3x - 24 = 81

Add 24 to each side.

3x - 24 + 24 = 81 + 24

3x = 105

Divide each side by 3.

(3x)/3 = 105/3

x = 35

Answer: x = 35

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7, -7) and (-7, 1) ?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

(-7, -7) and (-7, 1)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(1 - (-7)) / (-7 - (-7))

Simplify the parentheses.

= (1 + 7) / (-7 + 7)

Simplify the fraction.

8/0

= undefined

Our line is a vertical line, which has an undefined slope.

Hope this helps!

A typical television newscast has three cameras. The center camera directly faces the news anchors desk. The other two cameras a

<span>150 degrees. Let's assume the center camera is pointed to at an angle of 0 degrees. Since it has a coverage of 60 degrees, then it will cover the angles from -30 to +30 degrees. Now we'll continue to use the +/- 30 degree coverage for the other two cameras. The second camera is aimed at 45 degrees, so it's range of coverage is 15 degrees to 75 degrees (45 +/- 30). Notice that the range from 15 degrees to 30 degrees is covered by 2 cameras. Now the 3rd camera is pointed at -45 degrees, so its coverage is from -15 degrees to -75 degrees. It also has an overlap with the 1st camera from -15 to -30 degrees. The total coverage of all three cameras ranges from -75 degrees to 75 degrees. That means that an arc of 150 degrees in total is covered by all three cameras.</span>

Question # 1

Answer:

$\frac{-2}{3}\times \frac{3}{5}+\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{6}=-\frac{3}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$\frac{-2}{3}\times \frac{3}{5}+\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{6}$

$=-\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{6}$ ∵ $\frac{-2}{3}\times \frac{3}{5}=-\frac{2}{5}$

$=-\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{4}$ ∵ $\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{4}$

$\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}5,\:4:\quad 20$

$=-\frac{8}{20}+\frac{5}{20}$

$\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$=\frac{-8+5}{20}$

$\mathrm{Add/Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:-8+5=-3$

$=\frac{-3}{20}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}$

$=-\frac{3}{20}$

Therefore,

$\frac{-2}{3}\times \frac{3}{5}+\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{6}=-\frac{3}{20}$

Question # 2

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{-3}{7}-\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{14}\times \frac{2}{5}=-\frac{5}{28}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{-3}{7}-\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{14}\times \frac{2}{5}$

$=-\frac{6}{35}-\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{2}{5}\times \frac{1}{14}$ ∵ $\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{-3}{7}=-\frac{6}{35}$

$=-\frac{6}{35}-\frac{1}{140}$ ∵ $\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{14}\times \frac{2}{5}=\frac{1}{140}$

$\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}35,\:140:\quad 140$

$=-\frac{24}{140}-\frac{1}{140}$

$\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$=\frac{-24-1}{140}$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:-24-1=-25$

$=\frac{-25}{140}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}$

$=-\frac{25}{140}$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:5$

$=-\frac{5}{28}$

Therefore,

$\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{-3}{7}-\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{14}\times \frac{2}{5}=-\frac{5}{28}$
