The solution of the equation is
6x - 3 = -51
6x = -51 + 3
6x = -48
—————
X = -8
The solution is -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x - 3 = -51?\\To - find-x- collect-like-terms.\\6x=-51+3\\6x =-48\\Divide-both-sides-of-the-equation-by-6\\\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{-48}{6} \\x = -8$

Katen [24]

Teacher will have 3 bottles of glue after he combines

Solution:

Given that,

The art teacher has 7 bottles of glue that are each 2/5 full

He combines them so he will have fewer bottles

To find: bottles of glue does he have after he combines them

From given,

Total bottles = 7

Each is 2/5 full

Therefore, multiply 7 with 2/5 to get total bottles of glues he will have after combining

$Number\ of\ bottles\ of\ glues = 7 \times \frac{2}{5}\\\\Number\ of\ bottles\ of\ glues = \frac{14}{5} = 2.8 \approx 3$

Thus teacher will have 3 bottles of glue after he combines

A triangle has two sides of length 15 cm and 17 cm. Select all the values of its third side that would make it a right triangle

Natali [406]

Answer:

$\sqrt{514} cm$ , 8cm, are both options

Step-by-step explanation:

For a right triangle one can find the length of the longest side by using the Pythagorean theorem. So there are two options I can think of that if the triangle is a right triangle will work. First remember what the Pythagorean theorem is : side a^2+side b^2=hypotenuse^2

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle. So if the sides that are 15 and 17 cm are not the longest sides then the formula would be:

$15^{2} +17^2=c^2\\15^2+17^2=\sqrt{514}cm$
