3. Explain each step in your solution method. Why is your method valid?
Pls Help. 100 points
Answers
3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
Step 1, apply distributive method.
9x + 18 + 3x = 1
Step 2, simplify the following
12x + 18 = 1
Step 3, Change side
12x = -17
Final answer
x = -17/12
The error/mistake was in step 2 where [ 9x +3x = 12x ]
Recheck the answer
3 ( 3x + 6 + x ) = 1
3 ( 3(-17/12) + 6 + -17/12 ) = 1
1 = 1
Hence proved our solution is correct.
Answer:
Question 1
The error is in step 2. They have subtracted [tex]3x[/tex] from the left side of the equation, yet only subtracted 3 from the right side.
Questions 2 & 3
Solve:
[tex]3(3x + 6 + x) = 1[/tex]
Apply the distributive law [tex]a(b + c) = ab + ac[/tex] :
[tex]\implies 9x + 18 + 3x = 1[/tex]
Collect and combine like terms:
[tex]\implies 9x + 3x+ 18 = 1[/tex]
[tex]\implies 12x + 18 = 1[/tex]
Subtract 18 from both sides:
[tex]\implies 12x + 18 - 18 = 1 - 18[/tex]
[tex]\implies 12x = -17[/tex]
Divide both sides by 12:
[tex]\implies \dfrac{12x}{12}=-\dfrac{17}{12}[/tex]
[tex]\implies x=-\dfrac{17}{12}[/tex]

Find the value of x x, y y, and z z in the parallelogram below.
Answers
In a parallelogram, angles that are opposite each other (as in, in opposite corners) are congruent. Angles that are next to each other (as in, on the same side) are supplementary.
It is very easy to solve for the value of y first because the expression is across from a known angle. Because these angles are opposite each other, they are congruent.
83 = 5y - 7
90 = 5y
y = 18
We can also use the same 83 degree angle to solve for the other two variables. 83 is on the same side as both of the remaining expressions, separately. As such 83 and another angle on the same side will add up to 180.
83 + -5x - 3 = 180
80 - 5x = 180
-5x = 100
x = -20
83 + z - 7 = 180
90 + z = 180
z = 90

Answer:
91.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways to find the a.pex angle of an isosceles triangle with all side lengths given. One of them is using the Law of Cosines:
c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)
Solving for the angle C, we find ...
C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))
__
Here, we have a=b=14 and c=20. The angle is ...
C = arccos((14² +14² -20²)/(2·14·14)) = arccos(-8/392)
C ≈ 91.16938°
The interior angle at the peak of the roof is about 91.2°.

[tex]\sf 3.78\times 10^{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Scientific notation: [tex]\sf a \times 10^b[/tex]
(where [tex]\sf 1 \leq |a| < 10[/tex] and b is the power of 10 required so that the notation is equivalent to the original number)
Move the decimal point back 13 places then multiply by [tex]\sf 10^{13}[/tex]:
[tex]\sf 11,600,000,000,000 = 1.16 \times 10^{13}[/tex]
Move the decimal point back 8 places then multiply by [tex]\sf 10^{8}[/tex]:
[tex]\sf 307,000,000=3.07 \times 10^{8}[/tex]
Divide the total debt by the population to calculate how much each person would owe if the debt was divided equally among everyone in the US:

Apply exponent rule [tex]\dfrac{a^b}{a^c}=a^{b-c}[/tex]
[tex]\sf \dfrac{1.16}{3.07} \times \dfrac{10^{13}}{10^{8}}=0.3778501629... \times 10^{13-8}[/tex]
[tex]\sf =0.378\times 10^{5}[/tex]

you want to get the bottom numbers the same by multiplying:)
5x4= 20 , 4x5= 20
since you multiplied the fraction with the denominator 5 by 4 , you also multiply the number on top by 4
3x4= 12
and since the other fraction with the denominator 4 was multiplied by 5 , you multiply the number on top by 5
1x5= 5
now you add those 2 numbers up
5+12= 17
you put that number on top of the fraction: 17
and take the number you ————
got from the first step and
put it on the bottom: 20

Therefore, none will be left
Answer:
No , there will not be any piece left

No of feet :- 3 feet which is 36 inches
If we cut of 36 inches in part each of 9 inch we will get 4 parts of 9 inch

Find the volume. Use 3.14 for π where necessary. Round the answer to two decimal places.
Answers
Answer:
25.12 feet cubed ~ 25ft^3
Step-by-step explanation:
You're doing a volume for a cone.
Volume of cone formula: 1/3 π r^2 h
You have given me the diameter of 4ft
Height of 6ft.
In order to solve this, you need to divide 4ft by 2ft because we need the radius rather than the diameter.
**The radius is half of the diameter.**
Our new radius is 2ft.
Formula: 1/3π2^2(6)
Now do the exponent first, 2 to the second power or 2 squared is 4.
You need to pull out your calculator.
Steps to calculate the volume:
Do 1 divided by 3 first
Then multiply that by 3.14
Multiply 4
Finally multiply 6
Your Volume for the cone is 25.12 feet cubed
