Solve for u.
|5u + 15| = 10

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1 and -5

Step-by-step explanation:

You must account for negative u values (which the abs nullifies).

So [tex]5u+15=10[/tex] and [tex]5u+15=-10[/tex] is what we have to solve for.

As for usual equations, isolate the u variable.

5u + 15 = 10

5u + 15 (-15) = 10 (-15)

5u = -5

[tex]\frac{5u}{5}=\frac{-5}{1}[/tex]

u = -1

Now you can do the same operation for the other equation and you should get u = -5.

Let's make sure we did it right by replacing u with one of our solutions (-1 or -5).

[tex]|5(-1)+15| = 10\\10 = 10[/tex]

That's true. What about the other one?

[tex]|5(-5)+15|=10\\10=10[/tex]

Solve for g.
-3+5+ 6g=11-3g

Answers

Answer:

g=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would combine like terms and get 2+6g=11-3g

Then add 3g to both sides and get 2+9g=11

Then subtract 2 from both sides and get 9g=9

Lastly divide both sides by 9 and get g=1

Answer: g = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Add/subtract the numbers: -3 + 5 = 2

6g + 2 = 11 - 3g

Subtract 2 from both sides

6g + 2 -2 = 11 - 3g - 2

simplify

6g - -3g + 9

Add 3g to both sides

6g + 3g = -3g + 9 + 3g

simplify

9g = 9

Divide both sides by 9

[tex]\frac{9g}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{9}[/tex]

simplify

g = 1

Tela bought a backpack for $34.99 and 3 notebooks for $1.89 each. What is the total price, including a 8% sales tax?
O $41.87
0 $40.66
O $38.77
0 $43.91

Answers

Answer:

$43.91

Step-by-step explanation:

=34.99 + 3(1.89)

=40.66

[tex] = 40.66 \times \frac{108}{100} [/tex]

= 43.91

or

[tex]40.66 \times \frac{8}{100} [/tex]

= 3.25

then 40.66 + 3.25 = 43.91

Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

34.99 = 1 backpack

1.89(3) = 5.67

34.99 + 5.67 = 40.66

40.66(.08) = 3.2528

40.66 + 3.25 = 43.91

5. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 3(x)+3(7)=3x+21

3. 5(x)+5(-4)+3= 5x-20+3=5x-17

4. 3x(x)+3x(4)=3x²+12x

5. 3(10)-12=30-12=18

Answer:

1.) -2x + 24

2.) 3x + 21

3.) 5x - 17

4.) 15x

5.) 18

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) The first step to simplify this equation is to combine like terms. Also remember to always keep the sign before the number/variable to use when combining like terms.  

3x + 14 - 5x + 10

3x - 5x + 14 + 10

   -2x + 24

2.) Use distributive property to distribute the 3 to x and 7. Keep the sign.

3(x + 7)

3x + 21

3.) Use distributive property to distribute the 5 to x and 4 then add three. Keep the signs. Combine like terms.

5(x - 4) + 3

5x - 20 + 3

5x - 17

4.) Once again, use distributive property to distribute the 3x to x and 4. When multiplying 3x times x just think of x with a 1 in front of it (1x) and just multiply 3 times 1. Carry the x when multiplying 4x times 4. Combine like terms.

3x (x + 4)

3x + 12x

15x

5.) All you have to do is replace x in "3x" and solve.

Atul has 2/3 lb of candy. Jose has 3/5 lb and Maria has 1/2 lb less then José. How many more pounds of candy does Atul have than Maria? (Show your work please!)

Answers

Given:

Atul has [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] lb of candy.

Jose has [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex] lb of candy.

Maria has [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] lb less than Jose.

To find:

How many more pounds of candy does Atul have than Maria?

Solution:

Since, Maria has [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] lb less than Jose, therefore

Maria has = [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] lb

Maria has = [tex]\dfrac{6-5}{10}[/tex] lb

Maria has = [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex] lb

Difference between the candies Atul and Maria have.

Difference = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex] lb

Difference = [tex]\dfrac{20-3}{30}[/tex] lb

Difference = [tex]\dfrac{17}{30}[/tex] lb

Therefore,  Atul have [tex]\dfrac{17}{30}[/tex] lb of candy more than Maria.

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2 + 7(x + 8)

The student made the error of adding before multiplying, that is

- 2 + 7 = 5 , then multiplying (x + 8) by 5

However, multiplication is performed before addition/ subtraction, thus

- 2 + 7(x + 8) ← distribute by 7

= - 2 + 7x + 56 ← collect like terms

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the given exponent expression (-5)⁻³ is -0.008.

What is an exponent?

The exponent of a number represents the total time required to multiply that number. 8 8 8 may be stated as 83 since 8 is multiplied by itself three times. In this case, 3 is the 'exponent' or 'power' that indicates how many times 8 is multiplied by itself, and 8 is the 'base' that represents the integer being multiplied.

The exponent is given as:

(-5)⁻³

To find the value of (-5)⁻³, we need to raise -5 to the power of -3, which is equivalent to finding the reciprocal of (-5)⁻³.

(-5)⁻³ = (-5) × (-5) × (-5) = -125

The reciprocal of -125 is -1/125, so the value of (-5)⁻³ is -1/125 = -0.008.

Since -5 is negative, the value of (-5)⁻³ will also be negative, so the answer is -0.008.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplificando

7x + -1 [4x + -3 (x + -1)] = x + 12

Reordenar los términos:

7x + -1 [4x + -3 (-1 + x)] = x + 12

7x + -1 [4x + (-1 * -3 + x * -3)] = x + 12

7x + -1 [4x + (3 + -3x)] = x + 12

Reordenar los términos:

7x + -1 [3 + 4x + -3x] = x + 12

Combinar términos semejantes: 4x + -3x = 1x

7x + -1 [3 + 1x] = x + 12

7x + [3 * -1 + 1x * -1] = x + 12

7x + [-3 + -1x] = x + 12

Reordenar los términos:

-3 + 7x + -1x = x + 12

Combinar términos semejantes: 7x + -1x = 6x

-3 + 6x = x + 12

Reordenar los términos:

-3 + 6x = 12 + x

Resolviendo

-3 + 6x = 12 + x

Resolviendo para la variable 'x'.

Mueva todos los términos que contengan x hacia la izquierda, todos los demás términos hacia la derecha.

Agrega '-1x' a cada lado de la ecuación.

-3 + 6x + -1x = 12 + x + -1x

Combinar términos semejantes: 6x + -1x = 5x

-3 + 5x = 12 + x + -1x

Combinar términos semejantes: x + -1x = 0

-3 + 5x = 12 + 0

-3 + 5x = 12

Agrega '3' a cada lado de la ecuación.

-3 + 3 + 5x = 12 + 3

Combinar términos semejantes: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + 5x = 12 + 3

5 veces = 12 + 3

Combinar términos semejantes: 12 + 3 = 15
