-5(x-3)= -25

Mutiply the bracket by -5

-5(x)-5(-3)= -25

-5x+15= -25

Move + 15 to the other side. Sign changes from +15 to -15.

-5x+15-15= -25-15

-5x= -40

Divide by -5

-5x/-5= -40/-5

x= 8

Answer:

x =8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x-3)= -25

we apply distributive property

-5*x +5*3 =-25

-5x +15= -25

-5x = -25-15

-5x = -40

x = 40/5

x =8

Complete the equivalent equation for –7x – 60 = x2 + 10x.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x = -5

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x

add 7x to both sides

x^2 + 17x = -60

add 60 to both sides

x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0

factorise quadratic

(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0

x = -12

x = -12x = -5

Find the derivative of |x|/(x-1)

ki77a [65]

$\bf \cfrac{|x|}{x-1}\iff \cfrac{\sqrt{x^2}}{x-1}\iff \cfrac{(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{x-1}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the quotient rule}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{2}(x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}\cdot 2x(x-1)-(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot 1}{(x-1)^2}$

$\bf \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{\frac{x(x-1)-(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}}}{(x-1)^2}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{x(x-1)-(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{(x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}(x-1)^2}
\\\\\\\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{x(x-1)-|x|}{|x|(x-1)^2}$
