Step 1 : (5x-4)/2 = 2x-1                     [Given]

Step 2 : ((5x-4)/2) × 2 = 2 × (2x-1)                 [Multiplicative Property of Equality i.e. by multiplying both sides of the equation by same number]

Step 3 : (5x-4) = 4x-2                     [By Distributive Property]

Step 4 : 5x - 4 + 4 = 4x - 2 + 4                     [By addition property of equality i.e.  by adding both sides of the equation by same number]

⇒ 5x = 4x + 2

Step 5 : 5x - 4x = 4x + 2 - 4x                      [By subtraction property of equality i.e.  by subtracting both sides of the equation by same number]

⇒ x = 2

Find the value of x pls
Basile [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see it a right angled triangle

so <y =90°

Now

3x + 11° + 25° + 90° = 180°{being sum of angles of triangle}

3x + 126° = 180°

3x = 54°

X = 18°

Can someone answer this question for me?
hjlf

Answer:

That is a right angles triangle which means to get the area: multiply the base(14.1)to be the height (9.8) divided by 2.

Formula : half the base times the height given. Your answer is to be squared and don't forget the correct unit.

The following table shows the distance from school as a function time
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

27,0 the distance away from the school​

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the formula for equation of a straight line;

y=mx+c where c is the y intercept , and m is the gradient

From the graph, the slope is negative where speed decreases with increase in time

Find the gradient by applying the formula;

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Taking y₁=24, y₂=20, x₁=9, x₂=12

Then;

m=\frac{20-24}{12-9} =\frac{-4}{3}

write the equation of the function as ;

y=mx+c, c=36( the y-intercept when x=0) hence the equation is;

y=mx+c\\\\y=\frac{-4}{3}x+36

To get x-intercept, substitute value of y with 0

y=mx+c\\\\\\y=-\frac{4}{3} +36\\\\\\0=-\frac{4}{3} x+36\\\\\frac{4}{3}x =36\\\\\\4x=36*3\\\\\\x=108/4=27

This means that the x-intercept is 27 ,and this means you will require 27 minutes to cover the whole distance to the school.
