can you tell me what you don't understand about this ?
because it is really simple, once you understand the transformations of equations.
remember, whatever we do to one side. we have to do also to the other side, so that the information in general stays the same.
(7 - 3x)/2 = 8 multiply both sides by 2
7 - 3x = 16 subtract 7 from both sides
-3x = 9 divide both sides by 3
-x = 3 multiply both sides by -1
x = -3
and that's the whole "secret" about solving an equation.
Answer:
x = -3Step-by-step explanation:
In the question we are given with an equation that is ( 7 - 3x ) / 2 = 8 . And we have asked to find the value of x .
Solution : -
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{7 - 3x}{2} = 8[/tex]
Step 1 : Multiplying both sides by 2 :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{7 - 3x}{ \cancel{2} }\times \cancel{2 }= 8 \times 2 [/tex]
On further calculations, We get :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: 7 - 3x = 16[/tex]
Step 2 : Subtracting with 7 on both sides :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \cancel{ 7 }- 3x - \cancel{ 7 }= 16 - 7[/tex]
On calculating further, We get :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: - 3x = 9[/tex]
Step 3 : Dividing with -3 on both sides :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{ - 3}x}{ \cancel{-3}} = \cancel{\dfrac{9}{ - 3} }[/tex]
On calculating further, We get :
[tex] \longrightarrow \qquad \: \red{\underline{\boxed{\frak{x = - 3}}}}[/tex]
Therefore, value of x is -3 .Verifying : -
Now , we are verifying our answer by substituting value of x in given equation . So ,
( 7 - 3x ) / 2 = 8[ 7 - 3 ( -3 ) ] / 2 = 8( 7 + 9 ) / 2 = 816 / 2 = 88 = 8L.H.S = R.H.SHence, Verified .Therefore , our answer is valid .
#Keep LearningAn object is thrown upward from the top of 96-foot building with an initial velocity of 80 feet per second. The height h of the object after t seconds is given by the quadratic equation h=16t^2+80t+96. When will the object hit the ground?
Answers
The function of the object height is an illustration of a projectile motion
The object will never hit the ground
How to determine when the object hits the ground?
The function is given as:
h=16t^2+80t+96.
When the object hits the ground, h = 0
So, we have:
16t^2+80t+96 = 0
Divide through by 16
t^2+5t+6 = 0
Expand
t^2 + 3t + 2t + 6 = 0
Factorize
t(t + 3) + 2(t + 3) = 0
Factor out t + 3
(t + 2)(t + 3) = 0
Solve for t
t = -2 or t = -3
The time (t) cannot be negative.
Hence, the object will never hit the ground

Answer: the number of labor was :
Answers
Answer:
equation: 1368 = 380 +52xlabor hours: 19Step-by-step explanation:
The desired equation will relate labor cost, parts cost, and total cost.
A.The total cost is the sum of the parts cost and the product of labor hours and labor rate. We're told to use x to represent labor hours.
total cost = part cost + (labor rate)(labor hours)
1368 = 380 + 52x
__
B.This equation can be solved in 2 steps:
988 = 52x . . . . . . . step 1, subtract 380 from both sides
19 = x . . . . . . . . . . step 2, divide both sides by the coefficient of x
The number of labor hours was 19.

What is the area of the figure below ?

Answers
Step 1: Find the area of the larger rectangle
Area of a rectangle = base x height
Area = 4 x 3 = 12
Step 2: Find the area of the other rectangle
The tricky part about this one is that we aren't given the length of this rectangle. We do know, however, that the whole base of the figure is 6 and 3 units are taken up by the first rectangle. Therefore, the length of this rectangle is 3.
Area = 2 x 3 = 6

The maximum probability that both event A and event B will occur is 18%.
How to compute the probability?From the information, Event A has a 90% chance of occurring. Event B has a 20% chance of occurring. Therefore, the maximum probability will be:

The minimum probability that both event A and event B will occur will be:

[tex]\sf evaluate \ \dfrac{-4+(m+2)}{n} \ \sf when \ m=\dfrac23 \ and \ \sf n=\dfrac13[/tex]
Solution
Substitute the given values of m and n into the original expression:
[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{-4+(\frac23+2)}{\frac13}[/tex]
Carry out the operation in the brackets first [tex]\sf (\frac23+3)=\frac83[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{-4+\frac83}{\frac13}[/tex]
Now carry out the operation in the numerator [tex]-4+\frac83=-\frac43[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{-\frac43}{\frac13}[/tex]
Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the flipped version of the fraction (flipped = swap the numerator and denominator of the fraction we are dividing by):
[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac43 \div \dfrac13=-\dfrac43 \times \dfrac31[/tex]
To multiply a fraction, simply multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators:
[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac43 \times \dfrac31=\dfrac{-4 \times 3}{3 \times 1}=-\dfrac{12}{3}[/tex]
Finally simplify:
[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac{12}{3}=-4[/tex]

the legnth of a rectangle is three times its width. if the length of the perimeter is 64 in, find the length and width
Answers
Answer:
Length and width of rectangle is 24 and 8 inchesStep-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of rectangle is three times the widthPerimeter of rectangle is 64 InchesTo Find:
Length and WidthSolution:
Let's assume Width of rectangle x inches and length be 3x inches. To calculate the dimensions of The rectangle we will use the formula of Perimeter of rectangle:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(L + B)
→ 64 = 2(3x + x)
→ 64 = 2(4x)
→ 64/2 = 4x
→ 32 = 4x
→ 32/4 = x
→ 8 = x
Hence,
Length of the rectangle = 3x = 3(8) = 24 inchesWidth of the rectangle = x = 8 inchesAnswer:
Length = 24 inchesWidth = 8 inches⠀
Step-by-step explanation :
⠀
As it is given that, the legnth of a rectangle is three times its width and the perimeter is 64 in and we are to find the length and width of the rectangle. So,
⠀
Let us assume the width of the rectangle as w inches and therefore, the length will be 3w inches .
⠀
Now, According to the Question :
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad { \pmb{\frak {2 ( Length + Breadth )= Perimeter_{(Rectangle)} }}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{2 (3 x + x )= 64 }}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{2 (4x )= 64 }}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{8x= 64 }}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad { {\sf{ x = \dfrac{64}{8} }}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad{ \underline{ \boxed { \pmb{\mathfrak {x = 8}} }}} }\: \: \bigstar[/tex]
⠀
Therefore,
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches .⠀
Now, We are to find the length of the rectangle:
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad{ { \frak{\pmb{Length = 3x }}}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad{ { \frak{\pmb{Length = 3 \times 8 }}}}}[/tex]
⠀
[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad{ \underline{ \boxed{ \frak{\pmb{Length = 24}}}}}} \: \: \bigstar[/tex]
⠀
Therefore,
The length of the rectangle is 24 inches .⠀

In statistics, the mode is the value that is repeatedly occurring or you can say that has higher frequency in a given set of numbers or values. For instance in (1, 2, 5, 6, 2, 3) mode is 2 because it has appeared in the given set twice.
As in the given problem, the cross represents the number of a particular number, indicating whether the given number is repeated or not. And if repeated, how many times?
→ 5, 6, 10 = 1 (number of repetition; each)
→ 7, 8 = 2 (number of repetition; each)
→ 9 = 3 (number of repetition)
Therefore, the mode for the given set of data is 9.
