8x - 23 = -x + 18 is how I'm interpreting your query.

"the opposite of the number" is slightly confusing, so I'm assuming you mean a negative. If not, please let me know.

We can solve for x using this equation.

8x - 23 = 18 - x

<em><u>Add x to both sides</u></em>

9x - 23 = 18

<em><u>Add 23 to both sides</u></em>

9x = 41

<em><u>Divide both sides by 9</u></em>

x = 4.56

A car, initially at rest, accelerates at 2 meters/s/s. assuming the car starts from rest, how far will it travel in 10 s?
MrRa [10]
We shall use the formula for distance traveled:
s = ut + (1/2)at^2
where
u = initial velocity
t = time
a =  acceleration.

Because
u = 0 (car starts from rest),
t = 10 s (travel tme),
a = 2 m/s^2 (acceleration), m
the di mstance traveled is
s = (1/2)*(2 m/s^2)*(10 s)^2 = (1/2)*2*100 = 100

Answer: 100 m

Hello

11 cm, 25 cm, 15 cm
if you add the lengths of two sides of the triangle, it must be greater than the length of the third side

therefore, the only possible lengths are 11 cm, 25 cm, 15 cm

using compound interest, how long does it take to double a 1000 dollar investment that pays 6.5% annual interest, compounded mon
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

11 years approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=$1000

A=2000

R=6.5%

T= ?

Calculate time, solve for t

t = ln(A/P) / r

substitute

t=ln(2000/1000)/0.065

t=ln(2)/0.065

t=0.693/0.065

t=10.66

Hence the time is 11 years approx
