-5 - (-7 - 4x) = -2(3x - 4)       |<em>use distributive property</em>

-5 -(-7) - (-4x) = (-2)(3x) + (-2)(-4)

-5 + 7 + 4x = -6x + 8

2 + 4x = -6x + 8     |<em>-2</em>

4x = -6x + 6      |<em>+6x</em>

10x = 6      |<em>:10</em>

x = 0.6

The decay rate should have units, it should be negative and it should be 100 times smaller than what you posted.
k = -.000124 / years

k = -.000124 / years
Half-Life = ln (.5) / k
Half-Life = -.693147 / -.000124
Half-Life = <span> <span> <span> 5589.8951612903 </span> </span> </span>
Half-Life = 5,590 (rounded)

elapsed time = half-life * log(bgng amt / end amt) / log(2)
elapsed time = 5,590 * log(10) / <span> <span> <span> 0.3010299957 </span> </span> </span>

Particle travels along a circular path that has a radius of 3 feet. The angular velocity of the particle is 18 radians per minut
Gala2k [10]
We know that

[length of a circumference ]=2*pi*r
for r=3 ft

[length of a circumference ]=2*pi*3-----------> 18.84 ft

<span>The angular velocity of the particle is 18 radians per minute.

if 2pi radians  (full circle)------------------> 18.84 ft
18 radians----------------------------------> X
X=18*18.84/(2*pi)---------> X=54 ft
so
</span>The linear velocity of the particle is 54 ft/minute

the answer is
54 ft/min

The price of a pair of headphones is $39.99 before tax. Dalton bought the headphones for 30% off. He then paid 6% sales tax on t
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

part A 1.68

part B 29.67

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply $39.99 dollars and  0.30 = $11.9970 you round this to $12.00

After you apply the discount $39.99 - $12.00  = 27.99  

Next you must multiply 27.99*0.06 =1.6794 and round to 1.68 to get tax

Helen gathered 37 mushrooms in three hours. How many mushrooms did she gather every hour, if she gathered 7 more mushrooms in th
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

On the first hour she gathered 8 mushroons, on the second 15 mushroons and on the third she gathered 14 mushroons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Helen gathred a total of 37 mushroons in three hours. On the first hour she gathered "x" mushroons, on the second hour she gathered "x + 7" mushroons and on the third hour she gathered "x + 6". Therefore the sum of mushrrons she gathered on each hour should be equal to the total she gathered as shown below:

37 = x + (x+ 7) + (x + 6)

37 = 3*x + 13

3*x + 13 = 37

3*x = 37 - 13

3*x = 24

x = 24 / 3

x = 8

On the first hour she gathered 8 mushroons, on the second 15 mushroons and on the third she gathered 14 mushroons.
