Which is the correct first step in solving the inequality -4(2x-1)>5-3x algebraically?

The correct first step is to distribute the -4 into 2x - 1. This will result in -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x. Now, the next step is to solve for the equation. This results in:
-5x + 4 > 5
-5x > 1
x < -0.2
Hope this helps!

If a,b,c are all non-zero numbers and a+b+c=0, prove that
Butoxors [25]

<em>Given - a+b+c = 0</em>

<em>To prove that- </em>

<em>a²/bc + b²/ac + c²/ab = 3</em>

<em>Now we know that</em>

<em>when x+y+z = 0,</em>

<em>then x³+y³+z³ = 3xyz</em>

<em>that means</em>

<em> (x³+y³+z³)/xyz = 3 ---- eq 1)</em>

<em>Lets solve for LHS</em>

<em>LHS = a²/bc + b²/ac + c²/ab</em>

<em>we can write it as LHS = a³/abc + b³/abc + c</em><em>³</em><em>/abc</em>

<em>by multiplying missing denominators,</em>

<em>now take common abc from denominator and you'll get,</em>

<em>LHS = (a³+b³+c³)/abc --- eq (2)</em>

<em>Comparing one and two we can say that</em>

<em>(a³+b³+c³)/abc = 3</em>

<em>Hence proved,</em>

<em>a²/bc + b²/ac + c²/ab = 3</em>

Someone please help me with this​
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The area of the shaded figure is:

  • <u>20 units^2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the area of the shaded figure, first, you must calculate this as a rectangle, with the measurements: wide (4 units), and long (6 units):

  • Area of a rectangle = long * wide
  • Area of a rectangle = 6 * 4
  • Area of a rectangle = 24 units^2

How the figure isn't a rectangle, you must subtract the triangle on the top, so, now we calculate the area of that triangle with measurements: wide (4 units), and height (2 units):

  • Area of a triangle = \frac{wide*height}{2}
  • Area of a triangle = \frac{4*2}{2}
  • Area of a triangle =\frac{8}{2}
  • Area of a triangle = 4 units^2

In the end, you subtract the area of the triangle to the area of the rectangle, to obtain the area of the shaded figure:

  • Area of the shaded figure = Area of the rectangle - Area of the triangle
  • Area of the shaded figure = 24 units^2 - 4 units^2
  • <u>Area of the shaded figure = 20 units^2</u>

I use the name "units" because the exercise doesn't say if they are feet, inches, or another, but you can replace this in case you need it.

Elavter of using distuburting propties a. 17×102<br> b. 477×1035 -477×35​
V125BC [204]

Answer: a. 1734    b. 477000

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Distributive property : a(b+c)  = ab+ac

a. 17 x 102

=  17 (100+2)

= 17 x 100 + 17 x 2  [Distributive property ]

= 1700+34

= 1734

b. 477×1035 -477×35​

= 477 (1035-35)  [Distributive property ]

= 477 (1000)

= 477000

A rectangle is such that the length of 2 of each adjacent sides are in the ratio 1:3. A similar rectangle has 1 side of 6cm. Fin
Sliva [168]

Answer:

18 cm ;

2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of each adjacent side = 1 :3

If 1 side = 6 ; the possible values of the adjacent side ;

That is side 2 ÷

If side 1, which is 6cm is the ratio 1 ; then side 2 = 6cm * 3 = 18 cm

If side 1, which is 6cm is the ratio 3 ; then side 2 = 6cm / 3 = 2 cm

Hence, the two Possible values of the adjacent side = 18 cm or 2 cm

Find rhe volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 inches and a height of 20 inches
IrinaK [193]
Since the diameter of the cylinder is 10, its radius is half that, or 5, thus

\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\&#10;V=\pi r^2 h~~&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;r=radius\\&#10;h=height\\&#10;-----\\&#10;r=5\\&#10;h=20&#10;\end{cases}\implies V=\pi (5)^2(20)
