Hey there!

$Answer:\boxed{x=-9}$

$Explanation:$

$2x+20=-3x-25$

$2x+20+3x=-3x-25+3x\\5x+20=-25$ Add 3x to both sides

$5x+20-20=-25-20\\5x=-45$ Subtract 20 to both sides

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{-45}{5}$ Divide both sides by 5

$x=-9$

Hope this helps!

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

$55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the original bill. The problem statement tells us ...

20% × (b -6) = 9.80

Dividing by 20% gives ...

b -6 = 49.00

b = 55.00 . . . . . . . add 6

Their bill before the discount was $55.00.

___

<em>Comment on the tip</em>

It is generally considered better form to tip on the basis of the original bill before coupons and discounts.

Max is thinking of a number, which he calls n. He adds 8 and then doubles the sum. What is Max's final number if his starting nu

Sonja [21]

Based on the given situation, Max final number if his starting number is 7 is -4.5

<h3 /><h3>Algebra</h3>

Unknown number = n

He adds 8

n + 8

then doubles the sum

2(n + 8)

starting number = 7

So,

2(n + 8) = 7

2n + 16 = 7

2b = 7 - 16

2n = -9

n = -9/2

n = -4.5

Isoke is solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.10x2 + 40x – 13 = 0 10x2 + 40x = 13 A(x2 + 4x) = 13What is the

Elina [12.6K]

we have

$10x^{2} + 40x - 13 = 0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$10x^{2} + 40x =13$

Factor the leading coefficient

$10(x^{2} + 4x) =13$ ----------> the value of A is $10$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$10(x^{2} + 4x+4) =13+40$

$10(x^{2} + 4x+4) =53$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$10(x+2)^{2} =53$

$10(x+2)^{2} =53 \\ (x+2)^{2} =\frac{53}{10} \\ \\ x+2=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}} \\ \\ x1=-2+\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}}\\ \\ x2=-2-\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}}$

therefore

the answer is

the value of A is $10$
