Answer:

x = -15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply use equation properties to solve for x.

2x - 5 = -20

2x - 5 + 5 = -20 + 5

2x = -15 ( Add positive 5 to both sides )

2x * (1/2) = -15 * (1/2)

x = -15/2 ( Multiply both sides by 1/2)

Hence, the solution to x is -15 / 2.

Cheers.

Add 5 to both sides so both sides are still equivalent. And then divide each side by 2 to solve for x. That’s how I would explain it

In a cave, a stalactite gets 44 millimeters longer each year. this year it is 72 centimeters long. how many years until it is 1

iragen [17]

Answer:

6.36 years (the .36 repeats), so rounded is 6.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm going to convert all measurements to meters.

Since 1000 mm = 1 m, divide 44 by 1000.

44/1000 = 0.044 m

Since 100 cm = 1 m, divide 72 by 100.

72/100 = 0.72 m

Next, I'm going to setup an equation using y = mx + b.

b is the beginning amount which is 0.72.

m in the equation represents the rate which is 0.044.

y represents the total which is 1.

Plugin the numbers and solve for x.

1 = 0.044x + 0.72

1 - 0.72 = 0.044x + 0.72 - 0.72

0.28 = 0.044x

0.28/0.044 = 0.044x/0.044

6.36 = x

If f(x)=7x-3, what is the value of x when f(x)=1

frosja888 [35]

Set up your equation:
1 = 7x - 3

Add 3 to both sides:
7x = 4

Divide both sides by 7:
x = 4/7

Hope this helps!
