Answer:

x=0.875

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-6=2-5x

Add 6 on both sides (6+2)

2x=8-5x

Add 5x on both sides

7x=8

Divide 7 from both sides

x=0.875

A pie has been in the oven for some number of minutes. it needs to bake for a total of 60 minutes. for how many more minutes mus

Lesechka [4]

The pie must stay for 60 - x more minutes must the pie bake

<h3>For how many more minutes must the pie bake?</h3>

Let the amount of time spent in the oven be x

So, we have

Total amount of time = 60 minutes

This means that

Remaining time + Amount of time spent = 60

This gives

Remaining time + x = 60

Evaluate

Remaining time = 60 - x

Hence, the pie must stay for 60 - x more minutes must the pie bake

I need help finding the first five terms of the following explicit formula and the sequence

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Explicit formula of the sequence,

$A_n=59+11n$

$A_1=59+11(1)$

$A_1=70$

$A_2=59+11(2)$

$A_2=81$

$A_3=59+11(3)$

$A_3=92$

$A_4=59+11(4)$

$A_4=103$

$A_5=59+11(5)$

$A_5=114$

A rectangle has vertices (8, 6), (4, 6), (8, −4), and (4, −4). What are the coordinates after dilating from the origin by a scal

Mama L [17]

Answer: (12,9), (6,9), (12,-6) and (6,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The coordinates of the original rectangle are (8, 6), (4, 6), (8, −4), and (4, −4). We know that the coordinates of the image after dilation from the origin by a scale factor of k is given by:_

$(xy)\rightarrow(kx,ky)$

Then, the coordinates of the image after dilation from the origin by a scale factor of 1.5 are given by:_

(8, 6)→ $(8\times1.5,6\times1.5)=(12,9)$

(4, 6)→ $(4\times1.5,6\times1.5)=(6,9)$

(8, −4) → $(8\times1.5,-4\times1.5)=(12,-6)$

(4, −4)→ $(4\times1.5,-4\times1.5)=(6,-6)$

Hence, the coordinates of the image after dilation from the origin by a scale factor of 1.5 are (12,9), (6,9), (12,-6) and (6,-6).
