What is the value of x in the equation –2.4x = 8.4?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

−2.4x=8.4

Divide both sides by −2.4.

x= 8.4/-2.4

Expand 8.4/-2.4 by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

x= 84/-24

Reduce the fraction 84/-24 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 12.

x= −7/2

​-7/2 = -3.5

Answer 2

Answer:

-3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there?

given such a question,

You have to carry out division on of both RHS and LHS.

Take -2.4 and divide through -2.4{LHS} and 8.4{RHS}.

You are then remained with 1(x) in LHS and -3.5 in RHS

-2.4x /(-2.4)= {8.4}/(-2.4)

= -3.5

I hope this helps. Have a nice studies

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

17) In parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180)

⇒∠A +  ∠D = 180

5x + 30 + x = 180  

5x +x + 30 = 180    {Combine like terms}

     6x + 30 = 180 {Now, subtract 30 from both sides}

6x + 30 - 30 = 180 - 30

             6x  = 150

Now divide both sides by 6

              x = 150/6

              x = 25

∠A = 5x + 30

     = 5*25 + 30

     = 125 + 30

     = 155

In parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent.

∠C = ∠A

∠C = 155°

18)In parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180)

⇒∠A +  ∠D = 180

3x + 4 + x = 180  

3x +x + 4 = 180    {Combine like terms}

     4x + 4 = 180 {Now, subtract 4 from both sides}

4x + 4 - 4 = 180 - 4

             4x  = 176

Now divide both sides by 4

              x = 176/4

x =44

19) In parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180)

⇒∠GAC +  ∠ACF = 180

125 + ∠ACF  = 180  

       Now, subtract 125 from both sides

∠ACF = 180 - 125

∠ACF = 55

21) In parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180)

∠CFG + ∠ACF = 180

2w +30 + w + 15 = 180

2w +w + 30+ 15 = 180

          3w + 45   = 180

                      3w  = 180 - 45

                      3w = 135

                        w = 135/3

w = 45

∠ACF = w + 15

           = 45 + 15

ACF =  60

21) In parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent.

GF = AC

4x - 14 = 2x + 2

    2x    = 16

          x = 16/2

How do you convert 3 1/3 yards to inches? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.

Answers

Since, there are 36 inches in 1 yard, multiply 3 1/3 by 36

So, 3 1/3 yards = 120 inches

Answer:

120 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 3 1/3 yards to inches, you first need to figure out how many inches are in one yard. 1 yard=36 inches.

After this, you would turn your mixed fraction into an improper fraction and then multiply by 36 inches. It would look like this:

10/3 * 36/1

Here, you would cancel out the common factors by factoring 36 by 3.

12*3=36 ----> 10/3 * [tex]\frac{3(12)}{1}[/tex] ----->

Lastly, multiply 10 by 12 and your answer would be 120 inches.

Adrian is 3 times as old as Anisah now. 4 years ago,Adrian was 28 years older than Anisah . How old will Anisah be in years' time?

Answers

Lets have Anisah be x right now.

4 years ago, Adrian was (x-4) + 28 = x+24
Right now, Adrian is 3x.

Knowing those two pieces of information, we can say that x+24 is equal to 3x-4. (This is because Adrian is 3x right now, and for 4 years ago, you subtract 4.)

x+24=3x-4
24=2x-4
28=2x
x=14

Right now Anisah is 14, and in 4 years he will be 14+4 = 18.

Use the compound interest formulas A = P1+
and A = Pert to solve.
Suppose that you have $11,000 to invest. Which investment yields the greater return over 9 years: 7.5% compounded
continuously or 7.6% compounded semiannually?

Answers

Answer:

7.5% compounded continuously yields the greatest return after 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounded interest = P(1+r/n)^(nt), where P is the principle, r is the rate of interest, n is the number of times compounded annually, and t is the time of the investment.

7.6% compounded semiannually:

I = 11000(1+0.076/2)^(2*9) --> 11000(1.038)^18 ~ $21525.09

7.5% compounded continuously:

Since it is compounded continuously, we use the mathematical constant e.

I = 11000e = $29901.01

A boat, which moves at 29 miles per hour in water without a current , goes 825 miles upstream and 825 miles back again in 58 hours. Find the speed of the current to the nearest the the place.

Answers

Answer:

  4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Travel time is proportional to distance and inversely proportional to speed. If c represents the speed of the current in miles per hour, an equation for the total trip time is ...

  825/(29 -c) +825/(29 +c) = 58 . . . . . . hours travel time

  825(29 +c) +825(29 -c) = 58(29 -c)(29 +c)

  58c² -928 = 0 . . . . . . . rearrange to standard form

  58(c -4)(c +4) = 0 . . . . factor

Values of c that satisfy this equation are 4 and -4. For the purpose here, we'll choose the positive solution.

The speed of the current is 4 miles per hour.

a bicycle has a listed price of 749.95 before tax. if the sales tax rate is 9.5%, find the total cost of the bicye with sales tax included​

Answers

Answer:

  821.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax is added to the listed price in order to find the total cost. The tax is computed by multiplying the listed price by the tax rate.

  tax = 749.95 × 0.095 = 71.25 . . . . . (rounded up from 74.24525)

  total cost = listed price + tax = 749.95 +71.25 = 821.20

The total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included is 821.20.

Answer:

$821.20 (nearest cent)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sales tax of 9.5% is applied,
the final cost of the bicycle = 100% + 9.5% = 109.5% of its listed price

Convert 109.5% into a decimal:

109.5% = 109.5/100 = 1.095

So 109.5% of $749.95 = 1.095 × 749.95

                                     = $821.20 (nearest cent)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, break this down into minutes. 1 1/4 hours is 75 minutes. 75 divided by 5 is 15. he spends 15 minutes taking a shower. 75 divided by 3 is 25. he spends 25 minutes eating breakfast. 25 plus 15 is 40. he spends 40 minutes to shower and eat breakfast.

A right triangle has side lengths that are consecutive integers and a perimeter of 12 feet. What are the
angles of the triangle?
А. 30°, 60° and 90°
B. 33.47°, 56.53° and 90°
C. 36.87°, 53.13° and 90°
D. 40.16°, 49.84° and 90°

Answers

Answer:

option c

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the right angled triangle = x , (x +1) , (x +2)

Perimeter = 12 feet

x + x +1 + x + 2 = 12

x +x + x + 1+2 = 12

Combine like terms

3x+  3 = 12

Subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 12- 3

3x = 9

Divide both sides by 3

x = 9/3

x = 3

x + 1 = 3 + 1 = 4

x + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5

The sides of the triangle are 3 , 4 ,5

The biggest side will be the hypotenuse.

So, hypotenuse = 5 ft. other legs are 3 and 4

[tex]\text {Sin \ $\theta$ = $\dfrac{opposite \ side \ of \ \theta}{hypotenuse}$ } \\\\\\ = \dfrac{4}{5}\\\\\\Sin \ \theta = 0.8\\\\\theta = Sin^{-1} \ 0.8\\\\\theta = 53.13 \ ^\circ[/tex]

another angle = 180 - [ 90 + 53.13]

                        = 180 - 143.13

                         = 36.87°
