Answer:

<h2><u>x = 14</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 11 - 5x + 17 = 0

First collect like terms and add or subtract them,

3x - 5x + 11 + 17 = 0

-2x + 28 = 0

Second subtract -28 from both side, which will be,

-2x + 28 - 28 = 0 - 28

-2x = -28

Then divide both side by -2,

-2x / -2 = -28 / -2

after dividing it by -2, the final answer will be,

<h2><u>x = -14 </u></h2><h2>I hope this helps you.</h2>

John received $300 for his birthday he buys 4 DVDs at $12.95 each. Sales tax is 6.5% how much birthday money does he have left
joja [24]

Answer: $244.83


Step-by-step explanation:

First find the original amount spent on dvds:

    $12.95 * 4 = $51.80

Then, the sales tax (6.5% is converted to decimal form by dividing by 100):

    $51.80 * 0.065 = $3.367

Add the sales tax to the original amount to get the total amount spent:

    $51.80 + $3.367 = $55.167

Round to the nearest hundredth:

    $55.167 -> $55.17

Subtract the total amount from the money received for his birthday:

    $300 - $55.17 = $244.83

What is the solution to this system of equations<br>(5z +y=2<br>( 47 +y=5​
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Z = 8.8 Y = - 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 2 - 5Z

Y = 5 - 47

2 - 5Z = 5 - 47

- 5Z = - 44

5Z = 44

Z = 8.8

Y = 2 - 5 (8.8)

Y = 2 - 44

Y = - 41

Y = 5 - 47

Y = - 42

What is the solution to 3 times the square root of 4 minus 2 times the square root of 4? A. 0 B. 1 C. 2 D. 3
olasank [31]

For this case we have the expression:

"the square root of 4" is represented algebraically as:

\sqrt {4}

Then, we can express the given statement as:

3 \sqrt {4} -2 \sqrt {4} =

They are similar terms, we can subtract:

3 \sqrt {4} -2 \sqrt {4} = \sqrt {4} = \sqrt {2 ^ 2}

By definition of power properties we have that:

\sqrt [n] {a ^ n} = a ^ {\frac {n} {n}} = a

Then the expression is reduced to:

\sqrt {2 ^ 2} = 2

Answer:

3 \sqrt {4} -2 \sqrt {4} = 2

If –1 is a root of f(x), which of the following must be true?
zysi [14]
The correct answer is that a factor of f(x) is (x+1)

This is due to the zero product property, which states that if two binomials multiply to 0, then one of its factors must equal 0.

(x+1) must equal 0.
(x+1)=0
x=-1

If (x-1)=0, then x would equal 1 instead of -1 which is what the question is asking for.
