2.50x + 15.00 = 1.00x what is x?

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

2.50x + 15.00 = 1.00x

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Subtract 1.00x on both sides: 1.50x + 15.00 = 0
  2. Subtract 15.00 on both sides: 1.50x = -15.00
  3. Divide both sides by 1.50: x = -10

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

2.50(-10) + 15.00 = 1.00(-10)

-25 + 15.00 = -10

-10 = -10

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply both sides by 10:

2.50x*10+15*10=1.00x*10

Refine:

25x + 150 = 10x

Subtract 150 from both sides:

25x + 150 - 150 = 10x - 150

Simplify:

25x = 10x - 150

Subtract 10x from both sides:

25x - 10x = 10x - 150 - 10x

Simplify:

15x = -150

Divide both sides by 15:

15x/15 = -150/15

Simplify:

x = -10

I need to find the perimeter and area of the regular polygon.
mezya [45]
The area of a polygon is given by the formula Area = ap/2 where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter. The apothem is a line from the center of the polygon perpendicular to a side.

Depending on the formula you know, you can find the length of a side in 1 of 2 ways. 

The first way uses a triangle. Using the radius of the polygon you can create 8 congruent triangles. The center angle will be 360 / 8 = 45 and two side lengths of 20. You can find the length of the base using the law of cosines.

c^2 = 20^2 + 20^2 - 2(20)(20)(cos 45)
c^2 = 400 + 400 - 800(cos 45)
c^2 = 800 - 800(cos 45)
c = sqrt(800 - 800(cos 45)
c = 15.31

The second way is to use this formula:
r = s / (2 sin(180 / n))
20 = s / (2 sin(180/8)
(20)(2)sin(22.5) = s
(40)sin(22.5) = s
s = 15.31

We need to calculate the perimeter. As there are 8 sides (8)(15.31) = 122.48
Now we need to calculate the apothem using

a = S / (2 tan (180 / n)
a = 15.31 / (2 tan (180 / 8))
a = 18.48

Now solve for the area

Area = ap/2
Area = (18.48)(122.48)/2
Area = 1131.72

perimeter = 122.48
area = 1131.72

HELP ME PLEASE I NEED HELP​
Olin [163]

Step-by-step explanation:

You should prolly subtract 2 from both sides first.

So you get, -|2/5x + 3| > -1 2/5

  • Add three to both sides
  • -|2/5x| = -1 2/5
  • Do -1 and 2/5 divided by 2/5 to get -3.5, x > -3.5

One of the answers is x > -3.5 but you need to switch the sign to less than and make the other side the opposite.

-( \frac{2}{5}x + 3 ) < 1 \frac{2}{5}

You see that, switched the sign and made whats on the right side opposite. So now solve for x again but with this new equation. Also, the parentheses are absolute value signs

Subtract 3 from both sides

-|2/5x| < -1 and 3/5

Divide 2/5 from each side to get x < -4

I hope I'm correct, my bad if I'm wrong
