Steps to solve:

-5(x - 2) = -(x + 6)

~Simplify both sides

-5x + 10 = -x - 6

~Subtract 10 to both sides

-5x = -x - 16

~Add x to both sides

-4x = -16

~Divide -4 to both sides

x = 4

Best Of Luck!

Answer:

\huge{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 4}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{ - 5(x - 2) =  - (x + 6)}

Distribute -5 through the parentheses in left hand side

Similarly, distribute ( - ) sign through the parentheses in right hand side

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 5x + 10 =  - x  - 6}}

Move x to left hand hand side and change it's sign

Similarly, move 10 to right hand side and change it's sign

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 5x + x =  - 6 - 10}}

Collect like terms

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 4x =  - 6 - 10}}

The negative integers are always added but posses the negative ( - ) sign

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 4x =  - 16}}

Divide both sides by -4

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{ - 4x}{ - 4}  =  \frac{ - 16}{ - 4}}}

Calculate

\longrightarrow{ \sf{x = 4}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

Surface Area: 155.98 yd²

Volume = 145.02 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok this might take a while to explain lol. First, to find the surface area of a composite 3D figure, add the areas of each geometric figure making up the composite 3D figure.

So first, we do the area of the triangle:

Equation: height base/2 which is 3 • 5/2 = 7.5

Next, the area of the rectangular prism:

Equation: 2(width • length + height • length + height • width)

Which is, 2·(2.8 · 8 + 4.8 · 8 + 4.8 · 2.8) = 148.48

The next step is to add the areas of the 3D figures together, so

7.5 + 148.48 = 155.98 (Surface area = 155.98 yd²)

Next, we do the volume:

To find the volume of a composite 3D figure, draw any necessary planes to view the figure as basic three dimensional figures, then: add basic figure volumes belonging to the composite shape.

I don't think it's necessary to re-draw anything, so just look at the figures as 3-dimensional shapes and find the volume the normal way.

Equation: 0.5 • base • height • length = 0.5 • 3 • 5 • 5

0.5 • 3 • 5 • 5 = 37.5 (Volume = 37.5)

Then finally, we do the volume of the rectangular prism:

Equation: width • height • length =2.8 · 4.8 · 8

2.8 • 4.8 • 8 = 107.52 (Volume = 107.52)

Finally, add the two volumes together and you are all done :)

37.5 + 107.52 = 145.02 (Volume = 145.02 yd³)

The distance traveled varies directly with the time spent in motion when speed is held constant.
disa [49]

Answer:

16/3 or 5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

150 miles  = 4 hours

Find how long it takes to travel 50 miles(GCF  between 150 and 200)

150/3 = 4/3

50 miles = 1 1/3 hours: multiply by 4 to get 200 miles

50 x 4 = 4/3 x 4/1

200 = 16/3

16/3 hours or 5.3
