3x + 10 = 5(x – 17)
how do i solve this?
any easy examples?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x= 95/2  or  x=47.5  or   47 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 10 = 5(x - 17)

First Step:

multiply and combine the right side (parentheses)

5 times x = 5x         5 times -17 = -85

3x + 10 = 5x -85

Second Step:

Add like terms ----> which is: 3x and 5x -----10 and -85

BUT since you only want one x on one side, you combine x first.

3x + 10 = 5x -85

-5x         -5x

-2x + 10 = -85

NOW

Third Step:     Add the integers---> 10 and -85

you want to get 10 on the same side as the -85, so you subtract it from BOTH sides.

which brings you:

-2x + 10 = -85

       -10    -10

                       

NOW that we've subtracted -10 from -85 it's technically just adding 85 and 10 then putting a negative sign on it.

so now we have:

-2x = -95

Step Four:

divide -2 from each side to get X alone

-2x = -95

-2      -2

ANSWER:

x=47.5

Answers

Answer:

y = - x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the slope-intercept form, which is:

y=x-6.

Then, y=x+6

y=-x+4 should be the answer since it passes through the point (-1, 5)

A rectangular table top has dimensions as 1.52m and 0.75m. Find the perimeter in cm

Answers

That is a question about perimeter of rectangle.

The perimeter of a geometric shape is the sum of the value of the all sides.

In a rectangle, the opposite sides are cogruentes (equals). For example, look at picture below. In that rectangle, the sides AB and DC are equals, and the sides AD and BC are equals.

So, the sides of that rectangular table are: 1.52m, 1.52m, 0.75m and 0.75.

Therefore, the perimeter of that rectangle is [tex]1.52+1.52+0.75+0.75= 4.54[/tex]m.

But that is not the final answer because that is the perimeter in meters and the question want the answer in centimeters.

1 meter has 100 centimeter, so we need to multiplicate the perimeter by 100.

Thus, the perimeter of that rectangular table is [tex]4.54\cdot 100 = 454[/tex]cm.

sweater regularly priced for $84 is placed on sale for $67.20. What is the percent discount?

Answers

Answer:  20% discount

Work Shown:

amount saved = 84-67.20 = 16.80 dollars

Divide this over the original larger price to get 16.80/84 = 0.20 = 20%

Note how 20% of 84 = 0.20*84 = 16.80 to help check the answer.

Or we can say 0.80*84 = 67.20 which also helps confirm the answer.

The 0.80 is from the fact that you save 20% but still have to pay the remaining 80%

What connections can we make between finding the slope of a line connecting two points and the distance between those same two points?

Answers

Answer:

Using two of the points on the line, you can find the slope of the line by finding the rise and the run. The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run. The slope equals the rise divided by the run: Slope =riserun Slope = rise run .

Elise says, "If you subtract 18 from my number and multiply the difference by - 3, the result is
- 33." What is Elise's number?

Answers

Elise's number is 29.

If you think of multiplying a value by -3 to get -33, it would obviously be 11.

So in this case, you would want to add 18 to 11 to get Elise's number, which is 29. Subtracting 18 from 29 would get you back to the value of 11, which you can then multiply it by  -3 again to get -33.

Explain and Show the equation of line perpendicular to y=-1x+2 going through the point (6, 3)

Answers

Answer:

y = x-3 is the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

The general equation form of a straight line is;

y = mx + b

Fro the equation;

y = -1x + 2

The slope is -1

So the equation of the perpendicular line is as follows;

-1 * m = -1

m = 1

so we can use the point-slope equation form

That would be:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = 1(x-6)

y-3 = x-6

y = x-6+3

y = x-3

Which of the following has the least value?

A. 13/15
B. 7/8
C. 2/3
D. 3/4

(I also need the work if not its ok!)

Answers

Answer:

its c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

C. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we should come up with a common denominator first.

The least common denominator (LCD) of the four fractions would be 120.

So, first multiply each fraction's denominator to get 120, and multiply the numerator by the same amount.

ex. 3/4

4 x 30 = 120

3 x 30 = 90

We get 90/120.

After doing this with each fraction, we get;

13/15 = 104/120

7/8 = 105/120

2/3 = 80/120

3/4 = 90/120

Now, it is easier to see which fraction has the least value (or the one that is the smallest. Your answer is 2/3, since 80/120 is the smallest out of the four.

Carla believes that the number of hours of video games a student plays is predictive of the student's grade point average. Which value

represents a correlation coefficient that would strongly support Carla's belief?

Answers

Answer:

Negatively Correlated

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of video games played is likely to be negatively correlated to student's grade.

Negative correlation means that the variables deviate in opposite directions, one variable increase (decrease) & other variable decrease (increase).

As more video games played implies lower student grade, less video games played higher student grade. So, the variables are negatively correlated.

Whether the variables are strongly negatively correlated (correlation coefficient > 0.5) or weekly correlated (correlation coefficient < 0.5). It depends on how severely video games affect student's performance.
