by 7:

B - C = 5       [1]

When traveling downstream, the current and the boat are collaborative and the relative velocity is B+C. The travel takes now 3.5 hours, thus:

d=(B+C)*3.5=35

Dividing by 3.5:

B + C = 10       [2]

Subtracting [2] - [1]:

2C = 5

C = 5/2 = 2.5

The speed of the current is 2.5 miles per hour

A letter is chosen at random from the letters of the word ASSASSINATION, then the probability that the letter chosen is a vowel is in the form of 6/2x+1, then find x.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

In the word "Assassination",

there are 13 letters in total and 6 vowels.

Probability of picking a vowel = 6/13.

Since 6/(2x + 1) = 6/13, 2x + 1 = 13, x = 6.
