Answer:

it should be the first one -28

Step-by-step explanation:

7(8-x)=-5x

distribute the 7 to 8 and -x

56-7x=-5x

then you add 7x to both sides

56=-2x

lastly you divide both sides by -2

-28 = x

hope this helps

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

7(8 - x) = -5x

56 - 7x = -5x                 Distribute 7 to the parenthesis

56 = 2x                         Add -7x to both sides

28 = x                           Divide 2 to both sides

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

length = 78 feet

width = 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using one variable and an expression, you can set up an equation equal to the perimeter to find the measure of each side:

width = 'w'

length = '42ft longer than it was wide' = w + 42

The general formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2w + 2l

Plugging in the given values and variables:

228 = 2w + 2(w + 42)

Distribute: 228 = 2w + 2w + 84

Combine like terms:  144 = 4w

Divide and solve:  36 = w

w = 36 ft

l = 36 + 42 = 78 ft

disa [49]

Answer: \frac{-1}{3} < n < \frac{5}{3}

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

| 3n - 2 | - 2 < 1

<u>               +2 </u> <u>+2 </u>

| 3n - 2 |       < 3

3n - 2 < 3     and     3n - 2 > -3

<u>      +2 </u> <u>+2   </u>              <u>     +2 </u>  <u> +2 </u>

3n       < 5      and     3n      > -1

       n <  \frac{5}{3}       and         n > \frac{-1}{3}

\frac{-1}{3} < n < \frac{5}{3}

Goshia [24]

First question seems incomplete :

Answer:

40 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Question B:

Number of boys = 6

Number of girls = 4

Number of people in committee = 3

Number of ways of selecting committee with atleast 2 girls :

We either have :

(2 girls 1 boy) or (3girls 0 boy)

(4C2 * 6C1) + (4C3 * 6C0)

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

4C2 = 4! ÷ 2!2! = 6

6C1 = 6! ÷ 5!1! = 6

4C3 = 4! ÷ 1!3! = 4

6C0 = 6! ÷ 6!0! = 1

(6 * 6) + (4 * 1)

36 + 4

= 40 ways

Artemon [7]
For this case you can solve the problem by applying a simple rule of three in which we have
 520 ---> 100%
 800 ---> x

 Clearing x we have
 x = (800/520) * 100 = 154%
 the percentage increase in cost was
 154-100 = 54%
 answer
 the percentage increase in cost was 54%
