Are the expressions –0.5(3x 5) and –1.5x 2.5 equivalent? explain why or why not.

1 answer:

6 0

No, the expressions –0.5(3x 5) and –1.5x 2.5 are not equivalent.

Using the distributive property to expand the first expression, you would get -1.5x - 2.5. Since the constant term does not have the same sign as the second expression, the two expressions are not equivalent.

Also, if you substitute in a value for x and evaluate each expression, the values will not be equal.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! How to solve the equations below |x−2|=x |x+1|=1−x

kumpel [21]

Answer:

x-2=x x=0

No Solution

x+1=1-x

Cancel 1 on both sides

Subtract −x from both sides

x+x=0

Simplify x +x to 2x

2x=0

x=0

Check Answer

x+1=1-x

0+1=1-0

1=1-0

What will the movement of a point which is on the surface of a circle touching the ground at the same time, if the circle turns

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

183.26cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of the Circle = 50cm

Let the point be at A

It turns forward 210 degrees to B.

Therefore, the central angle subtended by the arc AB = 210 degrees

The movement of the point from A to B will be the length of the arc AB.

$\text{Length of an arc }=\dfrac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi r \\$Therefore, the distance moved forward$\\=\dfrac{210}{360} \times 2\times\pi \times 50\\\\=183.26$ cm$
