The correct answer would be x= (-64)

AleksAgata [21]4 years ago

Answer:

x=-64

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{4} -16=-32

Add 16 to both sides.

\frac{x}{4} -16+16=-32+16

Simplify.

\frac{x}{4} =-16

Multiply both sides by 4.

\frac{4x}{4} =4(-16)

Simplify.

x=-64

How many solutions does the system have?<br> -87 + 2y = 8<br> - 40 +y=4
KiRa [710]
Please mark brainliest!

Answer is : No solution

A system of two equations can be classified as follows:

If the slopes are the same but the y-intercepts are different, the system has no solution.

If the slopes are different, the system has one solution.

If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are the same, the system has infinitely many solutions.

Definition Linear Equation in One Variable
A linear equation in one variable is an equation that can be written in the form ax+b=c, where a, b, and c are real numbers and .
Linear equations are also first-degree equations because the exponent on the variable is understood to be 1.
Objective 3: Identify Equations That Are Contradictions and Those That Are Identities
A conditional equation is an equation that is true for some values of the variable but not for others. Every linear equation that is a conditional equation has one solution. However, not every linear equation in one variable has a single solution. There are two other cases: no solution and the solution set of all real numbers.
Consider the equation x  x 1. No matter what value is substituted for x, the resulting value on the right side will always be one greater than the value on the left side. Therefore, the equation can never be true. We call such an equation a contradiction. It has no solution. Its solution set is the empty or null set, denoted by { }
or , respectively.
Now consider the equation xx2x. The expression on the left side of the equation simplifies to the expression on the right side. No matter what value we substitute for x, the resulting values on both the left and right sides will always be the same. Therefore, the equation is always true. We call such an equation an identity.

Two employees are painting a boat. One uses ¾ gallon of paint each hour, one uses 1 ⅔ gallon of paint every 2 hours. How much pa
Ad libitum [116K]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

First employee: 3 gallons

Second employee: 3 1/3 gallons

Total: 3+3\frac{1}{3}=3+\frac{10}{3}=\frac{19}{3}

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement we know:

First employee uses 3/4 gallon each our, for 4 hours the will use:

\frac{3}{4}*4=\frac{12}{4}=3 gallons

Second employee uses 1 2/3 (5/3) gallon every 2 hours, meaning 5/6 gallon each hour.

\frac{5}{6}*4=\frac{20}{6}=\frac{10}{3}=3\frac{1}{3}gallons

Remember, to sum (algebraic sum) fractions we should follow the next steps:

First: Multiply both fractions denominators by each other in order to get the denominator of the new fraction.

Second: Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.

Third: Multiply the denominator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.

Fourth: Sum (algebraic sum) each result and divide it into the number obtained from the first step (denominator of the new fraction).

Example:

3+\frac{1}{3} =\frac{(3*3)+(1*1)}{3*1}=\frac{9+1}{3}=\frac{10}{3}

Have a nice day!

In order to select new board members, the French club held an election. 25% of the 84 members of the club voted. How many member
Sloan [31]

Answer: 21 people voted

Step-by-step explanation:

an easy way to do this is simply multiply 84 * 0.25.

This gives you \frac{1}{4} of the original amount

in this case 84×0.25 = 21

This means that 21 people voted

Given that the triangles are similar, find the value of x. Find the length of NR.<br> S<br> T<br> 40<br> 60<br> R<br> 2x-2<br> 8
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

NR = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both trjangles are similar, therefore, it follows that their corresponding side lengths would be proportional to each other. Thus:

\frac{40}{8} = \frac{60}{2x - 2}

5 = \frac{60}{2x - 2}

Cross multiply

5(2x - 2) = 60

10x - 10 = 60

10x = 60 + 10 (addition property of equality)

10x = 70

Divide both sides by 10

x = 7

✔️NR = 2x - 2

Plug in the value of x

NR = 2(7) - 2 = 14 - 2

NR = 12
