Mathematics

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x -2 = 10 + 20

2x -2 + 2= 10 + 20 + 2

2x = 32

x = 32/2 = 16

Plug this in, too.

2(16) - 2 = 10 + 20

30 = 30 and they are equal!

Answer: x= -11/4 as a proper fraction; -2.75 as a decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-2= 10x + 20

Combine like terms

-2-20=10×-2×

-22=-8×

Divide both sides by 8

x=-22/8

=-11/4 or 2 3/4

X= -2.75

Plug the value of x into the equation:

2 (-2.75) -2 = 10 (-2.75) +20

-5.5 -2 = -27.5 + 20

-7.5 = -7.5

7/2 inches by 3/2 inches?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

<u><em>5.25 inches or </em></u>5 \frac{1}{4}<u><em> inches</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>I believe that the question is what do they multiply to..? If so, we start by </em></u><u><em>making them both in decimal form:</em></u>

<u><em>7 / 2 = 3.5</em></u>

<u><em>3 / 2 = 1.5</em></u>

<u><em>Now, we </em></u><u><em>multiply</em></u><u><em>:</em></u>

<u><em>3.5 * 1.5 = 5.25</em></u>

<u><em>If you want fraction form, we can turn .25 to 1/4.</em></u>

<u><em>Fraction form: </em></u>5 \frac{1}{4}

In ABC the measure of angle a is 2X +3 the measure of angle B is 4X +2 and the measure of angle C is 2X-1 what are the measures
Novay_Z [31]
Angle A is 2x + 3
Angle B is 4x + 2
Angle C is 2x - 1

The three angles add up to 180
So:
2x + 3 + 4x + 2 + 2x - 1 = 180
Combine terms
8x +  4 = 180
Subtract 4
8x = 176
x = 22

Now we solve for the angles:
Angle A is 2(22) + 3 = 44 + 3 = 47
Angle B is 4(22) + 2 = 88 + 2 = 90
Angle C is 2(22) - 1 = 44 - 1 = 43

Quick check: 47 + 90 + 43 = 180

Which set of ordered pairs does not represent a function?
Irina18 [472]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B. { (3, –2), (3, –4), (4, –1), (4, –3) }

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Functions are a set of points that show how dependent variables change through independent variables.

Defining a Function

In functions, each x-value is assigned to exactly one y-value. This means that x-values do not repeat. So, if there is one x-value more than once in a set, then it cannot be a function.

For example, set B has the x-value 3 and 4 repeated twice. Thus, it does not represent a function.

Graph of a Function

Functions can also be defined through a graph. Just like with coordinate points, x-values do not repeat on the graph. You can use the vertical line test to see if a graph is a function. If you can draw a vertical line at every point on a graph without it ever intersecting with the graph more than once, then it is a function.

The length of a rectangle is twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 15 inches. What are the measurements of the leng
Airida [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth (b) of a rectangle be x

Then Length (L) = 2x

Now

Perimeter of the rectangle = 15 inches

Or, 2(L + b) = 15

2 ( 2x + x) = 15

2* 3x = 15

6x = 15

x = 15 / 6

x = 2.5 inch

Also Now

Length (L) = 2*2.5 = 5 inches

Breadth (b) = 2.5 inches

Hope it will help :)
