5x – 2(x + 7) = -5

mutiply the bracket by -2

(-2)(x)= -2x

(-2)(7)= -14

5x-2x-14=-5

3x-14= -5

move -14 to the other side, sign changes from -14 to +14

3x-14+14= -5+14

3x= 9

divide by 3 for both sides

3x/3= 9/3

x= 3

Answer: x= 3

Which equation can be used to solve for b? Triangle A B C is shown. Angle B C A is a right angle and angle C A B is 30 degrees.
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: We should use the correct formula for tan α  (which is opposite

leg over adjacent leg)   tan α = 5/b

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached file

We must use the for equation of tan α = BC/AC  

tan α = BC/ b              tan α = 5/b      tan 30⁰  = 1/√3

b = 5/√3    ⇒ b = 5/1.7320

b = 2.8868  cm

Which equation has no solution?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

B. 5 + 2(3+2x) = x + 3(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 2(3+2x) = x + 3(x+1)

5 + 6 + 4x = x + 3x + 3

11 + 4x = 4x + 3

4x - 4x = 3 - 11

0 = - 8, which is absurd.

Hence the equation 5 + 2(3+2x) = x + 3(x+1) has no solution.

Point Q is the centroid of △ABC. QF = _____<br><br> A. 10<br> B. 5<br> C. 15<br> D. 9
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: QF = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if a triangle has a centroid, the ratio of the longer segment to shorter segment is 2:1. We can set up a proportion \frac{2}{1} = \frac{10}{x}, where x is the length of QF. By cross multiplying and dividing, you get x = 5 or QF = 5.
