Hi there!

Your question:

8.5 + 49(1-2.5k)=24.5

My answer:

8.5 + 4(1-2.5k) = 24.5 >>>>>>> first, you have to distribute

8.5 + 4 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>>>> now, we are going to combine like terms.

12.5 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>> now, we are going to subtract 12.5 on both sides

-10k = 12 >>>>>>>>> finally, divide -10 on both sides

k = -1.2

Hope this helps you!

Your Problem:
8.5+4(1-2.5k)=24.5
1st step: subtract 8.5 from both sides
4(1-2.5k)=24.5-8.5
4(1-2.5k)=16
2nd step: Divide both sides by 4
(1-2.5k)=16/4
(1-2.5k)=4
3rd step: Opening up the parentheses
1-2.5k=4
4th step: Subtract 1 from both sides
-2.5k=4-1
-2.5k=3
4ht step: divide both sides by -2.5
k=-1.2

What is the root? <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3-%20%5Csqrt%7Bx%7D%20%3D0%20" id="TexFormula1" title="3- \sqrt{x} =0 "

To solve for x, add 3 to both sides, multiply both sides by -1, then take the square both sides.
$3- \sqrt{x} =0\\- \sqrt{x} =-3 \\ \sqrt{x} =3 \\ x=3^2=9$

It always confuses me when they make me do the baby steps

A. Alright, we want to multiply one equation by a constant to make it cancel out with the second. Since the first equation has a "blank" y, let's multiply the first equation by 2.

3x-y=0 → 2(3x-y=0) = 6x - 2y = 0

5x+2y=22

The answer for this part would be: 6x - 2y = 0 and 5x + 2y = 22

B. So now we combine them:

6x - 2y = 0

+ + +

5x + 2y = 22

= = =

11x + 0 = 22 ← The answer

C. Now that we have the equation 11x = 22, we solve for x

11x = 22 ← Divide both sides by 11

x = 2 ← The answer

D. Now that we have x=2, we plug that back in to 5x+2y=22 and solve for y:

5(2)+2y = 22

10 + 2y = 22

2y = 12

y = 6

Therefore, the solution to this problem is x = 2 and y = 6

Please help me.

Since they are similar both dimensions would have the same ratio. The ratio of 5 and 15 is 3. 15 is 3 times larger than 5, so the unknown dimension is 3 times larger than the known dimension.

3 x 10 = 30

The unknown dimension is 30

Please help #12 10 points

eimsori [14]

1. add 40 to the 40 and 25
2. now you have
$\frac{5x {}^{2} }{5} = \frac{65}{5}$
3. then you have
${x}^{2} = 13$
4. then square root
${x}^{2} = 13$
5.then round answer to nearest tenth which is
$x = 3.61$
