-2x - 13 = -3x - 5​

Step 1: Combine like terms

x's go with x's (-2x and -3x). To do this add 2x to both sides

(-2x + 2x) - 13 = (-3x + 2x) - 5​

(0) - 13 = (-x) - 5​

- 13 = -x - 5​

normal numbers go with normal numbers ( -13 and -5). To do this add 5 to both sides

(- 13 + 5) = -x + (- 5 +​ 5)

-8 = -x + (0)

-8 = -x

Step 2: Isolate x by dividing -1 to both sides (this will take the negative sign away from the x)

\frac{-8}{-1} =\frac{-x}{-1}

8 = x

x= 8

Hope this helped!

A 30ft electric line is suspended between the tops of two 20ft electric poles on level ground. The lowest point of the line is 5
Lilit [14]

Answer:

There is no distance between them

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 30 ft electric line to be placed between two 20ft electric poles, it would take 15 ft of the electric line to go down to about 5 ft above the ground and another 15 ft of the line to go to the top of the second electric pole. This means that a total of 30ft (15 ft + 15 ft) electric line would be needed which is all the cable we have.

For this to be possible then the poles must be adjacent to each other (i.e. no distance between them).

Answer:

First of all, rectangles and rectangular prisms have one foremost difference, which is their dimensions. A rectangle has two dimensions whilst a rectangular prism has three. Those dimensions include width, length, and height- but a rectangle has only width and length. Although, in comparison, they're both made from the same quadrilateral: rectangles. A "2D" rectangle has one, while a "3D" rectangle, or rectangular prism, is made of six. The rectangles that make up a rectangular prism can also be referred to as faces.

What is the asymptote of g(x)= 4 (1/3) - 2
Nataly [62]

Answer: X=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the function is

All logarithmic functions, despite their base, has a vertical asymptote at argument = 0.

That is not changed by the vertical stretching made by the 4 which multiplies the logarithm nor  the vertical shift made by the +5.

In this case the argument is x - 2, then the vertical asymptote is:

x - 2 = 0
