A) -9

-7(x+9)=9(x-5)-14x
-7x-63=9x-45-14x
-45 -45
-7x-18=9x-14x
+7x +7x
-18=9x+7x-14x
-18=2x
(-18)/2=(2x)/2
-9=x

-7(x + 9) = 9(x - 5) - 14x → Given
-7x - 63 = 9x - 45 - 14x → Distributive Property
-7x - 63 = -5x - 45 → Combine like terms (9x and -14x)
-12x - 63 = -45 → Addition property of equality (-7x and -5x)
-12x = 18 → Addition property of equality (Add 63 to both sides)
x = -³/₂ or -1 ¹/₂ or -1.5

Hope it helps.

Can yoy please help solve yhis problem.2/5b+1=11

shusha [124]

Answer:

(2/5)*b+1 = -11 // + 11

(2/5)*b+1+11 = 0

2/5*b+12 = 0 // - 12

2/5*b = -12 // : 2/5

b = -12/2/5

b = -30

1 point) Use Stoke's Theorem to evaluate ∫CF⋅dr∫CF⋅dr where F(x,y,z)=xi+yj+1(x2+y2)kF(x,y,z)=xi+yj+1(x2+y2)k and CC is the bound

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking process:

$\int\limits^a_b {cF} \, .dr$

= $\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx \int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx curlFdS$ by Stoke's Theorem

= $\int\limits^a_b {} \, \int\limits^a_b {} \, < 12y, -12x, 0 > .< z_x,-z_y, 1 > dA\\= \int\limits^a_b {} \, \int\limits^a_b {} \, < 12y, -12x, 0 > .< 2x, 2y, 1 > dA$ since z = $25-x^{2} -y^{2} \\= 0$
