Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for x

2x+14=-21-5

2x+14=-26

subtract 14 from both sides

2x+(14-14)=-14-26

2x=-14-26

2x=-40

divide both sides of 2x = -40 by 2

$\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{-40}{2}$

2/2=1

x= $\frac{-40}{2}$

x= -20

Can someone please solve these questions

k0ka [10]

1)

=> m∠2 = 2x +13
=> m∠1 = 4x - 1
Since YP angle bisector the angles with be equal to each other,

m∠1 = m∠2
2x + 13 = 4x - 1
2x - 4x = -1 -13
-2x = -14
x = 7

All other questions are to be done in that way, don't be lazy :P

Find a set of parametric equations for y= 5x + 11, given the parameter t= 2 – x

Sati [7]

Answer:

$x = 2-t$ and $y = -5\cdot t +21$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that $y = 5\cdot x + 11$ and $t = 2-x$ , the parametric equations are obtained by algebraic means:

1) $t = 2-x$ Given

2) $y = 5\cdot x +11$ Given

3) $y = 5\cdot (x\cdot 1)+11$ Associative and modulative properties

4) $y = 5\cdot \left[(-1)^{-1} \cdot (-1)\right]\cdot x +11$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Commutative property

5) $y = [5\cdot (-1)^{-1}]\cdot [(-1)\cdot x]+11$ Associative property

6) $y = -5\cdot (-x)+11$ $\frac{a}{-b} = -\frac{a}{b}$ / $(-1)\cdot a = -a$

7) $y = -5\cdot (-x+0)+11$ Modulative property

8) $y = -5\cdot [-x + 2 + (-2)]+11$ Existence of additive inverse

9) $y = -5 \cdot [(2-x)+(-2)]+11$ Associative and commutative properties

10) $y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) + (-5)\cdot (-2) +11$ Distributive property

11) $y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) +21$ $(-a)\cdot (-b) = a\cdot b$

12) $y = (-5)\cdot t +21$ By 1)

13) $y = -5\cdot t +21$ $(-a)\cdot b = -a \cdot b$ /Result

14) $t+x = (2-x)+x$ Compatibility with addition

15) $t +(-t) +x = (2-x)+x +(-t)$ Compatibility with addition

16) $[t+(-t)]+x= 2 + [x+(-x)]+(-t)$ Associative property

17) $0+x = (2 + 0) +(-t)$ Associative property

18) $x = 2-t$ Associative and commutative properties/Definition of subtraction/Result

In consequence, the right answer is $x = 2-t$ and $y = -5\cdot t +21$ .

Answer:

1. Rolling a number less than 5

The numbers on a standard dice are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Therefore it is possible to roll a 6, but it is much more likely to be 1-5, simply because there are more of them.

2. Rolling a 2

Again, it is more likely that the result will be one of the other 5 numbers. But obviously a 2 is still an option, so it's not impossible.

3. Rolling a number less than 10

Every option is less than 10 so it is certain.
