Mathematics

ANSWER

x=-5 or just -5

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION

ok, so the equation is -20=5(x+1), so first you do the distributive property and your new equation should be -20=5x+5

Then you subtract 5 from both sides and your new equation should be -25=5x

Then you divide 5 from both sides and your final answer should be x=-5 or -5

CHECH YOUR WORK

To check your work just plug in -5 into the equation, so -20=5(-5+1)

-20=5(-4) and the final equation is -20=-20. So the answer of -5 is correct

hope this helped!

Are all sides of the right angle have sides that are parallel
nydimaria [60]

-- The two sides of a right <u>angle</u> intersect and make the angle.
So do the sides of any other angle. So they can't be parallel.

-- No two sides of a right <u>triangle</u> ... or any other triangle ...can be parallel.

What is the value of x?<br><br>A. 155°<br>B. 60°<br>C. 35<br>D. 25°​
Harman [31]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should see that the bottom right corner is an angle on the other side. So subtract 180 from 95 to get 85. Since all angles in a triangle add up to 180, You do 85 + 60 + x = 180. You simplify further to get 145 + x = 180.

Subtracting 145 from both sides leaves you with x = 35, which gives you C.

So C is the correct answer.

find the length of the side of square with an area of 121 in2. A.484 in, B.30.25 in, C.11 in, D.6.5 in
marishachu [46]
For a square, the area is the square of the side length (length x width = area, but in a square length = width). That means the side length is the square root of the area.

In this case the side length is the square root of 121, which is 11. Answer is C.
