solve one step equation



-3x = -9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x = -9

You have to do the inverse operation to solve a linear equation. In this case, the operation is multiplication (-3x) and the inverse would be division.

Thus, we would divide both sides by the coefficient (-3)

-3x/-3  =  -9/-3

Thus, we isolate the variable x, and the result is

x = 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check:

To check our answer, all we have to do is substitute the value of x.

So, we would substitute the equation as

-3(3) = 9

-3 multiplied by 3 is -9, so our answer is correct.

A chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 6% vinegar, and the second brand contains 11% vinegar. The chef wants to make 380 milliliters of a dressing that is 7% vinegar. How much of each brand should she use?

Answers

Answer: To make a 310mL mixture that contains 8% vinegar, use 186mL of the first brand and 124mL of the second brand.

Step-by-step explanation:We want the total mixture to be 310mL so: F + S = 310

 

Also, you want the total mixture to contain 8% vinegar so: .06F + .11S = .08(310)

 

Now, we can solve the system of equations using substitution.

 

F + S = 310

.06F + .11S = .08(310)

 

F = 310 - S      [solve 1st equation for F]

.06(310 - S) + .11S = .08(310)     [substitute into 2nd equation]

18.6 -.06S +.11S = 24.8

.05S = 6.2

S = 124

 

F + 124 = 310     [substitute answer for S back into original equation]

F = 186

A bakery sells glazed donuts for $1.09 each. Cinnamon bagels and onion bagels are $1.59 each. Max buys x donuts, y cinnamon bagels, and z onion bagels. Which expression represents the total amount Max spent at the bakery?
A.

B.
1.09x + 1.59y + 1.59z

1.09x + 3.18(y + z)
D.
(1.09 + 1.59)(x + y + z)

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

For each glazed donut, Max spends $1.09. Therefore, if he buys x donuts, he pays $1.09 x times, or $1.09 * x. Similarly, for cinnamon bagels, he pays $1.59 * y, and for onion bagels, he pays $1.59 * z. Adding these up, we get

It requires 350 joules to raise a certain amount of a substance from 10. 0°C to 30. 0°C. The specific heat of the substance is 1. 2 J/g°C. What is the mass of the substance? 12 g 15 g 18 g 30 g.

Answers

The correct option is B which is 15 g.

Given to us:

the heat  [tex]Q= 350\ Joules[/tex],

the specific heat [tex]c= 1.2\ J/g\ ^o C[/tex],

the lower temperature [tex]t_1= 10^o C[/tex],

the higher temperature [tex]t_2= 30^o C[/tex],

Formula for specific heat:

[tex]Q=mc(\Delta T)[/tex]

where,

[tex]m[/tex] is the mass,

[tex](\Delta T)[/tex] is the temperature difference,

Putting in the values;

[tex]350=m\times 1.2\times (30-10)\\\\m= \dfrac{350}{1.2\times (30-10)} \\\\m=14.5833 grams[/tex]

Hence, the mass is 14.5833 grams. therefore, the correct option is B which is 15 g.

Veronica traveled 562 miles to Venice, Florida. She drove 85 miles every day. On the last day of her trip, she only drove 52 miles. Write and solve an equation to find the number of days veronica traveled.

Answers

Answer:

562 = 85x +52

x is the number of days

Veronica traveled for 7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

562 = 85x + 52

510 = 85x Subtract 52 on both sides

6 = x Divide by 85 to isolate x

Even though Veronica only had to drive 52 miles on the last day of her trip, it still counts as a day of driving. Hence, she traveled 7 days in total.
