What value of x makes the equation -6x-20=-2x+4 (1-3×) true​

Mathematics
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x - 20 = -2x + 4 (1 - 3x)

Distributive property

-6x - 20 = -2x + 4  - 12x

Combine like terms

-6x - 20 = -14x + 4  

Add 14x to both sides

-6x - 20 + 14x = -14x + 4  + 14x

Simplifying

8x - 20 = 4

Add 20 to both sides

8x = 24

Divide both sides by 8

x = 3

Area of a Triangle
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

3.51 (round to the nearest hundreds)

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A

slope of the line passing through AC : (6-1)/(1-2) = 5/-1 = -5

equation of the line passing through B and perpendicular to AC:

y-3 = 1/5(x-3)

y-3 = 1/5x -3/5

y = 1/5 x - 3/5 + 3

y = 1/5 x + (-3+15)/5

y = 1/5 x + 12/5

PART B

line that passes through the points A and C

y-1 = -5(x-2)

y = -5x+10 + 1

y = -5x + 11

Interception of the lines

y = 1/5x + 12/5

y = -5x + 11

-5x + 11 = 1/5x + 12/5

-25x +55 = x + 12

26x = 43

x = 43/26

y = -5(43/26) + 11

y= -215/26 + 11

y = (-215+286)/26 = 71/26

D (1.65, 2.73)

PART C

AC = \sqrt{(1-2)^2 + (6-1)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 25} = \sqrt{26} = 5,09902

BD = \sqrt{(3-1.65)^2 + (3-2.73)^2} = 1,376735

PART D

AREA = (5,09902 * 1.376735)/2 = 3,509999

The table below shows the amount of lemon juice and sugar needed to make three different-sized batches of lemonade using the sam
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The equation is:

        j/g=5/2

Or, what is equivalent:

        j=5g/2

Explanation:

This is the<em> table</em> that <em>shows the amount of lemon juice and sugar needed to make three different-sized batches of lemonade using the same recipe</em>:

                        Lemon juice (mL)       Sugar (g)

Batch A               500                            200

Batch B                750                            300

Batch C              1500                            600

You need to write an <em>equation to describe the relationship between j, the amount of lemon juice in mL and s, the amount of sugar in g</em>.

Calculate some ratios, to determine the kind of relation between the amount of juice and the amount of sugar in the recipe.

  • Batch A: lemon juice / sugar = 500 / 200 = 5/2

  • Batch B: lemon juice / sugar = 750/300 = 5/2

  • Batch C:  lemon juice / sugar = 1500/600 = 5/2

Hence, the amount of juice, j, and the amound of sugar, s, are proportional and the constant of proportionality is 5/2. From this, the equation is:

        j/g=5/2

Or, what is equivalent (solving for j):

        j=5g/2

Solve, using the substitution method.
Lelechka [254]
Y - 2x = 8 . . . . (1)
16 + 4x = 2y . . (2)

From (1), y = 2x + 8 . . . (3)

Putting (3) into (2) gives
16 + 4x = 2(2x + 8) = 4x + 16
0 = 0

Therefore, there are infinite number of solutions.
