Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−3)+5=3x+1+4

(3)(x)+(3)(−3)+5=3x+1+4(Distribute)

3x+−9+5=3x+1+4

(3x)+(−9+5)=(3x)+(1+4)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−4=3x+5

3x−4=3x+5

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

3x−4−3x=3x+5−3x

−4=5

Step 3: Add 4 to both sides.

−4+4=5+4

0=9

The flag of a country contains an isosceles triangle. (Recap that an isosceles triangle contains two angles with the same measur

sesenic [268]

Answer:

30°, 30° and 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question.

let x be the measure of each congruent base angle , then

the third angle = 3x + 30

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + 30 + x + x = 180, that is

5x + 30 = 180 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

5x = 150 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 30

Thus

The 2 congruent bas angles are each = 30°

The third angle = 3x + 30 = 3(30) + 30 = 90 + 30 = 120°

1) How is unit rate related to slope or rise over run?

quester [9]

The unit rate is a ratio of change in y and into the change on x. It can also be the rise to run or the slope.

DUE IN 5 MINUTES PLZ HELP LOL:)

katen-ka-za [31]

1) Yes

2) 5 minutes

3) 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Yes because, using the vertical line test, the line will cut the graph once meaning that the graph will form a function

2: 5 minutes because the horizontal line represents that she rested, therefore she was at the park for five minutes

3: 2 minutes because she traveled and reached home between 6 and 8 minutes

A granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredients

GuDViN [60]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression that modeled the relationship between these quantities (calories from grams of carbohydrate and the rest of the ingredients) as

4c+5 = 27

From the equation, the constant value of 5 represents the calories in grams of the rest of the ingredients present in the bite.

Let us calculate the value of c from the equation

4c+5 = 27

4c + 5- 5 = 27-5

4c = 22

c = 22/4

c = 5.5

This means that the total calories of carbohydrate the granola bite contains is 4(5.5) i.e 21 calories of carbohydrate

Note that 8 cannot be the solution to the equation because for us to eliminate 5 from both sides of the equation, we need to subtract it from both sides not add. If 5 was added to both sides, the value of c would have been (32/4 i.e 8) which would have been wrong.

The area of a regular octagon is 35 cm 2 what is the area of a regular octagon with sides three times as large

Maurinko [17]

The area of a polygon = n*side^2 / (4 * tan(180/n))
where "n" is the number of sides

Let's calculate area for side = 2
area = 8*2^2 / (4 * tan(180/8))
area = 32 / (4 * tan(22.5))
area = 32 / 4*0.41421
 area = 19.3138746047 

Now, let's calculate area for side = 6
area = 8*6^2 / (4 * tan(180/8))
area = 288 / 1.65684 
area = 173.824871442 

 173.824871442 / 19.3138746047 = 9

So, the area would be 9 times larger.

ALSO, looking at the formula
n*side^2 / (4 * tan(180/n))
we can see that the side length appears just once in the formula and we are to square it in the calculation. So, if we increase the side length is increased by 3, then the area increases by 3^2 or 9.
