No because if you subtract 4 from -69 it equals -73. then if you put -73 divided by -8 it equals positive 9.125.

Or if you put in 10 where the x is you would do 4-8 *10=-64
4-80=-69
-76=-69

4 - 8x = - 69
-8x = -69 - 4
-8x = - 73
x = -73/-8
x = 9.125.....no, 10 is not a solution

or, instead of solving for x, we can just sub in 10 for x and see if it makes the equation true.

4 - 8x = -69
4 - 8(10) = -69
4 - 80 = -69
-76 = -69 (incorrect...therefore, it is not a solution)

The total area of Canada is 9 984 670 km2. Calculate the side length of a square with the same area. Show your work.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

3159.853 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says a square has an area of 9,984,670 km^2, which means that all sides are the same length. So you can use the equation:

9984670 = (x)(x) which rearranges to 998470 = x^2

get the square root and you get:

x = 3159.853 km

If p(x) = x2 – 1 and q(x) = 5(x-1) which expression is equivalent to (p – q)(x)?

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x) is, $x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $p(x) = x^2 -1$ and q(x) = 5(x-1)

To find the expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x):

here p and q both are function assuming;

we can write the expression :

(p-q)(x) = p(x) - q(x) = $x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)$

therefore, the expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x) is; $x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)$

rock is thrown upward with a velocity of 27 meters per second from the top of a 23 meter high cliff and it misses the cliff on t

ahrayia [7]

the rock will be at 11 meters from the ground level after 5.92 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The motion of the rock is a free-fall motion, since the rock is acted upon the force of gravity only. Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, so its position at time t is given by the equation:

$y=h+ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$
