2.4x = 8.4.....divide both sides by -2.4
x = 8.4/-2.4
x = - 3.5

Answer:

value of x is, 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Division property states that you divide the same number to both sides of an equation.

Given the equation:

2.4x = 8.4

Divide both sides by 2.4 we have;

\frac{2.4x}{2.4} = \frac{8.4}{2.4}

Simplify:

⇒x = 3.5

Therefore, the value of x is, 3.5

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

(64/5)π

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle: 16π

central angle: (8/5)π

The Area of the circle corresponds to a central angle equal to 2π (the complete circle). Then the following proportion must be satisfied:

16π / x = 2π / (8/5)π

x = [16π * (8/5)π] / 2π

x = (64/5)π

DIA [1.3K]

The system of linear equations a_1x+b_1y=c_1\\a_2x+b_2y=c_2

can be represented in the form of the Matrix as AX=B

Where A=\begin{pmatrix} a_1 &b_1 \\a_2   &b_2  \end{pmatrix}\\X=\begin{pmatrix} x\\y \\\end{pmatrix}\\ B=\begin{pmatrix} c_1\\c_2 \\\end{pmatrix}

The matrix A is called the coefficient matrix of the system of linear equations.

Here the given system of linear equation as:

7x+8y=28 \\ -3x+9y=-24

The matrix form of the given system of equation as

A=\begin{pmatrix} 7 &8 \\-3   &9  \end{pmatrix}\\B=\begin{pmatrix} 28\\-24 \\\end{pmatrix}\\X=\begin{pmatrix} x\\y \\\end{pmatrix}

The coefficient matrix of A is A=\begin{pmatrix} 7 &8 \\-3   &9  \end{pmatrix}

The volume of a cube depends on the length of its sides. This can be written in function notation as v(s). What is the best inte
stellarik [79]

Let

s--------> the length side of the cube

we know that

the volume of the cube is equal to

V(s)= s^{3}

if the length side s is equal to 2\ feet

then

s=2\ feet

and the volume is equal to

V(2)= 2^{3}

V(2)= 8\ feet^{3}

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

D. A cube with side lengths of 2 feet has a volume of 8 cubic feet.

Determine which equations have the same solution set as StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction minus x plus StartFraction 1 Over 6 E
gtnhenbr [62]

The correct question as understood from the statement is:

Determine which equations have the same solution set as 2/3 – x + 1/6 = 6x by recognizing properties, rather than solving. Check all that apply.

a) 4 - 6x + 1 = 36x

b) 5/6 - x = 6x

c) 4 - x + 1 = 6x

d) 5/6 + x = 6x

e) 5 = 30x

f) 5 = 42x

Answer:

Options: a, b and f

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

\frac{2}{3}-x+\frac{1}{6}=6x

Adding x to both sides, we get:

\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{6}=7x\\\\ \frac{4}{6}+\frac{1}{6}=7x\\\\  \frac{5}{6}=7x\\\\  5=42x\\\\ x=\frac{5}{42}

Option a) 4 - 6x + 1 = 36x

Moving 6x to the right hand side of the equation and simplifying the answer, would give us 5 = 42x, which is the same as the second last equation in above simplification. Thus this equation has the same roots.

Option b) 5/6 - x = 6x

Moving x to other side will give us the same equation as we got in 3rd last step of the above simplification. Thus this equation has the same roots.

Option c) 4 - x + 1 = 6x

Moving x to other side, and simplifying the result gives us an equation which does not match with the equations in above simplifications. So, this equation does not have the same root.

Option d) 5/6 + x = 6x

Moving x to other side, and simplifying the result gives us an equation which does not match with the equations in above simplifications. So, this equation does not have the same root.

Option e) 5 = 30x

This does not match with the second last step of the above simplification. So, this equation does not have the same root.

Option f) 5 = 42x

This equation matches with the second last step of the above simplification.  Thus this equation has the same roots.

Rowanda jogged 2.14 kilometers farther then terrance. Select the values that could represent how far each student jogged. Mark a
kupik [55]
"Rowanda 7.24 km and Terrance 5.1 km" is correct:
Rowanda jogged farther than Terrance so the third version, where 3.51km is smaller than 5.65km, can be ruled out. Then you have to look for the difference between the two values of the others--it has to be a difference of 2.14km. in this case it works:
7.24km - 5.1km = 2.14km
this shows she jogged 2.14km more than Terrance :)
The same thing works for the first version with 6.5km-4.36km=2.14km :) so the first one is correct, too
