Math Problem Statement

Use the formula d = 1ct to find the value of:

a c when d = 100 and t = 8

Solution

To find the value of cc when d=100d = 100 and t=8t = 8, we can use the given formula:

d=1ctd = 1ct

Step-by-step solution:

  1. Substitute the given values of dd and tt into the formula: 100=1×c×8100 = 1 \times c \times 8

  2. Simplify the equation: 100=8c100 = 8c

  3. Solve for cc: c=1008=12.5c = \frac{100}{8} = 12.5

So, the value of cc is 12.5.

Here are 5 related questions:

  1. How would the formula change if we had a different power on tt?
  2. Can we rearrange the formula for tt instead of cc?
  3. What would happen if tt was 0?
  4. How do you solve for a different variable in similar equations?
  5. Can you use this formula for other types of relationships between variables?

Tip: When solving equations for a variable, always isolate the variable you are solving for by performing the inverse of any operations around it.
