X/8 - 10 = x/3
bring the values with the variable on one side
x/3 - x/8 = 10
find a common denominator and subtract these fractions
8x/24 - 3x/24 = -10
now subtract fractions
8x - 3x = 5x
5x/24 = -10
multiply both sides by 24
5x = -240
divide both sides by 5
x = -48
the number is -48
Answer:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 12x - 15
Dividing through by 3:
= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)
We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Answer:
C is the correct answer due to two-step inequality process
Step-by-step explanation:
Your inequality is: 5a + 18 < -27
First, you must remember that the < or > shall not be shaded in.
You could automatically eliminate answer A.
Now you need to do two-step inequalities which is the same thing as two-step equations but with an inequality sign.
5a + 18 < -27
5a < -27-18
5a < -45
**Now, here's something important: If you are multiplying with negatives while dealing with inequalities you must switch the sign to its opposite.
-9 > a
You need to find a number line that has numbers less than -9. It could be -10, -11, -12, -122, etc.
C is the correct answer.
The answer is 8 since when you replace t by 3 it will be 3+5=8
Answer:
P' = (2, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the x-value and the y-value of the pre-image, so all you have to do is plug that into the translation statement (x + 9 , y - 3).
Since x = -7 and y = 1 that would be (-7 + 9, 1 - 3), or (2, -2).
