Answer:

x = 76

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to solve for x you need to isolate it. So try to get rid of everything on the left side of the equation in order to isolate x.

First, in order to get rid of the 4, you want to want to divide the left side by -4. This cancels out the 4.

If you divide the left side then you have to divide the right side. (Whatever you do to one side of the equation you must do to the other side)

-4(x - 26) = -200

[-4(x-26) ] / 4 =[ -200] / 4

x -26 = -200/-4

x - 26 = 50

Then you need to add the 26 to cancel it out in order to isolate x, (you have to do the opposite operation in order to cancel it out) .

x -26 + 26 = 50 + 26

x = 76

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

–4(x – 26) = –200

–4x + 104 = –200

       –104     –104

          –4x/–4 = –304/–4

               x = 76

masha68 [24]

Valdez Company opened a special checking account. The charge for each check written was either $.55 or a $6-a-month minimum service charge (whichever is greater). At the beginning of the month, the company checkbook balance was $695.18. Valdez Company wrote 14 checks totaling $312.88. Deposits of $188.10 and $195.10 were made during the month. What's Valdez's checkbook balance to start the next month (including the cost of check writing)?

An observer (O) spots a plane (P) taking off from a local airport and flying at a 33° angle horizontal to her line of sight and
docker41 [41]

Answer:

the distance of the Bird (B) from the plane (P)  is = 10779  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

a diagrammatic representation is attached below for better understanding and solution to the question.

From the diagram;

Let the Bird (B) be represent as A

The plane (P) be represented by B

The observer be represented by O

and the tower T be represented by C

we will see that:

\overline {AB}  \ \| \ \overline {OC}

Also;

\angle ABO = \angle BOC = 33^0

AO = BC = 7000

Let consider the trigonometry of  triangle BAO

tan θ = opposite/adjacent

tan 33° = 7000/x

0.6494 = 7000/x

x = 7000/0.6494

x = 10779.18

x = 10779  ft    ( to the nearest whole number)

Thus; the distance of the Bird (B) from the plane (P)  is = 10779  ft

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

204

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the inner square. 14 x 14 = 196

Then find the area of the outer square. 20 x 20 = 400

Subtract 400 - 196 = 204

204 is closest to 200

What is the slope intercept form of an equation that goes through (-3,-5) and slope is 3/7
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: y−7=34(x−3)

Slope intercept form: y=34x+194..or..y=34x+434

Explanation:

Since you have one point and the slope, you can use the point slope formula, then solve for y to get the slope intercept form, so that you can determine the y-intercept (b). Then you can graph the resulting equation.

Point slope formula

y−y1=m(x−x1), where x1,y1=(3,7), and m=34 is the slope.

Substitute the given values into the formula.
