Answer:

x=  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x−2(x+1)= 1 /4

5x+(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)= 1 /4

(Distribute)

5x+−2x+−2= 1 /4

(5x+−2x)+(−2)= 1 /4

(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−2= 1 /4

3x−2=1 /4

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

3x−2+2= 1 /4 +2

3x= 9 /4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/ 3 = 9 /4 /3

x= 3 /4

Which ordered pair in the form (x, y) is a solution of this equation?
laiz [17]

Answer:

Substitute the x and y values from the ordered pairs into the equation, one by one, until both sides of the equation are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. (-2,-3)

3 * (-2) - 4 * (-3) = 21

-6 + 12 = 21

6 = 21 <u>not equal</u>

B. (0,7)

3 * 0 - 4 * 7 = 21

0 - 28 = 21

- 28 = 21 <u>n</u><u>o</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>e</u><u>q</u><u>u</u><u>a</u><u>l</u>

C. (7,0)

3 * 7 - 4 * 0 = 21

21 - 0 = 21

21 = 21 <u>equal</u>

The formula for centripetal acceleration, a, is given below, where v is the velocity of the object and r is the object's distanc
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following equation:

a = v ^ 2 / r

From here, we must clear the value of speed.

We have then:

v ^ 2 = a * r

v = root (a * r)

Answer:

the formula for the velocity is:

v = root (a * r)

How do I solve this?
Korvikt [17]

The interior angles of any triangle always sum to 180°.

In the triangle, angles C and D are labeled congruent, so the missing angle has measure

180° - 2 (6x - 5)°

This angle is supplementary to the one labeled (11x + 1)°, which means

180° = (11x + 1)° + (180° - 2 (6x - 5)°)

Solve for x :

180° = (11x + 1)° + 180° - 2 (6x - 5)°

0 = (11x + 1)° - 2 (6x - 5)°

0 = (11x)° + 1° - (12x)° + 10°

(12x - 11x)° = 1° + 10°

x° = 11°

x = 11

Contains fractions <br> 6v-5/8=7/8
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: v = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation:

\frac{6v-5}{8}  = \frac{7}{8}

You can multiply both sides by 8 to eliminate the fraction, which gives you this:

6v - 5 = 7

Then, you can solve for it:

6v = 12

v = 2

What is the equation of the line, in general form, that passes through the point (1,1) and has a y-intercept of 2.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

<h2>x + y - 2 = 0</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept.

Put the given y-intercept b = 2 and the coordinates of the point (1, 1) to the equation:

1=1m+2            <em>subtract 2 from both sides</em>

-1=m\to m=-1

The equation of a line:

y=-1x+2\to y=-x+2

The general form of an equation of a line:

Ax+By+C=0

Convert:

y=-x+2          <em>add x to both sides</em>

x+y=2         <em>subtract 2 from both sides</em>

x+y-2=0
