Is 5x+7=x-2 a one solution?

Mathematics

Answer:

Yes, it only has 1 solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to 5x+7=x-2 is -2 1/2, therefore, there is only 1 solution.

If you want to know how to get  -2 1/2, keep reading.

First, we must isolate the variable 'x.' To do so, we need to move all the x's to one side and all the constants or other terms to the other. First, lets move our x from the right side of the equal side to the right, and then our 7 from the left side to the right.

Remember, if you want to move a number to the other side of an equation, the neg./pos. signs have to change. If we move a positive 'x' to the other side, it will become negative. The same principle applies to the 7.

Let's swap them.

5x -x = -2 -7

Now we can simplify.

4x = -9

We're not done yet! we till have to fully isolate the 'x.' Now, we divide 4x by 4 to get rid of the 4. If we do something to one side, we have to do the same thing to the other. So, we need to divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = -9/4

x = -9/4

x = -2 1/2

Hope this was helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions. :)

5x-x=-2-7
4x=-9
x=2/3 or x=-2/3
Since there are 2 answers, it is not one solution.

Describe the relationship between two variables when the correlation coefficient r is one of the following. (a) near –1 strong
zepelin [54]

Answer:

a) strong negative linear correlation.

b) Weak or no linear correlation.

c) strong positive linear correlation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient r measures the strength and direction (positive or negative) of two variables. The correlation coefficient r is always between -1 and 1. When the coefficient r is negative then the direction of the correlation is downhill (negative) and when it's positive then it's an uphill correlation (positive). Similarly, as the coefficient is closer to -1 or 1 the correlation is stronger, with zero being a non linear relationship.

Now back to the question:

a) Near -1: as we said before, this means an strong negative (-1) linear correlation.

b) Near 0: weak or no linear correlation (we cannot say if its positive or negative because we don't know it it's near zero from the right (positive numbers) or the left (negative numbers)

c) Near 1: strong positive (close to +1) linear correlation
