Solve for x: (2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Reil [10]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5)

15*[(2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5)]   <em>[Multiply both sides by 15 in order to convert the fractions to whole numbers]</em>

(15/3)*2x +15*10 = (15/5)x + (15/5)*36

5*2x + 150 = 3x + 3*36

10x +150 = 3x + 108

7x = -42

x = -6

===

<u>Check:</u>

Does (2x/3) + 10 = (x/5) + (36/5) work for x = -6?

(2(-6)/3) + 10 = (-6/5) + (36/5) ?

-4 + 10 = (30/5) ?

6 = 6  YES

PLEASE PLEASE I SUCK AT MATH AND ITS ALL DUE FRIDAY PLEASE 10 piont !!! Select all the correct systems of equations.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

2x + y = 17

-6x = 3y - 51

Step-by-step explanation:

You get an infinite number of solutions when two equations are really just the same. This means you can convert one into the other simply by multiplying one to get the other.

In the above answer, if you multiply the above by -3 you get:

-6x -3y = -51

which is of course -6x = 3y - 51

So that is an example of a pair that has infinite solutions.

To find all of them, you'd carefully have to compare each 2 and see if there is a multiplier to convert one into the other. You can do that!

Find the equation of a parabola with a focus at (0,-1) and a directrix at y = 4.
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

  y = -1/10x^2 +2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from focus to directrix is twice the distance from focus to vertex. The focus-directrix distance is the difference in y-values:

  -1 -4 = -5

So, the distance from focus to vertex is p = -5/2 = -2.5. This places the focus 2.5 units below the vertex. Then the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, -1) +(0, 2.5) = (0, 1.5).

The scale factor of the parabola is 1/(4p) = 1/(4(-2.5)) = -1/10. Then the equation of the parabola is ...

  y = (1/(4p))(x -h) +k

  y = -1/10x^2 +2.5

_____

You can check the graph by making sure the focus and directrix are the same distance from the parabola everywhere. Of course, if the vertex is halfway between focus and directrix, the distances are the same there. Another point that is usually easy to check is the point on the parabola that is even with the focus. It should be as far from the focus as it is from the directrix. In this parabola, the focus is 5 units from the directrix, and we see the points on the parabola at y=-1 are 5 units from the focus.

You have that:

 1. By definition, a binomial is a polynomial formed by two terms. 
 2. A quintic binomial is a binomial of degree 5. This means that its highest exponent is 5.
 3. Keeping this on mind, you must identify which binomial has degree 5.
 4. As you can see, the expression <span>3x^5+2 is a binomial, because it has two terms and the highest degree is 5.
 5. Thefore, the answer is: </span>3x^5+2

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,-1) and is parallel and perpendicular to the line 2x+7y=14
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: Parallel: y=-2/7x-2 1/7 Perpendicular: y=7/2x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+7y=14

Subtract 2x from both sides.

7y=-2x+14

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate y.

y=-2/7x+2

Parallel:

Plug in x and y with same slope as the original.

-1=-2/7(-4)+b

Solve for b:

-1=8/7+b

-2 1/7=b

y=-2/7x-2 1/7

Perpendicular:

Plug in x and y with the negative inverse of the original slope.

-1=7/2(-4)+b

Solve for b.

-1=-28/2+b

-1=-14+b

13=b

y=7/2x+13
