The true conditional statement, "If 5x + 7 = 2x - 1, then 3x + 7 = -1," illustrates which property of equality?

1 answer:

3 0

<span>The given condition is:
If 5x + 7 = 2x =1, then 3x + 7 = -1
=> This given equation represent a subtraction property of equality.
=> 5x +7 =2x-1
=> 5x – 2x + 7 = -1
=> 3x + 7 = -1

What we did was we subtracted 2x from 5x to get the 3x
Subtraction property of equality is a mathematical process in where we subtract numbers from both sides that contains the same expression.
Like 5x and 2x, since they have the same equation, we both subtracted both numbers and the rest remains as it is.

Apply the appropriate mathematical operation to solve this fulcrum problem.

ale4655 [162]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The second distance ( $distance_{2}$ ) is equal to 7.5 feet.

Since we are given two forces acting at distance, torque will be created. We are given two forces and one distance, so, to calculate the other distance required to balance the system (solve this fulcrum problem), we need to write the following equation:

$Torque_{1}=Torque_{2}$

Where,

$Torque=F*Distance$

We are given,

$Force_{1}=Weight_{1}=150lb\\Force_{2}=Weight_{2}=30lb\\distance_{1}=15ft\\$

So, substituting and calculating, we have:

$Torque_{1}=Torque_{2}$

$Weight_{1}*distance_{1}=Weight_{2}*distance_{2}$

$150lb*15ft=300lb*distance_{2}$

$distance_{2}=\frac{150lb*15ft}{300lb}=7.5ft$

Hence, the second distance ( $distance_{2}$ ) is equal to 7.5 feet.

It's a logical solution since the second force is twice the first force and it means that the second distance must be equal to half the first distance in order to maintain the equilibrium condition.

Have a nice day!

Walt received a package that is 2 1/3 inches long, 6 ¾ inches high, and 8 ½ inches wide. What is the surface area of the package

Umnica [9.8K]

The surface area of prism is 185.815 square inches

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

$Length = 2\frac{1}{3}\ inches = \frac{3 \times 2 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}\ inches = 2.33\ inches$

$Width = 8\frac{1}{2}\ inches = \frac{17}{2}\ inches = 8.5\ inches$

$Height = 6\frac{3}{4}\ inches = \frac{27}{4}\ inches = 6.75\ inches$

<em><u>The surface area of package is given as:</u></em>

$A=2(wl+hl+hw)$

Where,

"l" is the length

"w" is the width

"h" is the height

<em><u>Substituting the values we get,</u></em>

$A = 2((8.5 \times 2.33) + (6.75 \times 2.33) + (6.75 \times 8.5))\\\\Simplify\ the\ above\ equation\\\\A = 2(19.805+15.7275+57.375)\\\\A = 2 \times 92.9075\\\\A = 185.815$

Thus the surface area of prism is 185.815 square inches
