I want help with this equation -1 + x = 8x - 8

Mathematics

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we need to get x alone on one side of the equation.

Add one to each side of the equation.  Subtract 8x from each side of the equation.  Divide both sides by -7.  You should get 1 as the answer.

-1+x=8x-8\\x=8x-7\\-7x=-7\\x=1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First combine like terms from both sides, in this case moving the -8 to the left side and the x to the right side.

You do this by doing the opposite operation for the values.

Add 8 to both sides and cancel out -8.

-1 + x = 8x -8

+8             +8

Subtract x from both sides and cancel out x.

7 + x = 8x

   -x     -x

Then it looks like this.

7 = 7x

Divide by 7 on both sides

x = 1

Nata [24]

Answer:

The reflection image of (5, -3) across the line y = -x is (3, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the reflection equation by putting the value of x and y in the line given one by one.

The distance d, in meters, that a rhinoceros runs in s seconds is represented by the equation d=16s. What is the constant of pro
castortr0y [4]
Time          Distance                Distance / Time
2hrs          90 miles                  90 miles / 2 hrs =  45 miles / hr
3hrs          135 miles                135 miles / 3 hrs =  45 miles / hr
5hrs          225 miles                 225 miles / 5 hrs =  45 miles / hr
6hrs          270 miles                  270 miles / 6 hrs =  45 miles / hr

Constant of proportionality is 45 miles / hr. This is the same for the four values. The unit rate is also 45 miles / hr.

Let us assume the Distance , d is directly proportional to Time, t
d α t
d = kt 
Constant of proportionality is k which is D/T
d = 45t

Ancient paintings were found on cave walls in South America. The Carbon-14 in the paintings was measured and was found to be 19%
balu736 [363]

Answer: C. 13,839 (the answer is not among the given options, however the result is near this value)

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay model for Carbon- 14 is given by the followig formula:

A=A_{o}e^{-0.0001211.t}  (1)

Where:

A is the final amount of Carbon- 14  

A_{o}= is the initial amount of Carbon- 14

t is the time elapsed (the value we want to find)

On the other hand, we are told the current amount of Carbon-14 A  is 19\%=0.19, assuming the initial amount of Carbon-14 A_{o}= is  100\%:

A=0.19A_{o} (2)

This means: \frac{A}{A_{o}}=0.19 (2)

Now,finding t from (1):

\frac{A}{A_{o}}=e^{-0.0001211.t}  (3)

Applying natural logarithm on both sides:

ln(\frac{A}{A_{o}})=ln(e^{-0.0001211.t})  (4)

ln(0.19)=-0.0001211.t  (5)

t=\frac{ln(0.19)}{-0.0001211}  (6)

Finally:

t=13713.717years  This is the age of the paintings and the option that is nearest to this value is C. 13839 years
