Answer:
x = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5x + 7 = 2x - 8 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
3x + 7 = - 8 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
3x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 5
I think the answer is 9.3, but I’m not sure
The one that best applies here is the b option: The range only includes numbers greater than or equal to 0. This is because<span> when you square a number that is negative or positive, it becomes a positive</span>
Answer:
20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We can work easier if we think in terms of an hour
the first equation that we can write is
A + B = 1/4 (its meaning is that in an hour A and B fill 1/4 of the cistern)
the second equation we can write is
A + C = 1/5 (its meaning is that in an hour A and C fill 1/5 of the cistern)
the third equation that we can write is
B = 2C (its meaning is that in an hour B fill 2 times C the cistern)
now we can substitute the value of B in the first two equations
A + 2C = 1/4
A + C = 1/5
A = 1/5 - C
1/5 - C + 2C = 1/4
C = 1/4 -1/5
C = (5-4)/20
C = 1/20 (this means that in an hour C will fill 1/20 of the cistern, so it takes 20 hours to fill the entire cistern)
A = 1/5 - 1/20
A = (4-1)/20 = 3/20
B = 1/20 *2 = 1/10
Answer:
c = 3 c = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
(4c-5)^2= 49
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((4c-5)^2)= ±qrt(49)
4c-5 = ±7
Separate into two equations
4c-5 = 7 4c-5 = -7
Add 5 to each side
4c-5+5 = 7+5 4c-5+5 =-7+5
4c =12 4c = -2
Divide by 4
4c/4 = 12/4 4c/4 = -2/4
c = 3 c = -1/2
