Mathematics

Temka [501]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to write the equation. I came up with....

3(5 - x) = 30

so take the 3 away from the 30. I think your not supose to do the 3 because it out of the ( ). the opppisite of multiplication is division. so...

3 divided by 30 =10

rewrite

(5 - x) = 10

take the 5 away. the oppisite of subbtraction is addition.

5 + 10 = 15

check your; plug in x

3(5 - 15) = 30  This equation looks true!

Show that the statement is true. If GH has endpoints G(−2, 1) and H(4, −1), then the midpoint M of GH lies on the line y = −x +
Alex777 [14]
Midpoint = (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2)/2
(-2,1)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 1
(4,-1)...x2 = 4 and y2 = -1
time to sub
m = (-2 + 4) / 2 , (1 + (-1) / 2
m = (2/2), (0/2)
m = (1,0) <==

y = -x + 1.....(1,0)...x = 1 and y = 0
0 = -1 + 1
0 = 0 (correct)

so the midpoint  M (1,0) lies on the line since its coordinates satisfy the equation <===

The measures of two angles of a triangle are 61 and 84 degrees. Find the measure of the third angle.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The measure of the third angle is 35°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the three angles of a triangle is always 180°.

Let the measure of the third angle be x.

∴ 61° + 84° + x = 180°

           145 + x =180°

                    x = 180 - 145

                    x = 35°

your phone says that 14.5% is equivalent to the decimal 14.5 explain why your friend is incorrect by comparing the fraction -14.
Lelechka [254]
A percent is a proportion of something that can come from a variety of different numbers depending on what you are measuring. 14.5% is not the same as 14.5 because the 14.5% isn’t necessarily 14.5 of a certain amount. For example, $14.50 of the $100 you have could be from your grandparents; making 14.5% of your money from your grandparents but a deposit of $145 into a bank account that already has $855 would mean that 14.5% of the money in that bank account was from that deposit but $145 does not equal $14.50. They just have the same proportion just different on different scales.

Hope this is what you were looking for.
