If you would like to solve the equation -5x - 25 = 78, you should do this using the following steps:

<span>-5x - 25 = 78
</span>-5x - 25 + 25 = 78 + 25
-5x + 0 = 103
-5x = 103 /(-5)
x = 103 / (-5)
x = - 103/5 = - 20.6

The error was already made at step 1.

A pond is being drained by a pump. After 3 hours, the pond is half empty. A second pump is put into operation and together the t
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The first pump empties half the pond in 3 hours, so in 1/6 that time (1/2 hour), it empties (1/6)·(1/2) = 1/12 of the pond.

The second pump empties the other 5/12 of the pond in that half hour, so has a pumping rate of (1/2 h)/(5/12 pond) = (6/5 h)/pond.

The second pump could do the entire job alone in 1 hour and 12 minutes.

A plane is approaching an aircraft carrier at 25° angle of elevation from 3.2 miles away how far above sea level is the plane
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Height\approx 1.35\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation=25\textdegree

It is 3.2\ miles away from the point.

If we imagine a right  triangle having an angle 25\textdegree.

Hypotenuse=3.2, Opposite=Height from sea level(h)

\sin 25=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\\sin 25=\frac{h}{3.2}\\\\h=3.2\times \sin 25\\\\h=3.2\times 0.4226\\\\h=1.3524\approx 1.35\ miles

Answer:

Lowest is 100

Highest is 125

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the 5 number summary to be the foundation of a graphical representation referred to as the box plot. One box would move from one quartile which is the lowest quartile Q1 to the another quartile Q3 which is the upper quartile.

Now if a box plot is to be made given the the information in this question, the box is going to go from Quartile 1 to Quartile 3.

Then the Lowest value would be 100 and the highest 125
