5x+17=-23
Subtract 17 on both sides
5x=-40
Divide by 5 on both sides
X=-8
Double Check:
5(-8)+17=-23
-40+17=-23
-23=-23

Two pages that face each other in a book have 421 as the sum of their page numbers. What is the number of the page that comes fi
nordsb [41]

Answer:the pages will come on the first is  210

Explanation:

Since we have given that two pages that face each other in a book

i.e. they must be consecutive to each other

so, let the first page number be x

and the second page number be x+1

According to question,

x+x+1=421\\2x+1=421

2x=421 -1

2x=420

x=\frac{420}{2}\\=210

So, the pages will come on the first is  210

A farmer has 96 apples to sell at the farmers market. She wants to bag the apples before going. How many ways can the farmer bag
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer and explanation:

Farmer's number of apples = 96 apples

Given that Farmer needs to bag the apples so that there are at least 4 apples in each bag(not less than 4 apples in each bag) and not more than 10 apples in each bag

And also all apples in each bag are equal

We need to find the numbers between 4 and 10(including 4 and 10) that can divide 96 without a remainder

4 can divide 96= 24

5 cannot divide 96 without remainder

6 can divide 96 =16

7 cannot divide 96 without remainder

8 can divide 96=12

9 cannot divide 96 without remainder

10 cannot divide 96 without remainder

From the above we see that the factors of 96 = 4, 6, 8 between 4 and 10

4 apples = 24 bags

6 apples = 16 bags

8 apples = 12 bags

Therefore, there can be 3 possible ways of having equal number of apples in each bag between 4 and 10 apples

Are all sides of the right angle have sides that are parallel
nydimaria [60]

-- The two sides of a right <u>angle</u> intersect and make the angle.
So do the sides of any other angle. So they can't be parallel.

-- No two sides of a right <u>triangle</u> ... or any other triangle ...can be parallel.
