Solve the equation below 3x—5(x+2)=-40

Mathematics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

3x - 5(x) - 5(2) = -40

3x - 5x - 10 = -40

<u>Step 2:  Combine like terms</u>

-2x - 10 = -40

<u>Step 3:  Add 10 to both sides</u>

-2x - 10 + 10 = -40 + 10

<u>Step 4:  Divide both side by -2</u>

-2x / -2 = -30 / -2

x = 15

The vertices of a triangle are labeled clockwise A(–5, 3), B(6, 1), and C(–2, –3). How could you show that the figure is a right
mafiozo [28]

Explanation:

When the points are plotted on a graph, it is easy to see that the slope of AC is -2 and the slope of BC is 1/2. These slope values have a product of -1, so the corresponding line segments are perpendicular to each other.

___

If you have studied vectors, you can find the dot product of AC with BC:

  AC = (-5, 3) -(-2, -3) = (-3, 6)

  BC = (6, 1) -(-2, -3) = (8, 4)

The dot product is ...

  (-3, 6)·(8, 4) = (-3)(8) + (6)(4) = -24+24 = 0

When the dot product of vectors is zero, they are perpendicular.

Question 1
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

No, it is NOT a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A functions' inputs are assigned to exactly one output.

We are given the points:

{(8,2) (4,-3) (6,4) (8,1)}

The input of 8 is repeating.

The given relation is not a function.  

Hope this helps!

<span>1. 5564÷91
I know that 9 * 6 = 56
5564 rounds to 5600
91 rounds to 9
Since 56/9 = 6, then 5600/90 is the same as 560/9 = 60
The estimate is 60

2. </span><span>5391÷25
5391 sounds to 5400
25 is 1/4 of 100.
That means when you divide by 25, you can divide by 100 and multiply by 4.
5400/100 = 54
54 * 4 = 216
Estimate: 216

3. </span><span>explain how to estimate 498÷12

498 is little more than 480, so 498/12 is little more than 40

4. </span><span>which is the closest estimate for 2130÷ 33
A.7 B.17 C.70 D.700

2130/33
Round off the numerator and denominator to

Reduce the fraction
210/3
Since I know that 21/3 = 7, then 210/3 = 70
Estimate: 70

Recycling one glass bottle can save enough energy to power an oven for 7.5 minutes. A glass bottle weighs 500 grams. Glass used
musickatia [10]

This is a units conversion problem: you have time and you want to convert that to money. Any units conversion problem involves multiplication by 1 in various forms. When you are given 7.5 min = 1 bottle = 500g, you know that (500 g)/(7.5 min) = 1 because the numerator and denominator are equal. (Of course, you are aware that 500 g = 0.500 kg.) The idea is to choose the forms of 1 that cause units you don't want to cancel, leaving only the units you do want.


6\,h\times \dfrac{0.500\,kg}{7.5\,min}\times \dfrac{60\,min}{1\,h}\times \dfrac{5\,p}{1\,kg}\\\\=\dfrac{6\cdot 0.500\cdot 60\cdot 5\,p}{7.5\cdot 1\cdot 1}=120\,p


The glass for recycling that would save enough energy to power an oven for 6 hours costs 120p.

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x) is a two-parameter family of solutions of the second-order DE y'' + 25y = 0. If possible, find a sol
TEA [102]

Answer:

y = 2cos5x-9/5sin5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the solution to the differential equation y'' + 25y = 0 to be

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x). In order to find the solution to the differential equation given the boundary conditions y(0) = 1, y'(π) = 9, we need to first get the constant c1 and c2 and substitute the values back into the original solution.

According to the boundary condition y(0) = 2, it means when x = 0, y = 2

On substituting;

2 = c1cos(5(0)) + c2sin(5(0))

2 = c1cos0+c2sin0

2 = c1 + 0

c1 = 2

Substituting the other boundary condition y'(π) = 9, to do that we need to first get the first differential of y(x) i.e y'(x). Given

y(x) = c1cos5x + c2sin5x

y'(x) = -5c1sin5x + 5c2cos5x

If y'(π) = 9, this means when x = π, y'(x) = 9

On substituting;

9 = -5c1sin5π + 5c2cos5π

9 = -5c1(0) + 5c2(-1)

9 = 0-5c2

-5c2 = 9

c2 = -9/5

Substituting c1 = 2 and c2 = -9/5 into the solution to the general differential equation

y = c1 cos(5x) + c2 sin(5x) will give

y = 2cos5x-9/5sin5x

The final expression gives the required solution to the differential equation.
