Hope this helps, even though I do feel that it could be wrong. Welp, I gave it my best shot.

8x-5(x-1)=4(x+2)

Distribute -5 and 4

8x-5x+5=4x+8

Now combine like terms

8x-5x= 3x

3x+5=4x+8

Subtract 3x from both sides

5=x+8

Subtract 8

-3=x

You can do symmetric property a=b then b=a

So the answer is

X=-3

Pick a expression that matches the written description Subtract a from the quotient of 6 and B
Luba_88 [7]

An expression that is equivalent to the statement Subtract a from the quotient of 6 and B is 6/b - a

<h3>How to write equivalent expression</h3>

Given statement

Subtract a from the quotient of 6 and B

  • The quotient of 6 and B can be written as 6/B

  • a subtracted from 6/B is written as

6/B - a

Therefore, the correct option equivalent to the statement is option A) 6/B - a

Butyric acid ( c3h7cooh) is a weak acid . what is the ph of a 0.0250 m solution of this acid. ka = 1.5 x 10-5 (2 decimal places)
Wewaii [24]

The pH of the weak acid is 3.21

Butyric acid is known as a weak acid, we need the concentration of [H+] formula of weak acid which is given by this equation :

[H^{+}]=\sqrt{Ka . Ma}

where [H+] is the concentration of ion H+, Ka is the weak acid ionization constant, and Ma is the acid concentration.

Since we know the concentration of H+, the pH can be calculated by using

pH = -log[H+]

From question above, we know that :

Ma = 0.0250M

Ka = 1.5 x 10¯⁵

By using the equation, we can determine the concentration of [H+]

[H+] = √(Ka . Ma)

[H+] = √(1.5 x 10¯⁵ . 0.0250)

[H+] = 6.12 x 10¯⁴ M

Substituting the value of [H+] to get the pH

pH = -log[H+]

pH = -log(6.12 x 10¯⁴)

pH = 3.21

Hence, the pH of the weak acid c3h7cooh is 3.21

at a grocery store, an uncooked beef roast is on sale for $5.99/lb. At the same grocery store, prepared roast beef is available
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$7.58/lb

Step-by-step explanation:

raw roast: $5.99 per lb

deli roast: $2.99 for 100g

We know the price per lb of the raw roast.

Let's find the price per lb of the deli roast.

1 lb = 454 grams

454 grams / 100 grams = 4.54

1 lb is 4.54 times 100 g

If we multiply the price of 100g of deli roast by 4.54, we get teh price per lb.

$2.99/lb * 4.54 = $13.57/lb

raw roast: $5.99/lb

deli roast: $13.57/lb

difference in price of 1 lb: $13.57 - $5.99 = $7.58

Answer: $7.58/lb

Line I has a slope of 13/7. The line through which of the following pair
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the set of points that will yield a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of Line L because perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. The negative reciprocal of 13/7 is -7/13. Which set of points will produce this result? The formula for finding the slope is:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Consider the second set of coordinates.

(2 - (-5))/(-7 - 6) = (2 + 5)/(-13) = -7/13

The second set of coordinates satisfy the condition.
