Answer: a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

      To solve, we will isolate the variable <em>a</em>.

Given:

2а + 20 = -3а - 5

Add 3a to both sides of the equation:

5а + 20 = - 5

Subtract 20 from both sides of the equation:

5а = 25

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

a = 5

Jeans are on sale for 20% off the regular price.
7nadin3 [17]

Keywords:

<em>Function, variable, total cost, percentage, jeans </em>

For this case we have a function of the formy = f (x), where f (x)represents the total cost of buying a pair of jeans, considering that they are 20% below the regular price given by the variable x.

So, if the pair of jeans costs x, we look for 20% of x.

x -----------> 100%

? -----------> 20%

Where "?" represents 20% of x. So, we have:

? = \frac {20 * x} {100}\\? = 0.2x

Thus, 0.2x represents the reduction of the total cost of the pair of jeans

Then, the function that gives the total cost of the pair of jeans, with a reduction of 20% is:

f (x) = x-0.2x

Answer:

f (x) = x-0.2x

Tan x + tan 2x = 0
choli [55]

stated method in question is wrong!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We need to find the general solution of x ! for the equation tan x + tan 2x = 0

⇒  tan x + tan 2x = 0

⇒  (tan x + tan 2x)-tan2x = 0-tan2x

⇒  tan x = -tan2x

Now , we know that tan(\pi -2x) = -tan2x

⇒  tan x = -tan2x

⇒  tan x = tan(\pi -2x)

Now , we know that TanA = TanB \\A=B

⇒  tan x = tan(\pi -2x)

⇒  x = \pi -2x

⇒  3x = \pi

⇒  x = \frac{\pi}{3}     ......(1)

General solution of Tan x is : x = n\pi + \alpha , \

Here , from equation (1) we get  \alpha =\frac{\pi }{3} . Hence general solution is :

⇒ x = n\pi +\frac{\pi }{3} .Therefore , stated method in question is wrong!
