Answer:

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

X + (2 and 1/2) - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4

X + 2 and 2/4  - 3/4 = 5 and 1/4  <--- common denominator

X + 10/4 - 3/4 = 21/4

X + 7/4 = 21/4

X = 21/4 - 7/4 = 14/4 = 7/2 = 3 and 1/2

Need help on this one
ivolga24 [154]
If a triangle has side lengths 5, 5, and 8, then the triangle should be classified as isosceles.

This is because an isosceles triangle has two sides of the same length and one side of a different length. This isn’t an equilateral triangle (where all sides are of equal length) or a scalene triangle (where all sides are of different lengths).

Hope this helps!

mario62 [17]

Answer: |81-x|<5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F.

Temperature in the enclosure should not vary by more than 5° F.

Let x= Temperature in the enclosure

Then, difference between average and current temperature should less the 5.

i.e. |81-x|<5     (required absolute value equation  )

hence, the absolute value equation could be used to determine the minimum and maximum temperatures recommended for the corn snake enclosure:

|81-x|<5
