Find the value for x that makes the given equation true. - -4(3x – 7) + 5x = -2x + 8​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Okay this might be slightly confusing but I'll try to make it simple. x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 ( 3x - 7 ) + 5x = -2x + 8 1. get rid of parenthesis first. -4 times 3x = -12x and -4 times -7 is 28

-12x + 28 + 5x = -2x + 8 2. Combine any like terms on each side of the equation. -7x + 28 = -2x + 8 3. Get rid of the smallest x value by adding to both sides -7x

+7x +7x

28 = -2x + 8 4. subtract 8 from both sides to get rid of it. (you wanna get x alone)

-8 -8

20 = -2x 5. Divide both sides by -2 to get 1x (which is x)

/-2 /-2

x = -10

Consider the equation and its solution. 8 (x minus 2) = 64. 8 x minus 16 = 64. 8 x = 80. X = 10. Which property is used in the last step to find that x = 10? Distributive property addition property of equality subtraction property of equality division property of equality

Answers

Answer:

Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation and its solution. 8 (x minus 2) = 64.

8 x minus 16 = 64.

8 x = 80.

x = 10.

Which property is used in the last step to find that x = 10

The property used in the last step to find that x = 10 is called the DIVISION PROPERTY OF EQUALITY

The Division property of equality states that , when two sides of a quadratic equation are divide by the same integer that is greater than zero, both sides will be equal to one another

Let c be the integer greater than zero

ac = bc

Divide both sides by c

a = b

From the above question

8 x = 80

This is also written as:

8x = 8 × 10

Division property of equality

Divide both sides by 8

Hence,

x = 10

Answer:

division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

since the equation before our answer was a multiplication equation, you must counteract that with the division property of equality.

Are the lines parallel? y = x + 4 and y = x-2

A. yes, they have the same slope and a different y-intercept
B. no, they are not parallel​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that parallel lines have the same slope.

The y-intercept does not matter.

We have the two equations:

[tex]y=x+4[/tex]

And:

[tex]y=x-2[/tex]

The slope is the coefficient in front of the x.

In the first equation, we can rewrite it as:

[tex]y=(1)x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the first equation is 1.

Similarly, for the second equation, we can rewrite it as:

[tex]y=(1)x-2[/tex]

The slope of the second equation is also 1.

Therefore, since their slopes are equivalent, they are parallel.

Thus, our correct answer is A.

Barnes and noble needs to ship 14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books. The store can only pack one genre of book in each box, and they must pack the same number of books in each box. What is the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box?

Answers

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books needs to b shipped.

If they want to pack one genre of book in each box such that they pack same number of books in each box.

Then, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box

= GCD(14,12,8)

Since, 14 = 2 x 7

12 = 2 x 2 x 3

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

GCD(14,12,8)=2

Hence, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box = 2

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  -12.

The middle term is,  -x  its coefficient is  -1 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -3

     -3    +    1    =    -2  

     -1    +    3    =    2

Why is it that when comparing a squares area with a rectangles area, with the SAME PERIMETER, that the square has a greater area?

Answers

s = side length of square

4s = perimeter of square

L = length of rectangle

W = width of rectangle

P = 2L+2W = perimeter of rectangle

4s = 2L+2W .... since we want the perimeters the same

4s = 2(L+W)

s = 0.5(L+W)

s^2 = (0.5(L+W))^2 ... square both sides

s^2 = 0.25(L+W)^2

The last equation shows the area of the square, s^2, in terms of L and W. This way we can connect the square to the rectangle.

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

The area of the rectangle is LW

Let's subtract this from the area of the square and see what we get

A = area of square = s^2

B = area of rectangle = LW

C = difference in area

C = A - B

C = s^2 - LW

C = 0.25(L+W)^2 - LW

C = 0.25(L^2+2LW+W^2) - LW

C = 0.25L^2+0.5LW+0.25W^2-LW

C = 0.25L^2-0.5LW+0.25W^2

C = 0.25(L^2-2LW+W^2)

C = 0.25(L-W)^2

Regardless of what we pick for L and W, the expression (L-W)^2 is always positive. Squaring a negative number leads to a positive result.

So C is always positive as long as [tex]L \ne W[/tex]

If C > 0, and C = A - B, then

C > 0

A-B > 0 .... replace C with A-B

A > B .... add B to both sides

This shows the square area is always larger than the rectangle.

Again this only works if L and W are different values. If L = W, then the argument falls apart because the rectangle becomes the square.

We make [tex]L \ne W[/tex] to have a nonsquare rectangle.

Let ddd be the number of kilograms of dark chocolate she buys and mmm be the number of kilograms of milk chocolate she buys.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

ATQ,

Let d be the number of kilograms of dark chocolate she buys and m be the number of kilograms of milk chocolate she buys.

She needs to buy 120 kg of chocolate in total for her next order, and her recipe calls for twice the amount of dark chocolate as milk chocolate.

So,

m = 2d .....(1)

m + d = 120 ...(2)

We can also solve the above equations,

Put m = 2d in equation (2)

2d + d = 120

3d=120

d = 40

Put d = 40 in equation (1)

m = 2(40)

m = 80

Hence, she will need 40 kg of dark chocolate and 80 kg of milk chocolate.

d+m=120

400+300+40=740 this is the cost for only going there and not coming back.

What are the values of x and y?
image attached. Thank you!

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll have to use trigonometry for this.

First, note that in right triangle ABC, if we look from the perspective of angle A, the opposite side is x, the adjacent side is y, and the hypotenuse is 18.

In order to find x, then, we must use sine, which is opposite/hypotenuse. So:

sin(A) = sin(60) = opposite/hypotenuse = x/18

sin(60) is equal to (√3)/2, so multiplying both sides by 18 gives:

[(√3)/2] * 18 = 9√3

Already, we can tell that the answer is likely C, but let's find y to make sure.

We will use cosine to find y because cos = adjacent/hypotenuse.

cos(A) = cos(60) = adjacent/hypotenuse = y/18

cos(60) = 0.5, so multiplying both sides by 18 gives:

0.5 * 18 = 9

So, y = 9.

Thus, C is our answer.

~ an aesthetics lover

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine/ sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact values

cos30° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] and sin30° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , then

cos30° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BC}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

2x = 18[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 9[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

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

sin30° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AB}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

2y = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 9

Thus

x = 9[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] and y = 9 → C
