Hello!

Answer:

$\boxed{x=4}$

The answer should have a positive sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you do is expand.

5(x-10)=5x-50

5x-50=30-15x

Then add by 50 both sides of an equation.

5x-50+50=30-15x+50

Simplify.

5x=-15x+80

Next add 15x both sides of an equation.

5x+15=-15x+80+15x

Simplify.

20x=80

Divide by 20 both sides of an equation.

20x/20=80/20

Simplify and solve.

80/20=4

$\boxed{x=4}$ , which is our final answer.

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

Thanks!

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation has 3 terms. Divide all of them by 5 to simplify the equation.

We get:

x - 10 = 6 - 3x

Combining the x terms, we get 4x - 10 = 6, or 4x = 16, or x = 4.

What is the domain of f(x)=3^x

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential function. These types of functions have asymtotes. Asymtotes are when x or y is approaching a specific value, but it's not touching it. If you put your function in a graphing calculator, you will find that the y is approaching 0, but it's not quite touching it. What we're looking for, however is domain (x), and there are no asymtotes for x because as you can see, every value on the x axis has a y point. Therefore the domain is all real numbers.

So we have 2 variables here: tacos and orders of nachos.

When we translate the paragraphs into equation: $28t + 27n = 114.80 \\ \\ 12t + 3n = 37.20$

Now, in this situation we can make use the elimination method by converting 3n to -27n.

$- 108t - 27n = - 334.8$

Add both equations: $28t + 27n - 108t - 27n = 114.8 - 334.8 \\ \\ - 80t = - 220 \\ \\ t = 2.75$

So we find that one taco costs $2.75.

We can plug this into any of the first two equations to find n: $12 \times 2.75 + 3n = 37.2 \\ \\ 33 + 3n = 37.2 \\ \\ 3n = 4.2 \\ \\ n = 1.4$

So one order of nachos cost $1.40.
