Answer:

#1. Identity #2. 0 #3. No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

#1.

5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y+4)

5y + 2 = 5y + 2

This would be identity as the equation of the left and right are the same. This is not to be confused with no solution(explained below).

#2.

0.5b + 4 = 2(b+2)

0.5b + 4 = 2b + 4

0.5 b - 2b = 0

b = 0

#3.

-3x + 5 = -3x + 10

This equation has no solution because when you try to bring the -3x to one side, the x variable itself gets eliminated. So, how is it different from identity? Well in the first equation, it is true that when we try to bring the 5y one side it eliminates the y variable, however, that is also true for the constants(since if we try to bring the 2 to one side, it will be 2-2 which will equal 0, thus eliminating each other), but in this case, even if we remove the x, the constants will not equal 0, thus it will have no solution.

Answer:

x = 22 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right angle and both angles added together will equal to 90degrees this means that:

(3x-5) + (x+7) = 90

(first, remove the brackets)

3x-5+x+7 = 90

( add the numbers together and the term x together)

( 3x+x ) + ( -5+7 ) = 90

4x + 2 = 90

(subtract 2 from both sides)

4x = 88

(divide by 4 from both sides)

x = 22

so the measure of x = 22 degrees

Solve the equatuon<br><br> x/2-(2/(x+1))=1<br><br> x=?

Snezhnost [94]

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{2}{x+1}=1$

We have 2 denominators that we need to get rid of. Whenever there are the denominators, all we have to do is multiply all whole equation with the denominators.

Our denominators are both 2 and x+1. Therefore, we multiply the whole equation by 2(x+1)

$\frac{x}{2}[2(x+1)]-\frac{2}{x+1}[2(x+1)] = 1[2(x+1)]$

Then shorten the fractions.

$\frac{x}{2}[2(x+1)]-\frac{2}{x+1}[2(x+1)] = 1[2(x+1)]\\x(x+1)-2(2)=1(2x+2)$

Distribute in all.

$x^2+x-4=2x+2$

We should get like this. Because the polynomial is 2-degree, I'd suggest you to move all terms to one place. Therefore, moving 2x+2 to another side and subtract.

$x^2+x-4-2x-2=0\\x^2-x-6=0\\$

We are almost there. All we have to do is, solving for x by factoring. (Although there are more than just factoring but factoring this polynomial is faster.)

$(x-3)(x+2)=0\\x=3,-2$

Thus, the answer is x = 3, -2

A contractor bought 6.4 ft2 of sheet metal. He has used 2.1 ft2 so far and has $77.40 worth of

son4ous [18]

Answer:

$18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

6.4x - 2.1x = 77.4

Where,

x = cost of sheet metal per square foot

How much does sheet metal cost per square foot?

6.4x - 2.1x = 77.4

4.3x = 77.4

Divide both sides by 4.3

x = 77.4 / 4.3

= 18

x = $18

Sheet metal per square foot cost $18

7x +16 < -5(4 - 5x)....given
7x + 16 < -20 + 25x....distributive property
16 < -20 + 18x ... subtraction property
16 + 20 < 18x.....addition property
36 < 18x
36/18 < x.....division property
