Answer 1

Answer:

if you have a specific math problem i can help you with it!

Step-by-step explanation:

you essentially translate the words into math. for example if the problem says something like "he has 5 more pieces of candy than her" you would set a variable, in this case "x," and set it up like this.

since "her" is the original amount, we'd do it like this:

her = x

he = x+5

then, we'd figure out what these values have to equal to. let's say there are 9 total pieces of candy. so this is how we'd do it:

(x)+(x+5)=9

now we solve:

2x+5=9

2x=9-5

2x=4

x=2

hope this somewhat helped! if you have more questions, feel free to ask me!

6v+18-9v=-12
solve for v.​

Answers

Answer:

v = 10

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

6v + 18 - 9v = -12

Step 2: Solve for v

Combine like terms:                    -3v + 18 = -12Isolate v term:                              -3v = -30Isolate v:                                       v = 10

Step 3: Check

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

Substitute in v:                    6(10) + 18 - 9(10) = -12Multiply:                               60 + 18 - 90 = -12Add:                                     78 - 90 = -12Subtract:                              -12 = -12

Here we see that -12 does indeed equal -12.

∴ v = 10 is the solution to the equation.

Mai and Tyler work on the equation 2/5 b + 1 = -11 together. Mai’s solution is b= -25 and Tyler’s is b = -28 Here is their work. Do you agree with those solutions?

Mai: Tyler:

2/5 b + 1 = -11 2/5 b + 1 = -11

2/5 b = -10 2b + 1 = -55

b = -10 • 5/2 2b = -56

b = - 25 b = -28

Answers

Answer:

I disagree with both solutions. The value of b that will make the expression correct is -30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation solved my Mai and Tyler expressed as:

2/5 b + 1 = -11

We are to check the veracity of the solutions;

2/5 b + 1 = -11

Subtract 1 from both sides of the expression

2/5 b + 1 -1 = -11-1

2/5 b = -12

Cross multiply

2b = -12 * 5

2b = -60

Divide both sides by 2

2b/2 = -60/2

b = -30

Since the solution b = -25 and -28 does not tally with the gotten solution, I disagree with the both solutions

John has four more nickels than dimes in his pocket, for a total of $1.25. What is an equation that could be used to determine the number of dimes, x, in his pocket?

Answers

The correct equation would be: 0.05(x+4) + 0.10x = $1.25

A nickel is worth 5 cents. A dime is worth 10 cents.

no. of nickels = x + 4
no. of dimes = x

nickels + dimes = 1.25
0.05(x + 4) + 0.10x = 1.25
0.05x + 0.20 + 0.10x = 1.25
0.15x = 1.25 - 0.20
0.15x = 1.05
0.15x/ 0.15 = 1.05 / 0.15
x = 7 *no. of dimes.

no. of nickels = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11

To check:
0.05(11) + 0.10(7) = 1.25
0.55 + 0.70 = 1.25
1.25 = 1.25

The young wizard, Darpinido, got 16 dragons and 12 griffins for his birthday. But his sister, In grid, left the gate open and more a=than 6 dragon and more than 3 griffins flew away. Now the young wizard has more griffins than dragons. What is the greatest number of dragons Darpinido could have now?

Answers

Answer:

7 Dragons.

Step-by-step explanation:

16 dragons                   6+ dragons gone

12 griffins                      3+ griffins gone

Let's say one more than 3 griffins are gone: 4 griffins are gone.

Then:

Griffins now = 8

Dragons now = <8

One less than 8 dragons is 7 dragons.

In the end, 4 griffins and 9 dragons had left.

Lewis walked 9/10 of a mile. His friend walked 2/5 of the way with him. How many miles did Lewis's friend walk with him?

Answers

Answer:

Lewis's friend walked with him 9/25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Lewis walked 9/10 of a mile

And His friend accompanied him on 2/5 of the way.

This is a simple question of fraction multiplication

The fraction 2/5 has to multiplied with the miles walked by lewis

So

[tex]= \frac{2}{5} * \frac{9}{10}\\=\frac{9}{25}[/tex]

Hence,

Lewis's friend walked with him 9/25 miles

Jordan is buying plastic plates for a party.The plates usually cost $2.40 per 10 plates,but they are on sale for 30% off usual price.If jordan buys 50 plates,how much will they cost

Answers

30% off means they are paying 70% of the original price.

Sale price = 2.40 x 0.70 = $1.68 for 10 plates

50 plates /  10  = 5

They buy 5 packages of plates.

1.68 x 5 = $8.40

Total price = $8.40

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2.40 X 5 =$12

12 X 0.3=$3.6 off

12-3.6=$8.40

Therefore it'll cost $8.40

The width of a painting is 4 inches less than the length. The frame that surrounds the painting is 2 inches wide and has an area of 240 square inches. What are the dimensions of the painting? (Hint: The total area minus the area of the painting alone is equal to the area of the frame.)

Answers

Answer:

131 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of the painting. Given that The width of a painting is 4 inches less than the length. Hence:

Width = x - 4

The area of painting = length * width = x(x - 4) = x² - 4x

The frame that surrounds the painting is 2 inches wide (at the top and bottom, left and right). Hence the total width of the frame = (x - 4) + 2 + 2 = x, the length of the frame = x + 2 + 2 = x + 4

The area of the frame = length * breath = x(x +  4) = x² + 4x

Given that the area of the frame = 240 in², hence:

x² + 4x = 240

x² + 4x - 240 = 0

x = -17.62 and x = 13.62

Since the length cannot be negative, hence length = x = 13.62 inches

Area of painting = x(x - 4) = 13.62(13.62 - 4) = 131 in²

Simplify: 5/4(4x+3) - 3/4(x-2)

Carson has two cans of red paint. The first can contains 3 pints of red paint. The second can contains 4 16 pints of red paint. If Carson wants both cans to contain the same amount of paint, how many pints of 2 1paint must he pour from the second can into the first can?

Answers

Answer: 1⁵/₈ pints

Step-by-step explanation:

First can contained 3¹/₄ pints and second can contained 6¹/₂.

To make them equal, first find the different;

= 6¹/₂ - 3¹/₄

= 6.5 - 3.25

= 3.25

Divide this difference by 2;

= 3.25/2

= 1.625

= 1⁶²⁵/₁₀₀₀

= 1⁵/₈ pints

If Carson pours 1⁵/₈ pints from the second Can, it would increase the first can to 4⁷/₈ pints whilst reducing the second can to 4⁷/₈ pints as well.
