7-4x= 31

Bring over 7 to the other side

Positive 7 changes into negative 7

7-7-4x= 31-7

-4x= 24

Divide by -4 for -4x and 24

-4x/-4= 24/-4

x= -6

Check answer by using substitution method

7-4x= 31

7-4(-6)= 31

7+24= 31

31= 31

Answer : C. x= -6

Answer:

C. x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 7 from both sides:

7 - 4x = 31

7 (-7) - 4x = 31 (-7)

-4x = 31 - 7

-4x = 24

Divide -4 from both sides to isolate the variable, x:

(-4x)/-4 = (24)/-4

x = 24/-4

x = -6

x = -6, or C. is your answer.

What is the length of the hypotenuse? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
artcher [175]

Answer:

17 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorm is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

In this problem we can call 8 km a and 15 km b.

Plug 8 and 15 into the pythagorean theorm to get 8^2 + 15^2 = c^2

This will give you 289=c^2

Take the square root of both sides to get c=17

Hope this helps!

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

m = $6.5

s = $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Raul ordered 1 small photo enlargement and 4 medium photo enlargements for $29. Patricia ordered 5 small photo enlargements and 2 medium photo enlargments for $28. determine the price of the small photo enlargements and medium photo enlargments

two equations can be derived from the question

s + 4m  = 29 equation 1

5s + 2m = 28 equation 2

where

s = small photo enlargements

m = medium photo enlargements

multiply equation 1 by 5

5s + 20m = 145 equation 3

subtract equation 2 from 3

18m = 117

m = 6.5

substitute for m in equation 1

s = 29 - (4 x 6.5)

s = 3
