-6(x+6)-10=-2(5+4x)

1 answer:

3 0

Assuming you need to solve for x:

-6(x + 6) - 10 = -2(5 + 4x)

start by distributing your numbers outside the front of your parentheses:

-6x - 36 - 10 = -10 - 8x

then combine like terms:

-6x - 46 = -10 - 8x ... add 10 to both sides (which technically could have cancelled out in the step prior, but regardless)
-6x - 36 = -8x ... add 6x to both sides
-36 = -2x ... divide both sides by -2
x = 18

The sum of a number x and 5 equals 14.

Fudgin [204]

Sum means addition so the equation is x+5=14

To get the answer, just do 14-5 and the answer is 9

Can someone please help

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

an = a1 + (n-1)d

a_n = the nᵗʰ term in the sequence = 10

a_1 = the first term in the sequence = 5

d = the common difference between terms = 4

a10 = 5 + (10-1)4

a10 = 5 + (9)4

a10 = 5 + 36

a10 = 41

Consider angle θ in Quadrant II, where sinθ = 4/5 . What is the value of cosθ?

Kay [80]

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

sin theta=opposite/hypotenuse

4/5=opposite/hypotenuse

therefore opposite=4 and hypotenuse=5

for adjacent

using pythagoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

opposite^2 + adjacent^2 =hypotenuse^2

4^2 + adjacent^2 =5^2

16 + adjacent^2 =25

adjacent^2 =25-16

adjacent = $\sqrt{9$

adjacent=3

cos theta=adjacent/hypotenuse

=3/5

therefore the value of cos theta is 3/5

What are the x-intercepts of the equation? <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%28x%29%20%3D%20x-1%2Fx%2B4" id="TexFormula1"

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The only x-intercept is x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

$r(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+4}$

We can substitute y for r(x), to write in the notation:

$r(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+4}\\y=\frac{x-1}{x+4}$

To get y-intercept, we put x = 0

and

To get x-intercept, we put y =0

We want to find x-intercepts here, so we substitute 0 into y and solve for x. Shown below:

$y=\frac{x-1}{x+4}\\0=\frac{x-1}{x+4}\\0(x+4)=x-1\\0=x-1\\x=1$

The only x-intercept is x = 1
