Solve the equation above

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

X = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 X (5X-8) = -9

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

2 X 1/2 X (5X - 8) = 2 X (-9)

1 X (5X - 8) = 2 X (-9)

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common divisor 2

5 x -8 = 2 x (-9)

5 x -8 = -18

Move constant to the right by adding its opposite to both sides

5X -8 + 8=-18 + 8

Then eliminate the opposites

5X = -18 + 8

Calculate the sum

5X = -10

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

5X DIVIDE 5 = -10 DIVIDE BY 5

X = -10 DIVIDE BY 5

X = -2

The graph shows the relationship between time
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The machine can make 24 bottles of soda per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph of the relationship, we can see that the number of bottles per minute simply represent the slope of the line

Thus, by calculating the slope using the given points, we can have the number of bottles per minute

We have the formula as;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) = (4,96)

(x2,y2) = (6,144)

m = (144-96)/(6-4) = 48/2 = 24
