Study Notes
Solving Equations
- For the equation x - 5 = -13, the solution is x = -8.
- Solving the expression -8 = n - (-4) results in n = -12.
- The equations 17x = 85 and x = 5 are equivalent, confirming the solution is consistent.
- In contrast, -16x = 48 and x = 3 are not equivalent.
Algebraic Solutions
- Solving b/2 = 14 gives b = 28.
- The equation 14x + 3x - 40 = 11 simplifies to x = 3.
Consecutive Integers Problem
- The sum of three consecutive integers can be expressed as x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 417, leading to x = 138.
Additional Equations
- The equation 3x - 8 = -3x + 4 simplifies to find x = 2.
- A financial problem described by 10h = 300 + 4h results in h = 50 hours for nonmembers to consider membership.
Geometry and Design
- For a webpage with 4 pictures within a width of 640, accounting for margins and spacing leads to each picture being 136 in width.
- The equation -15x + 73 = 26 resolves to x = 3.13.
More Algebraic Manipulations
- The equation 1.5x + 7.4 = -1.8x - 6.9 simplifies to x = -4.33.
- An equivalent equation of 6.2x + 4.5 = 3.8x + 7.9 after multiplying by 10 is 62x + 45 = 38x + 79.
Geometry Formula
- Solving for b1 in the formula A = 1/2h(b1 + b2) results in the expression b1 = (2A/h) - b2.
Functions
- The equation 3x + 5y = 15 can be rewritten to express y as a function of x: y = 3 - (3/5)x.
Unit Rate and Conversion
- The unit rate for 3 tablespoons serving 1.5 servings is calculated to be 2.
- Converting 15 teaspoons into tablespoons results in 5 (1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons).
Percent Calculation
- To find the percentage, 159 people in favor out of 350 result in approximately 45%.
