Test the number -7 to determine if it is a solution to the equation 4p - (p + 9) = 5p + 5.

1 answer:

6 0

Plug -7 in for where ever you see the variable p if the final answer is equal to each other then -7 is a solution to the equation

4 × (-7) - (-7 + 9) = 5 × (-7) + 5

Use the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

Parentheses

4 × (-7) - (-7 + 9) = 5 × (-7) + 5

4 × (-7) - 2 = 5 × (-7) + 5

There are no exponents so go to the next step

Multiplication (apply this from left to right)

4 × (-7) - 2 = 5 × (-7) + 5

-28 - 2 = 5 × (-7) + 5

-28 - 2 = 5 × (-7) + 5

-28 - 2 = -35 + 5

There is no division so go to the next step

Addition

-28 - 2 = -35 + 5

-28 - 2 = -30

Subtraction

-28 - 2 = -30

-30 = -30

-30 = -30

-7 is a solution to this equation because when evaluated both sides equals -30

Hope this helped!

What is lim x->-1 sin(pie/6))<br><br><br><br>this is a timed

dlinn [17]

sin(π/6) is independent of x, so

$\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1} \sin\left(\frac\pi6\right) = \sin\left(\frac\pi6\right) = \boxed{\frac12}$

Please help me with the question. Will mark brainliest.

Inessa05 [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Ok, so the mean price for Southtown is 72,800.

And the mean price for middle town is 54,900

So Southtown has the higher mean price.

Explanation:

To find the mean. You must first add up all the numbers, then divide the total by how many numbers you added up.

72,000 + 50,000 + 68,000 + 93,000 + 81,000 = 364,000

Then,

364,000/ 5 = 72,800

B.) It is 17,900

Explanation:

72,800 - 54,900 = 17,900

Hope this helps you out!!! : )

In a circle, what does the ratio A/r^2 represent?

Pepsi [2]

The ratio A/r² would represent $\pi$ which is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter.

You can see this because the area of a circle is $\pi$ r² and if you divided that by the radius squared, you are given pi which is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter.

Help!! I cant figure this out for some reason

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

x³ - 6x² + 18x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

= x³ - 2x² + 12x - 6 - (4x² - 6x + 4)

= x³ - 2x² + 12x - 6 - 4x² + 6x - 4 ← collect like terms

= x³ - 6x² + 18x - 10

Name a career in which one would have to use the phythagorean theorem.Give an example of when and how it would be used.Please wr

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The careers that use Pythagoras theorem are mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of squares of the two sides of right angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

Let a, b and c be the sides of a right triangle where c is the length of the hypotenuse.Then

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

Pythagoras theorem is used in daily life situations.

A surveyor looks through a telescope toward a measuring stick a fixed distance away, so that the telescope's line of sight and the measuring stick form a right angle.

It is also used to calculate the steepness of slopes and mountains.
