We are to solve this for x:   <span>1.8-3.7x=-4.2x+0.3

Combine like terms.  First, add 4.2x to both sides.  This results in 1.8+0.5x = 0.3, and then 0.5x = 0.3-1.8.

Next, 0.05x = -1.5, or 5x = -150, and x = -30. 

Must check this result by substitution of -30 for x in the original equation.

Is  </span><span>1.8-3.7(-30)=-4.2(-30)+0.3 true or false?</span>

Answer:

The answer is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

add -4.2 to -3.7 to get 0.5, then subtract 1.8 by 0.3 to get 1.5 on the other side. then you divide 1.5 by 0.5 to get 3. Hope this helps and have a good day!:)

Jennifer went to the post office for stamps. She bought the same number of 8-cent stamps and 10-cent stamps. She also bought as
mamaluj [8]
Write it out as a set of equation:
Let x be number of 8 cent stamps, y be 10 cent stamps, and z be 2 cent stamps.
x=y
z=x+y
8x+10y+2z=440
Lets first solve for x:
from x=y and z=2x(from first equation) the last equation is
8x+10x+4x=440
22x=440
x=20
know that x=20, you also know that y=20 as well, since z=x+y, z=40.
So 20 8-cent stamps, 20 10-cent stamps, and 40 2-cent stamps.

Answer:

20.04 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows right triangle ABC. Use the definition of the cosine:

\cos \angle C=\dfrac{\text{Adjacent leg}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\ \\\cos \angle C=\dfrac{BC}{AC}\\ \\\cos 51^{\circ}=\dfrac{BC}{27}\\ \\BC=27\cdot \cos 51^{\circ}\\ \\BC\approx 20.04\ units

Kiran scored 223 fewer points in a computer game than Tyler. Kiran scored 409 points. Which equation would Kiran use to determin
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The equation is:

409 = T - 223

And the solution is:

T = 632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Kiran with K and Tyler with T

Kiran score is represented as:

K = 409

Also, Kiran scored 223 less than Tyler.

This is represented as:

K = T - 223

Substitute 409 for K

409 = T - 223

Make T the subject

T = 409 +223

T = 632

Allisa [31]
Hi there!

f(x) = x + 5

1. y = x + 5
Switch places from x and y.

2. x = y + 5
Subtract 5.

3. x - 5 = y
Switch sides.

4. y = x – 5
Now we've found our answer.
