Why is there a letter also on Mathematics?

I mean, there is a letter in English...

I don't know why there is a letter like 2x + 19 and x + 23.

It's really frustrating that there's a letter in Mathematics

They can just do "3*4" instead of "x*4 when x=3"

I know... I know... It's a silly question.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Not silly, i understand but "x" is supposed to be a subsitute for a number after the many equations youll be learning in algebra. x can be anything, it isnt set to anykind of specifac number but rather an output of an equation. It is fustrating but i reccomend khan acdemy videos or math nation since they specialze in thses kinds of maths

Answer:

x = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shown is a pentagon

The angles in a pentagon add up to equal 540

Which means that 77 + 107 + 156 + 149 + x = 540

                                    ^ ( note that we just created an equation that we can      

                                        use to solve for x )

We then solve for x using that equation

77 + 107 + 156 + 149 + x = 540  

step 1 combine like terms

77 + 107 + 156 + 149 = 489

we now have 489 + x = 540

step 2 subtract 489 from each side

489 - 489 cancels out

540 - 489 = 51

we're left with x = 51

Here is the third problem:)

Answers

Answer:

15.0

Step-by-step explanation:

we are finidng the adjacent angle, they have given us the opposite and the missing adjacent side so we use tan

tan25=7/x

since x is at the bottom then switch

x= 7/tan25

x= 15. 012

Answer:

x = 15.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Given degrees 25

Since x is between the right angle and 25, x is adjacent

7 being the other shortest side would be the opposite

Given adjacent and opposite, you can use tangent

Tangent = opposite/adjacent

Tan(25) = 7/x

0.4663076582 = 7/x

x = 7/0.4663076582 (use calculator)

Solution: x = 15.0115484421

Answer:

Owner-operators may take in over $260,000 in gross revenue, but once you deduct expenses, maintenance and all of the costs that go along with running a truck, many don’t earn much more than experienced company drivers. It costs about $180,000 per year to run a commercial truck. Operating costs in the trucking industry are about $1.38 per mile.

Start at the origin. Move 2 units right and 8 units up. What is the ordered pair for this point? pls help ASAP​

Answers

Answer: (2,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The origin is the point (0,0), so when you move two units right you land on the x-value of 2. From there you then add 8 units, putting you at the y-value of 8. Therefore, you end with the point (2,8) after this translation.

A 10 ft board is to be cut into three pieces, two equal- length ones and the third 9 in shorter than each of the other two. If the cutting does not result in any length being lost, how long are the pieces?

Answers

Answer:

Let  x  represent one of the equal length sides making the third side which is  3  inches shorter than each of the other two equal to:

Third piece  =  x − 3 . Knowing that the whole board is  10  feet, in inches it is:

10  feet  ×  12  inches / 1  foot  =  120  inches

To find the length of the pieces, add them and equate it to the legth of the board in inches as shown below:

x  +  x  +  x  −  3  =  120  + 3

3 x /3  =  123 /3

x  =  41  inches

Third piece  =  x  −  3  =

AB and BC form a right angle at their point of intersection, B. If the coordinates of A and Bare (14, -1) and (2, 1), respectively, the y-intercept of AB is 4/3 and the equation of BC is y= 6 X + If the y-coordinate of point Cis 13, its x-coordinate is​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Segments AB and BC intersect each other at 90° at B.

Let the equation of the segment AB → y = mx + b

Here, m = Slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Slope of the line AB passing through A(14, -1) and B(2, 1)

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1+1}{2-14}[/tex]

          = [tex]-\frac{2}{12}[/tex]

          = [tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Equation of the line will be,

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{6}(x)+b[/tex]

Since, AB passes through (2, 1)

[tex]1=-\frac{1}{6}(2)+b[/tex]

[tex]b=1+\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]b=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, y-intercept of AB = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Equation of AB → [tex]y=-\frac{1}{6}(x)+\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Since, line BC is perpendicular to AB,

By the property of perpendicular lines,

[tex]m_1\times m_2=-1[/tex]

Here, [tex]m_1[/tex] and [tex]m_2[/tex] are the slopes of line AB and BC respectively.

By this property,

[tex]-\frac{1}{6}\times m_2=-1[/tex]

[tex]m_2=6[/tex]

Equation of a line passing through a point (h, k) and slope 'm' is,

(y - k) = m(x - h)

Therefore, equation of line BC passing through B(2, 1) and slope = 6,

y - 1 = 6(x - 2)

y = 6x - 11

Since, line BC passes through C(x, 13),

13 = 6x - 11

6x = 24

x = 4

Therefore, x-coordinate of point C will be, x = 4

Number of possible characters

Since the order and ways of selecting each character is not selected, then it means that any of the permissible character can occupy any of the 7 available spaces, with repetition.

The total possible characters (n) is:

[tex]n = 26 +10 + 1 + 1[/tex]

[tex]n = 38[/tex]

Any of the 38 characters can occupy any of the 7 spaces.

Hence, the total number of character is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah and Corrine are playing a game by rolling two cubes, each numbered 1 through 6. If the sum of the numbers on the cubes is 7, Hannah wins. If the sum is not 7, Corrine wins. Corrine says Hannah can win only if the following occurs:
1 on the first cube, 6 on the second cube
2 on the first cube, 5 on the second cube
3 on the first cube, 4 on the second cube

Which best explains if Corrine is correct?

Corrine is correct because there are only three ways to have a sum of 7 when the cubes are rolled.

Corrine is correct because there are no 7s on the cubes, so Hannah must roll a greater number on the second cube.

Corrine is not correct because Hannah can also roll doubles on the cubes, such as 3 on the first cube and 3 on the second cube or 4 on the first cube and 4 on the second cube.

Corrine is not correct because Hannah also wins if 6 is on the first cube and 1 is on the second, if 5 is on the first cube and 2 is on the second, and if 4 is on the first cube and 3 is on the second.

Answers

D. Corrine is not correct because Hannah also wins if 6 is on the first cube and 1 is on the second, if 5 is on the first cube and 2 is on the second, and if 4 is on the first cube and 3 is on the second.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a sum of 7 by rolling two cubes, we need to get one of the combinations from the list below:

1 on the first cube, 6 on the second cube

or

6 on the first cube, 1 on the second cube

2 on the first cube, 5 on the second cube

or

5 on the first cube, 2 on the second cube

3 on the first cube, 4 on the second cube

or

4 on the first cube, 3 on the second cube

Therefore, the correct answer option is D. Corrine is not correct because Hannah also wins if 6 is on the first cube and 1 is on the second, if 5 is on the first cube and 2 is on the second, and if 4 is on the first cube and 3 is on the second.

What is the volume of the cylinder below?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Volume=80\pi[/tex] [tex]units^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular height of the base of cylinder h = 5 units

Slant height I = 6 units

Radius of the cylinder r = 4 units

Volume of the lateral cylinder is

[tex]V = \pi r^{2} h[/tex]-----------(1)

Where r is radius of the cylinder

And h is perpendicular height of the base of cylinder.

Now, we substitute r and h value in equation 1.

[tex]V=\pi[/tex] × [tex]4^{2}[/tex] × [tex]5[/tex]

[tex]V=\pi[/tex] × [tex]16[/tex] x [tex]5[/tex]

[tex]V=\pi[/tex] × [tex]80[/tex]

[tex]V=80\pi[/tex] [tex]units^{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the given cylinder is [tex]80\pi[/tex] [tex]units^2[/tex].

What is a permutation?

Mathematical calculations are used to determine the number of different configurations for a given set, and this procedure is referred to as permutation. A permutation is a phrase that, simply put, refers to the diversity of alternative configurations or ordering. When employing permutations, the sequence of the arrangement is crucial.

Formula for combination is

n!/(r! x (n-r)!),

where n is a number of shirts and r is the shirts selected.

In combination,

order doesn’t matter, as opposed to permutation.

According to the question,

n = 10 and r = 5

Then substituting the above values to the formula,

that means,

10! / ( 5! x 5!)

= 10x9x8x7x6 / ( 5x4x3x2x1)

= 252

Therefore, You can pack 5 shirts in 252 ways.
