Mathematics

N76 [4]3 years ago

Answer: x=5/3

Step-by-step explanation: -2x = x - 5

Subtract x from both sides.

−2x−x=−5

Simplify −2x−x to −3x−3x.

−3x=−5

Divide both sides by −3.

x=-5/-3

Two negatives make a positive.

x=5/3

In decimal form the answer is 1.666667

Hope this helps, also, have a blessed day!

Answer:

x=5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract x from both sides so you have -3x=-5. Then divide both sides by 3 and you are left with x=5/3

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

(12x - 6)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x-1)/5 => (12x - 6)/5 because of the distributive property.

You cannot simplify farther after you reach (12x - 6)/5.

Solve the system and enter the smallest x-coordinate first
ankoles [38]
Answer:
(2,-3)(6,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use substitution to get the equation: x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
Solve:
x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
x^2 = 8x-12
x^2-8x+12 = 0 (we now have a polynomial)
(x-6)(x-2) = 0 (set each equation to equal 0 and solve)
x-6 = 0 --> x=6
x-2 = 0 --> x=2
To get the Y coordinates:
y=2(2)-7 --> y = -3
y = 2(6)-7 --> y = 5

Check work:
5 = 6^2-6(6)+5 --> 5 = 36-36 +5 --> 5=5
-3 = 2^2-6(2)+5 --> -3 = 4-12+5 --> -3=-3

"If &lt; A and then m&lt; A + m/B = 90°"<br> A. Complement Theorem<br> B. Definition of a Right Angle<br> C. Congruent Complemen
9966 [12]

If < A and then m< A + m/B = 90°, then D. Definition of Complementary Angles

<h3>What is a complementary angle?</h3>

When the sum of two angles is 90°, the angles are said to be complementary. In other words, if two angles add up to form a right angle, they are called complementary angles. The two angles are said to complement each other in this context.

Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180 degrees, whereas complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90 degrees.

An angle measuring 72 degrees has a complement of 18 degrees.

Therefore, based on the information given, the correct option is D.
