Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

7(-8 + x) = 9 - 6x

To solve this equation, we need to get x by itself on one side of the equation.

-56 + 7x = 9 - 6x --- distribute the 7 across the parenthesis

-56 + 13x = 9 --- add 6x to both sides

13x = 65 --- add 56 to both sides

x = 5 --- divide both sides by 13

7(-8+x)=9-6x

distribute

-56 +7x = 9 -6x

add 6x to each side

-56 +13x = 9

add 56 to each side

13x =65

divide by 13

x=5

Find y give your answer in simplest form

$17 \sqrt{2}$

One of the angle of the triangle is 90 degrees which means it is a right angled triangle. Two angles are same i.e 45 degrees which means the angle is an isosceles triangle.

so, x = 17 (isosceles triangle)

then use pythagoreas theorem:

$y = \sqrt{x {}^{2} + 17 {}^{2} }$

and x = 17, so simplify and

$y = \sqrt{17 {}^{2} + 17 {}^{2} }$

$y = 17 \sqrt{2}$

The cost to rent a construction crane is $750 per day plus $250 per hour of use. What is the maximum number of hours the crane c

anzhelika [568]

Let's use x to represent the number of hours since we don't know that.

750+250x<2500
Subtract 750 from both sides.
250x<1750
Divide both sides by 250.
x<7
The most hours that they can do is 7, or it can be less.

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system?

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: C) (-3, -1)
X = -3 and y= -1

If you apply these values in the inequalities
y < 2x + 1
-3 < -2 + 1
-3 < -1
Since -3 is less than -1 , the values hold true for the first equation

y > -x-5
-3 > -1 - 5
-3 > -6
Since -3 is greater than -6, it also holds true for the 2nd equation

Which company’s tower holds the most water?

GuDViN [60]

Answer: First Option

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is:

$V = \pi(\frac{d}{2})^2*h$

Where d is the diameter of the cylinder and h is the height.

Notice that the term d is squared. This means that to increase the volume of a cylinder it is more efficient to increase its diameter as well. Therefore, look for the cylinder with the largest diameter among the options.

The first cylinder is 90 ft in diameter and 40 ft in height and its volume is

$V = \pi(\frac{90}{2})^2*40$

$V=254469\ ft^3$

You can verify that it is the tank that has the highest volume
