Answer:

x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out this equation, you need to remove 5 (which is a multiply as its multiplying by x) from the first side by dividing (divide as you do the opposite operation, divide is the opposite of multiply) it by the other.

x= 125 divided by 5

x=125/5

x=25

It's very easy, just try raising 5 to different powers until you get 125.
5^1 = 5
5^2 = 5*5 = 25
5^3 = 25*5 = 125
Ah, x is 3!

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

C=hypotenuse [h]=50 feet

A=[base]=40foot.

B=perpendicular [p]=?

Area =?

we have

By using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

B²=40²=50²

B²=50²-40²

B=√900

B=30feet

we have

Area of triangle =½×A×B=½×30×40=600feet²

the roped off area is 600 square feet.

it is a right angled triangle.

Which of the following is equivalent to the equation -5(3x -8 )= -45 ?

Elan Coil [88]

Distributive property is
a(b+c)=ab+ac so
first, distribute
remember than (-) times (-)=(+)
-5(3x-8)=(-5)(3x)+(-5)(-8)=-15x+(+40)=-15x+40

so it is -15x+40=-45

This is stupid I know lol but I'm having a hard time remembering the difference between a histogram and a bar graph. Can someone

Y_Kistochka [10]

In Bar Graphs;

- Bars have equal space

- One the y-axis, we have numbers & on the x-axis, we have data which can be anything.

In Histograms;

- Bars are fixed

- On the y-axis, we have numbers & and on the x-axis, we have data which in continuous & will always be number.

An easy way you can remember the difference is looking at the spaces of the bars.

A bar graph has gaps

A histogram has no gaps.
