Answer:

-23

Step-by-step explanation: You have to combine like terms first:

-3.8x -5.9x                 =223.1

-9.7x                          = 223.1

Then divide om each side of the equation by -9.7.

-9.7x/-9.7                   = 223.1/-9.7

x                               =- 23

Answer:

x=-23

Step-by-step explanation:

-<u>3.8x</u>-<u>5.9x</u>=223.1

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients

(-3.8-5.9)x

calculate the difference

-<u>9.7x</u>=223.1

Divide both sides of the equation by -9.7

-9.7x÷(<u>-9.7</u>)=223.1÷(<u>-9.7</u>)

Any expression divided by itself equals 1

x=223.1÷(-9.7)

x=-23

42. Use the Quadratic Equation to find the Roots of x2 + 3x - 3=0
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the x terms are {1, 3, -3}, so the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac, is 3^2 - 4(1)(-3), or 9 + 12, or 21.  The positive nature of the discriminant tells us that there are two real, unequal roots.  Following the quadratic formula, we get:

       -3 ± √21

x = -----------------

Taylor has saved $99 for a tablet. That is 45% of the cost of the tablet. How much does the tablet cost?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

$220

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

We know that 99 over some number (x) must equal 45%

99/x=45/100

Cross multiply

45x=9,900

Divide by 45 on both sides

x=220

So, the tablet costs $220

Hope this helps! :)

Find the Perimeter of the figure below, composed of a rectangle and a semicircle. Round to the nearest tenths place.
Dimas [21]

Answer:

50.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the circle is 12.56 because we take 1/2 of 8 (the length of the short side of the rectangle) and multiply that by pie (or 3.14). Now that we know that the perimeter of the circle is 12.56 we add that to 8 (short side of the rectangle) and we add that to 15 twice (which is 30)

The cost for taking a taxi is $1.80 plus $0.10 per eighth of a mile. What is the cost of a ride that is 4.5 miles long?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

$1.80 + (8x$0.10)*4.5 = $5.40

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.80 base cost

$0.10 for an 8th of a mile, thus multiply by 8 = $0.80 per mile

So, $1.80 + (4.5 * $0.8) = $5.40
