Step-by-step explanation:

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 = -3

Step-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 = 8

16 / 2 = 8

8 = 8

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, Verified .

Therefore , our answer is valid .

What fraction is equivalent to six tenths and has a denominator of 100?

Answers

Answer:

6 = 6/10

Step-by-step explanation:

.6 = 6/10 , by definition. = 3/5 (reduced -- divide numerator and denominator by 2.

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{60}{100}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Six tenths:

[tex]\dfrac{6}{10}[/tex]

where 6 is the numerator and 10 is the denominator

We want the denominator to be 100, so how do we convert 10 into 100?

We multiply by 10, since 10 x 10 = 100

When working out equivalent fractions, we must remember to do the same operation to both the numerator and denominator.  Therefore, we should multiply both by 10:

[tex]\dfrac{6 \times 10}{10 \times 10}=\dfrac{60}{100}[/tex]

Therefore, the fraction that is equivalent to six tenths and has a denominator of 100 is:

[tex]\dfrac{60}{100}[/tex]

What is Surface Area?

The area of a three dimensional object on it's outer surface is called the surface area of the object.

Given a rectangular prism.

It consists of 3 pairs of identical rectangular sides.

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Find the area of each rectangular sides to find the total area.

Total area = (5 × 3) + (5 × 3) + (5 × 4) + (5 × 4) + (4 × 3) + (4 × 3)

                 = 15 + 15 + 20 + 20 + 12 + 12

The angle B = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles of a triangle is 180°

=> 40°+(2x-30)°+(x+20)° = 180°

=> 40°+2x°-30°+x°+20° = 180°

=> 30°+3x= 180°

=> 3x = 180°-30°

=> 3x = 150°

=> x = 150/3

=> x = 50°

So,the value of x = 50°

now , angle B = (2x-30) = (2×50 -30 ) = (100-30) = 70°

In the electric field [tex]{\vec{E}=3x\hat{i}-2y\hat{j}+5z\hat{k}}[/tex], find the potential difference between the points A(1,3,5) and B(3,2,7)​

Answers

Let's recall that, the potential difference between any two points X(x,y,z) and Y(a,b,c) is given by ;

[tex]{\boxed{\bf{V_{Y}-V_{X}=\displaystyle \bf -\int_{X}^{Y}\overrightarrow{E}\cdot \overrightarrow{dr}}}}[/tex]

So, here ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf \overrightarrow{E}=3x\hat{i}-2y\hat{j}+5z\hat{k}}[/tex]

So, now our second component of the Integrand will just be ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf \overrightarrow{dr}=dx\hat{i}+dy\hat{j}+dz\hat{k}}[/tex]

So, now the whole integrand will just be ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf \overrightarrow{E}\cdot \overrightarrow{dr}=(3x\hat{i}-2y\hat{j}+5z\hat{k})(dx\hat{i}+dy\hat{j}+dz\hat{k})}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf \overrightarrow{E}\cdot \overrightarrow{dr}=3xdx-2ydy+5zdz}[/tex]

Now, Let's move to the final answer ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\int_{X}^{Y}3xdx-2ydy+5zdz}[/tex]

As,X is the point (1,3,5) and Y being (3,2,7) , so seperate the integral into three integrals with limits as follows respectively;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\bigg(\int_{1}^{3}3xdx-\int_{3}^{2}ydy+\int_{5}^{7}zdz\bigg)}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\bigg(3\int_{1}^{3}xdx-2\int_{3}^{2}ydy+5\int_{5}^{7}zdz\bigg)}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\bigg\{3\bigg(\dfrac{x^2}{2}\bigg)\bigg|_{1}^{3}-2\bigg(\dfrac{y^2}{2}\bigg)\bigg|_{3}^{2}+5\bigg(\dfrac{z^2}{2}\bigg)\bigg|_{5}^{7}\bigg\}}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\bigg\{2\bigg(\dfrac{9}{2}-\dfrac12\bigg)-2\bigg(\dfrac{4}{2}-\dfrac92\bigg)+5\bigg(\dfrac{49}{2}-\dfrac{25}{2}\bigg)\bigg\}}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf V_{Y}-V_{X}=-\{3(4)-(-5)+5(12)\}}[/tex]

Event A has a 90% chance of occurring. Event B has a 20% chance of occurring. The correlation (i.e. whether they tend to occur together, or separately, or are unrelated) between the events is unknown.

What is the maximum probability that both event A and event B will occur?

What is the minimum probability that both event A and event B will occur?

Answers

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:

= 90% × 20%

= 18%

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

= (90% + 20%) - 1

= 1.10 - 1

= 10%

Given the equation, what is the center and radius of the circle?

Answers

We are given the equation of circle (x - 7)² + (y - 3)² = 64² , but let's recall the standard equation of circle i.e (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where (h, k) is the centre of the circle and r being the radius ;

So, consider the equation of circle ;
