Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x - 1 = 4 x + 5

Subtract 4 x from both sides:

(2 x - 4 x) - 1 = (4 x - 4 x) + 5

2 x - 4 x = -2 x:

-2 x - 1 = (4 x - 4 x) + 5

4 x - 4 x = 0:

-2 x - 1 = 5

Add 1 to both sides:

(1 - 1) - 2 x = 1 + 5

1 - 1 = 0:

-2 x = 5 + 1

5 + 1 = 6:

-2 x = 6

Divide both sides of -2 x = 6 by -2:

(-2 x)/(-2) = 6/(-2)

(-2)/(-2) = 1:

x = 6/(-2)

The gcd of 6 and -2 is 2, so 6/(-2) = (2×3)/(2 (-1)) = 2/2×3/(-1) = 3/(-1):

x = 3/(-1)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 3/(-1) by -1:

Answer: x = -3

Can someone please explain how to do number 9.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x<15, probably

Step-by-step explanation:

maybe multiply 2 to each side to eliminate the fraction. so 3x+15<60. subtract 15 to isolate the variable term so 3x<45. divide by 3 to isolate x so x<15. check the work. is the inequality true for all values of x less than 15? let's try the first possible integer value, 14, to be sure. 3(14)+15= 57. so 57/2<30. now 57/2 is 28.5 and 28.5<30 so it seems right

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

The load weight is 2.29 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that  at equilibrium, the sum of the moment and the sum of forces about a point is zero, therefore, we have;

∑M =0

∑F = 0

The parameters given are;

The distance of the load from the hinge = 35 cm

The distance of the load from the spring balance = 15 cm

The applied force on the spring balance = 4 N↑

The direction of the applied force on the spring balance = Upwards

Let the weight of the load = W↓

The direction of the weight of the load = Downwards

We use downward negative and upward positive coefficients for the forces

We take moment about the hinge as follows;

Sum of moments equals zero gives;

4 × (35 - 15) - W × 35 = 0

∴ 4 × (35 - 15) = W × 35

4 × 20 = W × 35

W = 4 × 20/35 = 2.29 N

The weight of the load = 2.29 N.
