The solution is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is a linear equation so it will have only one equation

Given equation is:

$5x+3=2x+15$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x+3-3 = 2x+15-3\\5x = 2x+12$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x-2x = 2x-2x+12\\3x = 12$

Division Property of Equality:

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3}\\x = 4$

Hence,

The solution is x = 4

The two Marked angles are congruent yes or no will mark brainest

kompoz [17]

Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

if the vertical lines are not parallel, then the corresponding angles are not congruent.

8x + 2 = 14x - 76

8x - 14x = -76 -2

-6x = -78

x = 13

8(13) + 2 = 14(13) - 76

106 = 106---- equal

the vertical lines is a bit confusing.... they looks like not a parallel lines

Skylar makes turkey sandwiches for a family reunion. He purchases 5 pounds 4 ounces of sliced turkey for $26.88. What is the uni

Advocard [28]

Answer:

The unit cost per ounce for turkey skylar is $ 0.316

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of sliced turkey = 5 pounds + 4 ounces

The total cost of turkey slice = $26.88

Now, as we know

1 pounds = 16 ounces

∴ 5 pounds = 16 × 5 = 80 ounces

So, the total amount is 5 pounds + 80 pounds = 85 pounds

∵ 85 pounds of turkey sliced cost $ 26.88

∴ 1 pounds of turkey sliced cost $ $\frac{26.88}{85}$ = $ 0.316

Hence the unit cost per ounce for turkey skylar is $ 0.316 Answer
