Whats the answer to 5(x−2)+3x−4= 38

Mathematics
1 answer:
Deffense [45]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x−2)+3x−4= 38

5 times x, 5 times -2 =

5x - 10 + 3x - 4 = 38

Combine like terms

5x + 3x = 8x

8x - 10 - 4 = 38

Add 10

8x -10 +10 -4 = 38 +10 =

8x -4 = 48

Add 4

8x -4 +4 = 48 +4

8x = 52

Divide by 8

8x/8 = 52/8 =

x = 6.5

Has a slope of -2/5 and goes through (-10,-1)​
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the point-slope form of a straight line equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-1)) = -2/5(x - -10)

y + 1 = -2/5(x + 10)

y  + 1 = -2/5x - 4

y = -2/5x - 5.

In standard form this is:

2x + 5y = -25.

Each small square on this scale weighs 1 unit. Each larger square weighs 10 units. The weight of the triangle x is unknown. The
Iteru [2.4K]

The equation to represent the relationship of the weights shown on the scale s 22 + x = 34

The weights are given as:

Small\ Square = 1

Larger\ Square = 10

The total weight on one side, where there are 4 small squares and 3 large squares is:

Total =4\times Small\ Square + 3 \times  Larger\ Square

Total =4\times 1 + 3 \times  10

Total =34

The total weight on the other side, where there are 2 small squares, 2 large squares and 1 triangle is:

Total =2\times Small\ Square + 2 \times  Larger\ Square + 1\times triangle

Total =2\times 1+ 2 \times  10+ 1\times triangle

Total =2+ 20+ 1\times triangle

Total =22+ 1\times triangle

Total =22+ triangle

The weight of the triangle is x.

So, we have:

Total =22+ x

The weights on both sides are equal, because the scale is balanced.

So, we have:

22 + x = 34

Hence, the equation is 22 + x = 34

Please help, I’m having trouble
maw [93]

Answer:

z=13

Step-by-step explanation:

SU         1

------   = ------

WV          2

z             1

-----   = ----------

z+13        2

Using cross products

2z = z+13

Subtract z from each side

2z-z = z+13-z

z = 13
