X = 5(x) y+36
the x in the parenthesis mean multiply.

That is the equation you'd use then solve from there

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 3y – 4z = 8    ----------------(I)

5x – 3y + 5z = -8    -----------------(II)

7x – 3y + 3z = 8 ------------------(III)

Add equation (I) & (II) and thus y will be eliminated

(I)        -2x + 3y – 4z = 8

(II)        <u>5x – 3y + 5z = -8</u>    {Add}

           3x          + z  = 0   ------------------------(A)

Multiply equation (II) by (-1) and then add with equation (III). Thus y will be eliminated.

(II) * (-1)         -5x + 3y - 5z = +8

                     <u>7x – 3y + 3z = 8</u>   {Add}

                     2x         -2z   = 16   ---------------(B)

Multiply equation (A) by 2 and then add. Thus z will be eliminated and we will get the value of x

(A) * 2          6x + 2z = 0

(B)                 <u>2x - 2z  = 16</u>   {Add}

                     8x         = 16

Divide both sides by 8

                             x = 16/8

                          x = 2

Plugin x = 2 in equation (A)

3x + z = 0

3*2 + z = 0

 6 + z = 0

       z = -6

Plug in x = 2 and z  = - 6 in equation (I)

-2x +3y - 4z = 8

-2*2 + 3y - 4*(-6) = 8

-4 + 3y + 24 = 8

     3y   + 20 = 8

               3y = 8 - 20

               3y = -12

                 y = -12/3

y = -4

Solve for x:<br><br><br><br> 2 x + 10 + 2 x - 6 = 36
skad [1K]
Group together the like terms (plus 2x with 2x) (subtract 10 by 6)

4x+4=36

Move plus four to the other side as a negative

4x=32

Divide both sides by 4

32 divided by 4 is 8


Therefore, x is equal to 8

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

We are here given a modulus expression and we need to find out the value when m = -5 and n = 3 .

<u>Modulus</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u> It always gives positive value . For example ,

\rm\implies |-a| = a

\rm\implies |a| = a

<u>The </u><u>given</u><u> </u><u>modulus </u><u>expression</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\rm\implies |m^2+ n^2|

As the number inside the modulus operator are already squared therefore they will always give positive value for real numbers . Here we can omit the modulus .

\rm\implies m^2 + n^2

Plug in the given values ,

\rm\implies (-5)^2 + 3^2

Solve 5² and 3² and add them ,

\rm\implies 25 + 9

On adding ,

\rm\implies 34

Therefore ,

\rm\implies \boxed{\blue{\rm |m^2+n^2| = 34 }}

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>required</u><u> answer</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>34</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

The regular price of a scooter is $65.50. It is on sale for $52.40. What is the percent
kherson [118]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the actual dollar amount of the discount.

$65.50 - $52.40 = $13.10

Now we need to find what percent of $65.50 is $13.10.

To find what percent a part is of the whole, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100%.

percent = part/whole * 100%

percent = $13.10/$65.50 * 100% = 20%

Answer: 20%
