Write the following phrase as an algebraic expression. Use b for the unknown. A number split into 18 equal parts

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-(x+5)=-1

Solve for x

Distribute the minus sign

2x-x-5=-1

Combine like terms

x -5 = -1

Add 5 to each side

x-5+5 = -1+5

x=4

[tex]2x-(x+5)=-1[/tex]

Distribute negative sign:

[tex]2x+-1(x+5)=-1[/tex]

[tex]2x+-x+-5=-1[/tex]

Combine Like Terms:

[tex](2x+-x)+(-5)=-11[/tex]

[tex]x-5=-1[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides:

[tex]x-5+5=-1+5[/tex]

By working together, they can make the work done in two hours and forty-six minutes.

Given data :

Think of these work rates as "greenhouses per hour", not "hours per greenhouse". Then Steve's work rate is one fourth of a greenhouse per hour, and his son's is one ninth of a greenhouse per hour. Now, multiply each rate by the time t to get the portion of the greenhouse each paints, and add the products up to get one greenhouse. The work equation becomes:

1 / 4 t + 1 / 9 t = 1

9 / 36 . t + 4 / 36 t = 1

13 / 36 t = 1

36 / 13. 13 / 36 t  = 36 / 13 .1

t = 36 / 13 hrs

By translating, stretching and contracting, or reflecting, two functions from the same function family can become one another. Any function from a function family can be obtained by applying one or more transformations to a parent function.

Absolute value functions can be created using the same kinds of operations that produce new linear functions. They also have a similar impact on absolute value functions.

T = kA (where k is constant of proportionality)

It takes her about 30 minutes to mow 1,000 square yards. That is:

T = 30 and A = 1,000

T = kA

30 = 1000k

k = 30/1000

Linear expressions can be used to describe various mathematical and physical phenomena, such as the slope of a line or the volume of a cylinder.

The equivalent ratio that represents Cameron's run is 1 : 8

Equivalent Ration:

In mathematics, the definition of equivalence ratio says: The equality of two ratios is also called a ratio. Front and follow have different values, but reducing them to their simplest form gives the same value.

For example, to find out if 2:3 and 16:24 are equivalent ratios, we need to reduce both ratios to their simplest form. The HCF of 2 and 3 is 1, so 2:3 is already in the simplest form. The HCF for 16 and 24 is 8. Divide these two numbers by 8 to get the reduced form. This means (16÷8):(24÷8) = 2:3. It's clear that 2:3 and 16:24 are the same value, equivalent ratios.

The water level is rising at a rate of 0.5tf² /min*ft². This is in cubic feet per minute per square feet, if you want to express this in terms of height, you will have to convert the units

To find out how fast the water level is rising, we need to use the concept of volume flow rate. Volume flow rate is the volume of fluid that passes through a given surface per unit of time. In this case, the volume flow rate is given as 3tf^3/min.

Since the base of the tank is a rectangle with dimensions 2x3 ft, we can find the area of the base by multiplying the length and width:

2 ft * 3 ft = 6 ft^2

To find the rate of change of the water level, we need to divide the volume flow rate by the area of the base.

3tf^3/min / 6 ft^2 = 0.5tf^3/min*ft^2

So the water level is rising at a rate of 0.5tf^3/min*ft^2

The fourth one could not represent the three sides of a triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

because the two sides of the triangle must be larger together than the third side and 7+16=23<24, so the fourth one could not represent the three sides of a triangle.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation: The third one down. There are two ways you know this.

1. If you had two boards that where 6 cm and 20 cm and tried to make a triangle with the third side = 27, the two little boards would lie flat on the 27 cm board.

2. The other three answers all make the smaller two sides larger than the third larger side.

To prove that (4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) is positive for all values of x, we can start by expanding the expression:

(4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) = 16x^2 - 40x + 25 - 15x^2 + 40x = -14x^2 + 80x - 25

Now, we can complete the square to find that this expression is always positive:

-14x^2 + 80x - 25 = (-14x^2 + 80x) - 25

= (-14x^2 + 80x + (80/2)^2 - (80/2)^2) - 25

= (-14x + 40)^2 - 25 - 40^2 + 40^2

= 15^2 - 25

= (15 - 5)(15 + 5)

= 10(20)

= 200

Since this expression is equal to 200, which is a positive number, we can conclude that (4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) is positive for all values of x.
