Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given an expression with variable x

-2(x + 3) = -10​

<u>To find the steps to solving expression</u>

Le expression be,

-2(x + 3) = -10​

-2x + (-2 * 3) = -10

-2x - 6 = -10

-2x = -10 + 6

-2x = -4

2x = 4

x = 4/2 = 2

Therefore x = 2

Answer:

<h2>x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x+3)=-10          <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

\dfrac{-2(x+3)}{-2}=\dfrac{-10}{-2}

x+3=5            <em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>

x+3-3=5-3

x=2

There are 7 boxes stacked on the floor in the math department supply closet. Each box has a height of 10 inches or 8 inches. The
Orlov [11]

Answer:

5 of the 7 boxes are 8 inches in height

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

1 ft = 12 inches

So, 5 ft will measure 5 * 12 = 60 inches

So from what we have ,

We want to combine 8 and 10 inches to give 60 inches total

Let the number of 10 inches be x and the number of 8 inches be y

Mathematically;

x + y = 7 •••••(i)

10x + 8y = 60 ••••(ii)

From equation i, x = 7-y

Put this in equation ii

10(7-y) + 8y = 60

70-10y + 8y = 60

70-60 = 10y-8y

2y = 10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Look at picture. Does anybody know the answer I’m lost?
masha68 [24]

Let x,y be the dimensions of the rectangle. We know the equations for both area and perimeter:

A=xy=36

P=2(x+y)=36 \iff x+y=18

So, we have  the following system:

\begin{cases}xy=36\\x+y=18\end{cases}

From the second equation, we can deduce

y=18-x

Plug this in the first equation to get

xy=x(18-x)=-x^2+18=36

Refactor as

x^2-18x+36=0

And solve with the usual quadratic formula to get

x=9\pm3\sqrt{5}

Both solutions are feasible, because they're both positive.

If we chose the positive solution, we have

x=9+3\sqrt{5} \implies y=18-x=18-9-3\sqrt{5}=9-3\sqrt{5}

If we choose the negative solution, we have

x=9-3\sqrt{5} \implies y=18-x=18-9+3\sqrt{5}=9+3\sqrt{5}

So, we're just swapping the role of x and y. The two dimensions of the rectangle are 9+3\sqrt{5} and 9-3\sqrt{5}

IS IT (A , B ) CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
andriy [413]

Answer: 1% is your answer

It's (1/100) * 100 or 1% is the percentage strength of a 1:100 solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

l NOTE:

l To change ratio strength to percent strength, it is

sometimes convenient to "convert" the last two zeros in

a ratio strength to a percent sign (%),

l change the remaining ratio to a common fraction, and

then to a decimal fraction in expressing percent.

l Examples:

l 1:100 =1/1% = 1%

l 1:200 = ½% = 0.5%

l 3:500 = 3/5% = 0.6%

l 1:2500 = l/25% = 0.04%

l 1:10,000 = 1/100% = 0.01%
