5(x+y)= 20+ 3x
5x+5y=20+3x
5x+5y-3x=20+3x-3x
2x+5y=20
2x+5y-2x=20-2x
5y=-2x+20
5y/5=-2x/5+20/5
y=-2/5x+4
ANSWER: y=-2/5x+4
Not quite sure what you mean by brackets, but you can get the solution to this equation in a few steps:
<span>(-2x - 1)</span>² <span>= 0 ... square root both sides to eliminate the squared binomial
</span>√(-2x - 1)² = √0 ... simplify; the square is canceled out and the root of 0 brings you back to 0
-2x - 1 = 0 ... solve like a two-step equation
-2x = 1
x = -1/2 is your x-value.
Answer:
4 pairs of sock and a little bit of left over change.
Step-by-step explanation:
24.95 + 5.95x = 50
-24.95 -24.95
5.95x=25.05
/5.95 /5.95
x = 4.21
We drop the 0.21 because you cant have 0.21 pairs of socks and we get:
x=4
Answer:
C. 6,000 km
Step-by-step explanation:
v = speed at S-wave travel through the earth = 8 km/sec
t = time of travel for the S-wave through the earth = 13 minutes = 13 x 60 seconds = 780 seconds (Since 1 minute = 60 seconds)
d = distance traveled by S-wave in the given time interval
Distance traveled by S-wave in the given time interval is given as
d = v t
inserting the above values in the formula
d = (8 km/sec) (780 sec)
d = 6240 km
the closest choice is 6000 km at option C
So Option C
