Alecsey [184]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 22/15

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5(6x-4)=10+(1.5+0.5)

Combine like terms

2.5(6x-4)=10+(2)

2.5(6x-4)=12

Divide each side by 2.5

6x-4 = 4.8

Add 4 to each side

6x = 8.8

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 8.8/6

x = 88/60

x = 22/15

Micheal has 40ft of fencing for the rectangular dog run. So the perimeter of the dog run is 40ft.

Perimeter=40ft

The perimeter of a rectangle is:

P=2l+2w

Since we know the length is 5 and the perimeter is 40, we can solve for the width.

P=2l+2w
40=2*(5)+2w
40=10+2w
subtract 10 from both sides
30=2w
divide both sides by 2
15=w

The width of the fence is 15feet.

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 5. If the number is multiplied by 3, the result is 42. Write and solve a system o
Elenna [48]
A two digit number has a tens digit and a ones digit.
Let's say x = tens digit and y = ones digit

"The sum of the digits is 5"
x + y = 5

The next phrase is "the number multiplied by 3 is 42" but we need to represent the number using the digits. So they need to be multiplied first by their place value and added together. [Example: 34 = 3(10) + 4(1)]

The number is: 10x + y
3(10x + y) = 42

The system of equations: (two equations for two unknowns)
x + y = 5
30x + 3y = 42

Then you can use substitution or elimination to combine and solve.
I'll use elimination, multiply the entire top equation by -3 and add the equations together. y will cancel out

-3x - 3y = -15
30x + 3y = 42
------------------
27x + 0 = 27
x = 1

then plug x = 1 into either equation to find y

1 + y = 5
y = 4

remember the x and y represent digits so the number xy is 14

How to solve exterior angles
maks197457 [2]
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the other 2 oposite interior angles
therfor

95=4x-8+3x-18
95=7x-24
add 24 both sides
119=7x
divide both sides by 7
17=x


sub back

4x-8
4(17)-8
68-8
60=∠F

3x-16
3(17)-16
