If AB = 3x + 5, BC = 2x + 8, and AC = 88, what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

AB + BC = AB

3x+5  + 2x+8 = 88

Combine like terms

5x +13 = 88

Subtract 13 from each side

5x+13-13 = 88-13

5x = 75

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 75/5

x = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

AB + BC = AB

3x + 5 + 2x + 8 = 88

5x + 13 = 88

5x = 88 - 13

= 75/5

= 15

Hope this helps!

Answer:

y = 3x

where y is the plant height in cm and x is the time in months

at 12 months, height would be 36 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to model the data

let’s call the months x and the height y

What do you notice?

we can clearly see that the height is always 3 times the month

3 * 3 = 9

5 * 3 = 15

7 * 3 = 21

9 * 3 = 27

so we can say that;

Time in months * 3 = Plant height in cm

using the x and y notation;

x * 3 = y

or simply y = 3x

Now the height at 12 months can be calculated by substituting the value of x for 12

y = 3 * 12 = 36 cm

O 86
O 90
O 105
O 111

Answers

105 but I need 20 characters to

Step-by-step explanation:

This question gives us a point on a line and the slope of that line. So, the easiest way to answer this question is to use point-slope form, which is written as:

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

So, first of all, we are trying to find y (y, not y₁ which is the y-coordinate of the point we were given). We can go ahead and add y₁ to both sides to get:

y = m(x-x₁) + y₁

We can now simplify the equation to:

y = m·x - m·x₁ + y₁

Now we just input the given information.

m = 5 (slope)

x = 21

x₁ = 5

y₁ = 6

Now we have all the information we need and we can solve.

y = 5·21 - 5·5 + 6

y = 105 - 25 + 6

y = 86

So y, when x = 21, is equal to 86.

Mr. Malone is contemplating which chauffeured car service to take to the airport. The first costs $28 upfront and $2 per mile. The second costs $13 plus $5 per mile. For a certain driving distance, the two companies charge the same total fare. What is the distance?

Answers

Answer:

The distance is 8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.

The first one = 28 + 2x = ?

The second one = 13 + 5x = ?

Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.

I first plugged in 2 as x.

28 + 4 = 32

13 + 10 = 23

That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.

28 + 10 = 38

13 + 25 = 38

So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.

None of the choices are correct.

Answers

Answer:

b) 2 seconds

t=2 seconds will an object reach a height of 32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given  height  f =-16t+16t² ...(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 't'

[tex]\frac{df}{dt} = -16(t) +16(2t)[/tex]

Equating Zero

- 32 t + 16(2t) =0

 - 16 t = -32

        t = 2 seconds

Given height   f =-16t+16t²

                      f = - 16 (2) +16(4) = -32 +64= 32feet

Conclusion:-

t=2 seconds will an object reach a height of 32 feet

The Retained earnings account has a credit balance of $54,000 before closing entries are made. Total revenues for the period are $72,200, total expenses are $48,300, and dividends are $15,800. What is the correct closing entry for the revenue accounts?

Answers

Answer: $62100

Step-by-step explanation:

The following can be deduced from the information given in the question:

Credit balance = $54000

Total revenues = $72,200

Total expenses = $48,300

Dividends = $15,800

Closing entry= Credit balance + Total revenues - (Total expenses + Dividends)

= $54000 + $72,200 - ($48300 + $15800)

= $126200 - $64100

= $62100

If u subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2, u get 1/8, what is the number. please help whoever answers correctly I will mark them brainiest, rate them, and thanks to them.

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Subtract 1/2 from the unknown number: x - 1/2

Multiply the result by 1/2: 1/2(x - 1/2)

You get 1/8: 1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Now we solve the equation for x.

1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Multiply both sides by 2.

2 * 1/2(x - 1/2) = 2 * 1/8

x - 1/2 = 1/4

Multiply both sides by 4

4x - 4 * 1/2 = 4 * 1/4

4x - 2 = 1

Add 2 to both sides.

4x = 3

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 3/4

Henry decides to start an investment savings account. He initially deposits $500 dollars to the bank. Every year, Henry's bank account increases by 15%. Assume x represents the number of years and y is the amount of money in the bank. Which function models this situation below?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved using concept of compound interest

In compound interest

if p is the principal amount

and r is the interest rate

then value of principal amount(A) after n years time is given by

A = p(1+r)^n

=>[tex]A = p(1+r)^n[/tex]

__________________________________

in the problem

in place of n we have x years

y is the amount which is the total amount after n years

p is the principal money deposited = $500

r = 15%

substituting these value in the formula for amount after n years we have

[tex]y= 500(1+15/100)^x\\y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

Thus, function modeling the situation is [tex]y= 500(1+0.15)^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the elevation, e(x) in meters, of a cable car from the ground , x minutes after it begins descending from the top of a hill.

e(x)=840-52.5x

e(14)=840-52.5(14)
