How do I solve 5x-2=8

Geography

So you have 5x-2=8
To get rid of the 2 you have to add 2 to both sides like this:
2+5x=8+2 then you add 8+2 that equals 10.
add 2 to 5x and you get 7x, your problem should look like this:
7x=10
then you divide 7 on both sides and you get x = 1.42

13. You budget $100 for parking each month. Each day you use the downtown
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

t = 100 - 5n : rule for amount of money left.

You will have $45 left after using downtown parking 11 times.

Explanation:

The equation for an arithmetic sequence in this case is t = a + dn.

a is the initial value, d is the rate of change, and n is the independent variable.

t is the dependent variable.

In this context, a is the starting budget for parking, d is the amount parking costs each time, n is the number of times you use the parking and t is the amount of money left after each time you use the parking.

Substitute the known values from the problem into the equation.

t = a + dn

t = 100 + (-5)n   <= the rate of change is -5 because it's decreasing

t = 100 - 5n

To find the amount of money left after 11 times using downtown parking, substitute n for 11.

t = 100 - 5n

t = 100 - 5(11)

t = 100 - 55

t = 45

You will have $45 left after 11 times parking downtown.

What is the distance between (0,-8) and (3,2)
DerKrebs [107]

Answer: \Large\boxed{Distance=\sqrt{109}}

Explanation:

<u>Given information</u>

(x₁, y₁) = (0, -8)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, 2)

<u>Given the distance formula</u>

Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

<u>Substitute values into the given formula</u>

Distance=\sqrt{(3-0)^2+(2-(-8))^2}

<u>Simplify values in the parenthesis</u>

Distance=\sqrt{(3)^2+(2+8)^2}

Distance=\sqrt{(3)^2+(10)^2}

<u />

<u>Simplify the exponents</u>

Distance=\sqrt{9+100

<u>Simplify by addition</u>

\Large\boxed{Distance=\sqrt{109}}

Hope this helps!! :)
