Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we will have to open the bracket first

So let's solve the question

5(2x-8)+15=-15

Bracket first

10x-40+15=-15

We will have to solve the question further

10x-25=-15

Add 25 to both sides

10x=10

Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 10

x=1

Therefore x is 1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

Subtract 15 both sides

5(2x - 8) = -30

Divide both sides by 5

2x - 8 = -6

Add 8 both sides

2x = 2

Divide both sides by 2

x = 1

Describe when to use a series and when to use an equation.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

An equation is used when we have paired sets of data to describe how the values in one pair change when we alter the values in the other set.

On the other hand, a series gives a general formula of determining the value of the nth observation when the values have been arranged in increasing order

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation such as; y = 3x+5 models the relation between the response variable y and the predictor variable x. It tells us how y changes when x is altered by a certain magnitude. The value 3 is described as the slope while 5 is the y-intercept.

On the other hand, a series such as;  score = 2 + 3n provides a general formula that can be used to determine the score of the nth individual in a sample or population.

Regroup tens as hundreds
Andrew [12]
35 tens

tens = 10 ones = 0.1 hundreds

35 tens = 350 ones = 3.5 hundreds

So 35 tens = 3.5 hundreds

To do these problems, plug in a couple of values into the equations, and see the general shape of the graph. To ensure you were right, check them on an online graphing calculator. I highly recommend Desmos Graphing Calculator. Cheers!

A grocery store sells and 8 ounce bottle of juice for $1.76 What is the cost of the juice per ounce?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

$0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we know that 8 ounces total to $1.76. That means that in order to find how much 1 ounce costs, we will end up dividing both sides by 8

8 oz = $1.76

8 oz / 8 = $1.76 / 8

1 oz = $0.22

So, we now know that 1 oz  is equal to 22 cents. You can also confirm your answer by multiple 0.22 by 8, and you'll see that you'll get 1.76
