Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+10=8

So let's solve this equation.

So first, we're gonna have to minus 10 from both sides of the equation.

-2x+10-10=8-10

Now let's turn this into a fraction and divide by -2

\frac{-2x}{-2} =\frac{-2}{-2}

x=1

So now we have our answer!

Hope this Helps!

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 10 from 8 to get -2. Then divide -2x by itself so it will cancel out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation, do to the other so divide -2 by -2 to get your answer of 1

Describe a real-world situation that can be modeled by the function y=2x-3.
lara [203]

Yes you have a good example.

x = number of cookies

2*x = total amount spent on cookies at $2 each

2x-3 = amount you pay after the $3 discount is applied one time for the entire order

-------------

a more numeric example may be this

Lets say you bought 12 cookies, so x = 12

This means it costs 2*x = 2*12 = 24 dollars total if the discount doesnt apply

However, the 3 dollar discount is there, so the grand total is 24-3 = 21 dollars.

What is the value of x? 35x – 13 x = x – 1
Papessa [141]

35x – 13 x = x – 1

⇒ 22 x = x - 1

⇒ 22x - x = -1

⇒ 21x = -1

⇒ x = -1/21

Thus,the value of x is -1/21

If a secretary typed 10,800 words in 2 hours and 30 minutes, how many words per minute did she type? ( Hint: Change hours to min
melamori03 [73]
<h3>Answer:  72 words per minute</h3>

Work Shown:

1 hour = 60 min

2 hours = 120 min (multiplied both sides by 2)

2 hours + 30 min = 120 min + 30 min = 150 min

speed = (number of words typed)/(time taken)

speed = (10800 words)/(150 min)

speed = (10800/150) words per minute

speed = 72 words per minute
