What is the value of x in -4(5x-5)=120

Mathematics
1 answer:
Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago

Answer: x = -5

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this equation, we start by distributing the -4 through the parentheses on the left side.

So we have -4 times x which is -20x and -4 times -5 which is positive 20. So our equation now reads -20x + 20 = 120.

Solving from here, we subtract 20 from both sides of the equation and we have -20x = 100 and dividing both sides by -20, we find that x = -5.

Although I will not provide work to check our answer, the great thing about solving equations is that your can always check your answer by substituting what you got as a final answer into the original equation.

PLZ HELP !! Which of the points (s, t) is not one of the vertices of the shaded region of the
stira [4]

Answer:

A(0,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 4 inequalities:

s ≥ 12 - 0.5t (1)

s ≥ 10 -t (2)

s ≤ 20-t (3)

s ≥ 0

t ≥ 0

Let analyse all 4 possible answer:

  • A(0, 10)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 10 ≥ 12 -0.5*0 Wrong

We do not choose A

  • B (0, 20)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 20 ≥ 12 -0.5*0  True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 20 ≥ 10 - 0 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 20 ≤ 20 - 0 True

We choose B as the vertex

  • C. (4, 16)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 16 ≥ 12 -0.5*4  True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 16 ≥ 10 - 4 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 16 ≤ 20 - 4 True

We choose C as the vertex

  • D. (16,4)

Let substitute this point into (1) we have: 4 ≥ 12 -0.5*16 True

Let substitute this point into (2) we have: 4 ≥ 10 - 16 True

Let substitute this point into (3) we have: 4 ≤ 20 - 16 True

We choose B as the vertex

Hence, the point A(0,10)  is not one of the vertices of the shaded region of the  set of inequalities.
