Multiply each side by -5, then add 25 to each side.

Mashutka [201]3 years ago

Answer: Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression: \frac{-1}{5}(x-25)=7

According to the BODMAS (bracket, of, divide, multiply, add, subtract), to solve for x, we need to first multiply -5 on both sides, we get

x-25=7\times-5\\\Rightarrow x-25=-35

Now, add 25 on both sides, we get

x-25+25=7+25\\\Rightarrow\ x=32

Hence, the correct sequence of operations is "Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side".

The first one is A. Number 2 is d. Number 3 is b because 20x20=400 and 21x21=441 and when you add them together you get 841 or 29x29. Number 4 is b because complementary angles are also right angles, they have to add up to 90 degrees. Number 5 is a because every angle is less than 90 degree. Number 6 is 30 because 60+90+x = 180 and when you solve for x you will get 30 degrees.

Solve the equation kx+9=7 for x
Alika [10]

Answer:

x=-2/k

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve you need to make x on one side while the other variables or numbers on the other.

First, you need to move the 9 to the other side by subtracting 9 from both sides: kx+9-9=7-9

Simplify: kx=-2

Now you need to divide by k into both sides in order to eliminate the k on kx:

x=-2/k

Answer: x=-2/k

Hope this helps!

What number must you add to complete the square?
emmasim [6.3K]
X^2 + 2x = -1......take half of ur x term (2x), and square it. So we take half of 2, which is 1, and square it....1^2 = 1....so u would add 1 to both sides
