What is the variable x in 40+10x=5x-30

Mathematics
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
4 0

40 + 10x = 5x - 30

To begin isolating x, subtract 40 from both sides.

40 + 10x - 40 = 5x - 30 - 40

10x = 5x - 70

Subtract 5x from both sides.

10x - 5x= 5x - 70 - 5x

5x = -70

Finally, divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 = -70/5

x = -14

Answer:

x = -14

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

This is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

If this is true it is a right triangle

5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

25+144 = 169

169 =169

This is true so this is a right triangle

Casey is six times as old as Ralph. In two years, she will be four times as old as Ralph. How old is each of them now?
lisov135 [29]

Ralph is 3 years old

Casey is 18 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Ralph be x

Then Casey is 6 times as old as Ralph will be 6x

In two years

Ralph =x+2

Casey=6x+2 ⇒ 4(x+2)

Equate the two equations for Casey as

6x+2 = 4x+8

6x-4x=8-2

2x=6

x=6/2= 3

Current age;

Ralph= x= 3 years old

Casey=6x = 6*3= 18 years

N76 [4]

Answer:

1/4, 3/5, 8/10

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 is greater than 1/4

(2/4 is equal to 2.5/5---that should give you a visual picture why)  

8/10 is greater than 3/5

3/5 multipled by 2 is 6/10

so, 6/10<8/10
