For the line y = 2/5x, if the y-coordinate is 20, what is the x-coordinate? A. 5/2 B. 50 C. 125 D. 8

Ok here is how you do this:
you need to replace y with 20 and then solve to find x, i.e. solve this equation
20=2/5x

1. Simplify 2/5x to 2x/5
   20=2x/5

2. Multiply both sides by 5
    20 * 5=2x

3. Simplify 20 * 5 to 100
    100=2x

4. Divide both sides by 2
   100/2=x

5. Simplify 100/2 to 50
     50=x

6. Switch sides
     x=50
so your answer is B. 50
I hope this helped!

Replace y with 20 and the solve to find x, i.e. solve this equation:\[20=\frac{2}{5}x\]

What are the solutions of 3t + 2 < 7 or -4t + 5 < 1? Graph the solutions and put each solution in interval notation.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

$\displaystyle (-∞, 2\frac{1}{3}) ∪ (1, ∞) \\ \\ 2\frac{1}{3} > t \:OR\: 1 < t$

Step-by-step explanation:

3t + 2 < 7 OR −4t + 5 < 1

- 2 - 2 - 5 - 5

___________________

$\displaystyle \frac{3t}{3} < \frac{7}{3} \:OR\: \frac{-4t}{-4} < \frac{-4}{-4} \\ \\ t < 2\frac{1}{3} \:OR\: t >1$

**Whenever you divide\multiply by a negative integer, you reverse the inequality symbol given to you initially.

The sun's mass is about 30 million times greater than the moon. Why does the gravitational pull between earth and the moon affec

lakkis [162]

Even though the mass of the sun is much greater than the mass of the moon, the moon has a greater influence on the tides than the sun. This is because the sun is much farther away from the earth, so its tidal force is only about half that of the moon.

Which of the following statements has a value of -8?

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The answer is A. the opposite of eight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite of 8 is -8, and to prove this, the opposite of -8 is 8. This is correct.

The absolute value of 8 is 8, and the absolute value of any number (positive or negative) will always be positive, so this is incorrect.

8 above 0 means positive 8, so this is incorrect.

The opposite of -8 is positive 8, so this is incorrect.

I hope this helped! :-)
