Answer:

-6x + 15 = - 69 which x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot solve this equation. There is no equal sign anywhere. Either you mean

-6x = 15 in which case the answer is

-6x/-6 = 15/-6

x = - 2 1/2 or x= - 2.5

or you mean that you use the distributive property

- 3(2x + 5)

You may have left something out of this.

-6x + 15 = -  69

You can do it now that you have the complete equation. But you need the entire equation before you can answer the question.

Subtract - 15 from both sides.

-6x + 15 - 15 = -69 - 15

-6x = - 84

Divide by - 6

-6x/-6 = - 84/-6

x = 14

But what you want is

-6x + 15

-6*14 + 15

-84 + 15

-69

-6x + 15 = - 69

when x = 14 which is usually what you are asked.

5x+15y=12 ordered pair are solution to the equation
gayaneshka [121]

Let's solve for x.

5x+15y=12

Step 1: Add -15y to both sides.

5x+15y+−15y=12+−15y

5x=−15y+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5x

=

−15y+12

Answer:

x=−3y+12/5

Let's solve for y.

5x+15y=12

Step 1: Add -5x to both sides.

5x+15y+−5x=12+−5x

15y=−5x+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 15.

15y

=

−5x+12

The area of a circle A is 85π ft2. ∠BAC is a central angle of the circle, and m∠BAC = 36°
BlackZzzverrR [31]
As stated the area of the circle is 85π ft2. The area of the sector BAC is a portion of this full circle area. the sector is made of 2 radii and arc that has rotated by 36°.
the magnitude of the central angle in the circle is 360°
Area for 360° central angle -  85π ft2
then the area for 1°            =  85π ft2/360°
the area of 36° sector         =  85π ft2/360° x 36°
                                           =  8.5π ft2
