Answer:

x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. subtract 3 from both sides. You should have 2x = -10

2. divide both sides by 2. You should end up with x = -5

Answer:

X= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You must move all constants to one side of the equation (one side of the equal sign) and away from 2x. To do so, you must do the inverse operation, which would be subtraction in this case because 3 is a positive number. (Inverse of addition is subtraction, Inverse of subtraction is addition, Inverse of multiplication is division, and inverse of division is multiplication) If you squish a constant and variable together (2x) it means multiplication.
  2. What you must do to one side, you must do to the other. So, since you subtracted 3 from the 3, you must subtract 3 from -7, too(subtracting from a negative is just addition- but you keep the negative sign). Once this is done, your equation will be 2x=-10
  3. Now, you must do the inverse operation to 2x to separate the 2. The inverse operation will be division. So, you divide both sides by 2. 2x divided by 2 will give you x. -10 divided by 2 will give you -5. (When you divided negative and positive numbers, the signs are different, meaning it's negative. If they had the same sign, it would be positive.)
  4. Therefore, your answer is x= -5

Hope I helped! :)

PLEASE HELP I ONLY HAVE 12 MINUTES!! The pendulum of the grandfather clock shown below swings at a maximum angle of 25 degrees.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer: T = 2π√(I/mgD)

Step-by-step explanation:

where:

m is the mass of the pendulum;

I is the moment of inertia of the mass; and

D is the distance from the center of mass to the point of suspension.

Determine the length of the pendulum. For example, it can be equal to 2 m.

Decide a value for the acceleration of gravity. We will use the Earthly figure of 9.80665 m/s², but feel free to check how the pendulum would behave on other planets.

Calculate the period of oscillations according to the formula above: T = 2π√(L/g) = 2π * √(2/9.80665) = 2.837 s.

Find the frequency as the reciprocal of the period: f = 1/T = 0.352 Hz.

You can also let this simple pendulum calculator perform all calculations for you!

Rewrite the equation without absolute value, thanks!
34kurt

Since x - 3 < 0 for -2 < x < 3, |x-3| = -(x-3)

Since x + 2 > 0 for -2 < x < 3, |x+2| = x+2

Since x - 5 < 0 for -2 < x < 3, |x-5| = -(x-5).

So y = -(x-3) + (x+2) -(-(x-5)) = 3 - x + x + 2 + x - 5 = x.

y = x, if -2 < x < 3.
