Solve. 5x - 5 = 50 A) x = 8 B) x = 9 C) x = 10 D) x = 11

The answer would be D) x = 11.

Add 5 to both sides (5x = 50 + 5)

Simplify 50 + 5 to 55 (5x = 55)

Divide both sides by 5 (x = 55/5)

Simplify 55/5 to 11 (x = 11)

5x-5=50
5(11)-5=50
55-5=50
d.)x=11

An architect in Brussels measures something to be 2.5 feet (using the Brussels measurement). How many feet is this in Aalst (usi

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

$2.487F$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Architect Measures 2.5 feet (using the Brussels measurement)

Generally in Brussels $1F=275.75mm$

Therefore

$2.5F=689.375mm$

Generally in Aalst $1F=277.2mm$

Therefore Mathematically converting to feet in Aalst measurement we get

$689.375mm*\frac{1}{277.2} =2.487F$

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given the points

(-1, -2)

(3, 4)

Determining the slope between (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:-2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:4\right)$

$m=\frac{4-\left(-2\right)}{3-\left(-1\right)}$

$m=\frac{3}{2}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

m = 3/2

substituting m = 3/2 and the point (3, 4) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

$4=\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b$

switch sides

$\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b=4$

$\frac{9}{2}+b=4$

subtract 9/2 from both sides

$\frac{9}{2}+b-\frac{9}{2}=4-\frac{9}{2}$

$b=-\frac{1}{2}$

now substituting m = 3/2 and b = -1/2 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

$y = mx+b$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:+\:\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Solve: x + 1 < 5<br>Me confused and need help

natita [175]

Answer: x < 4

Step-by-step explanation: You are trying to isolate the variable, x, so you have to subtract 1 on both sides of the inequality. Then, you are left with x < 4.
