Answer:
x = ±4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out quadratic
2x² - 5 = 27
Step 2: Add 5 to both sides
2x² = 32
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2
x² = 16
Step 4: Take the square root of both sides
x = ±4
∴ x can equal -4 or 4
The answer should be 6 units. -1 > 0 > 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 5 : 6 units
14. (n-5)*4+7
15. No, this would not be neccesary because if I were to distribute 1/2 to both 4 and 6, I know that I would get half of those numbers which would give me 2x+3. I also know that if I distribute 1/3 to both 9 and 24, I would get 1/3 of each number which would be 3 and 8.
Answer:
70 and 71
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive means in a row
x is the first number
x+1 is the next number
x+ x+1 = 141
Combine like terms
2x+1 =141
Subtract 1 from each side
2x+1-1=141-1
2x= 140
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 =140/2
x = 70
The two lockers are 70,71
Because there are 10 areas in total and only 4 of them are shaded, then 4/10 are shaded, and .4 is another way to represent this, so the first choice
Hope this helps
