Original Equation.

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

First do what is in the parenthesis.

2 x 1 = 2

2 - 8 = -6

5(-6) + 15 = -15

Multiply 5 x -6 to get -30

-30 + 15 = -15

add 15 + -30 to get -15

-15

x = 1

Hope This Helps!

X is 1.

first, you distribute the 5 into the parentheses.
 5(2x-8)+15=-15 becomes 10x-40+15=-15

then you calculate the sum
10x-40+15=-15 becomes 10x-25=-15

after that you move the constant to the right of the equal sign and change the sign (ex negative becomes positive number)
10x-25=-15 becomes 10x=-15+25

next, you add the constants
10x=-15+25 becomes 10x=10

lastly, you divide the numbers.
10x=10 becomes 1

so x=1

The quadrilaterals JKLM and PQRS are similar.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

x = 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadrilaterals are similar, then the ratios of corresponding sides will be equal:

KL : QR = 4 : 5.6 = 4 / 5.6 = 5/7

JM : PS = 7 : 9.8 = 7 / 9.8 = 5/7

LM : RS = 3 : 4.2 = 3 / 4.2 = 5/7

This shows that the ratio of KJ : QP = 5/7

KJ : QP = 2 : x = 2 / x

Therefore, \frac{2}{x}=\frac{5}{7}

cross multiply:  14 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5:  x = 2.8

A bird goes from a higher location to a lower location at a
hammer [34]

Answer:

30(-2) = -60

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in speed from a higher location to a lower location is 2 m/s, v = -2 m/s (from higher to lower)

We need to find the equation that models the change in the bird's position at 30 seconds.

Distance = speed × time

change in position = (-2) × 30

= -60

Hence, the correct option is (B).
