What is -2 = 5 / (2x+3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -11/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

-2 = 5 / (2x+3)

Multiplying both sides by (2x + 3)

-2(2x + 3) = 5

"-" sign will alter the inner signs

-4x -6 = 5

Adding 6 on both sides:

-4x -6 +6 = 5 + 6

-4x  = 11

Dividing both sides by -4

-4x/-4 = 11/-4

x = -11/4

i hope it will help you!

A cyclist accelerates at a rate of 7.0 m/s2. how long will it take the cyclist to reach a speed of 18 m/s?
mart [117]
At constant acceleration  the equation  is

v = u + at     where u = initial speed,  a = acceleration. t = time and v = final speed

So here we have  18 = 0 + 7t

t = 18/7  = 2.6 seconds ( to nearest tenth)

△ABC has vertices A(–2, –2), B(1, –1), and C(2, 0). Find the image of △ABC after a dilation centered at the origin with a scale
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

since the dilatation is centred at the origin , then multiply each of the coordinates of A, B, C by the scale factor 2, that is

A' = (2(- 2), 2(- 2) ) = A'(- 4, - 4 )

B' = (2(1), 2(- 1) ) = B'(2, - 2 )

C' = (2(2), 2(0) ) = C'(4, 0 )

The fifth graders are planning a pizza party. Each fifth grader will eat two slices of pizza with a favorite topping. One-half o
icang [17]
32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.

Let x be the total number of students.

1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.

We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x

We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x


Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x

Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x

Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
