Answer: -6/7

Step-by-step explanation: 5 - 6x = 8x + 17

                                             5 + - 6x = 8x + 17

                                            -6x + 5 = 8x + 17

                                            -6x + 5 - 8x = 8x + 17 - 8x

                                            -14x + 5 = 17

                                            -14x + 5 - 5 = 17 - 5

                                           -14x = 12

                                            -14x/-14 = 12/-14

                                             x = -6/7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given one equation, we have to find the other equation and solve each for 200, and whichever has the lower x is the winner

for Jayden we are given

(0, 48), (1, 56), (2, 64), (3, 72), (4, 80)

This looks to be a line. The y values are each separated by a common difference

We can use two points to describe the line

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{80-48}{4-0} = \frac{32}{4} = 8\\  K = 8m + b\\48 = 8(0) + b\\b = 48\\so\\K = 8m + 48

Now we can set both K = 8m + 48 and K = m^2 + 10 equal to 200

200 = 8m + 48\\152 = 8m \\m = \frac{152}{8} = 19

200 = m^2 + 10\\m^2 = 190\\m = \sqrt{190} = 13.784

Solve for x. 8/9x=32 Enter your answer in the box. x =
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

(8/9)x = 32

Solving for x

Multiply through by 9

(8/9)×9 ×x = 32×9

8x = 32×9

Divide through by 8

8x/8 = 32×9/8

x = 36

Pascale leaves the office to go home. She walks 12 blocks due north and then 9 blocks due west. How far is she from the office?
Stells [14]

Answer:

15 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve the right triangle

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

12^2 + 9^2 = h^2

144+81 = h^2

225= h^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(225) = sqrt(h^2)

15 = h
