Answer:

x = -7/12 or -0.583.. repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

___________ (distributive property)

(to group like terms)

6x-5 = -6x-12

___________ (addition poe) (add 6x on both sides to cancel -6 out)

+6x +6x

___________

12x-5 = -12

__________

+5 +5 (addition poe) (add 5 to both sides to cancel -5 out)

__________

12x = -7

__________

÷12 ÷12 (division poe) (divide both sides by 12 to get x)

x = -7/12

The desert temperature, H, oscillates daily between 30ºF at 4am and 70ºF at 4pm. Write a possible formula for H in terms of t, m
densk [106]
<span>The find step is to find C which is the vertical shift. This is the average between the maximum and minimum. So its 30+70=100/2= 50. the amplitude (A) take the average of the difference between max. temp. and min. value So 70-30= 40/2= 20, but it becomes -20 because the graph is shifted up 50 degrees and decreases to 30 at 4a.m. Then the period is 2pi/B which is 2pi/24, which equals pi/12. A=-20 B= pi/12 C=50</span>

Help please! make sure to tell me the answer and an explanation!
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

So since this is all about perimeter you just got to add the values together. So lets use 12 as the denominator for every fraction. 1/4 is equal to 3/12 and 2/3 is equal to 8/12. So in conclusion 3/12 plus 8/12 and 1/12 will equal 1 in total. and then add up all the whole numbers 4 + 2 + 3 + 1 will get you 10. So 10 is your answer.

Tv Is 40 inches in length and 24 inches in width how tall is it
Sedaia [141]

Answer

<em>TV screens are measured on the diagonal  </em>

<em>. In this specific case the TV is shaped like a rectangle , whose diagonal is 40 i n c h e s and its width is 24 i n c h e s : w = </em>

<em>24 i n d = 40 i n  </em>

<em>Then , the sides of the rectangle and its diagonal form a right triangle .  </em>

<em>Therefore , we can determine the height ( l )  </em>

<em>if we can apply the Pythagorean theorem: d 2 = l 2 + w 2  </em>

<em>So , solving for l : l = √ d 2 − w 2  </em>

<em>Thus , substituting: l = √ ( 40 ) 2 − ( 24 ) 2  </em>

<em>Simplifying: d = √ 1024 = 32 i n  </em>

<em>Therefore  </em>

<em>, the height of the TV is:  </em>

<em>32 i n </em>
