What is the solution to -2.5(4x+4)=-6 using distributive property

Mathematics
1 answer:
max2010maxim [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the -2.5 throughout the equation.

-2.5(4x + 4) = -6

-2.5(4x) + -2.5(4) = -6

-10x - 10 = -6                  -Add 10 to both sides

-10x = 4                         -Divide both sides by -10

x = -0.4

Hope this helps you!

jalil and Victoria are each asked to solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x. Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x becaus
Pie

Answer:

x = \frac{d+c}{a - b}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: ax – c = bx + d

Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x because  x has a different unknown coefficient.

Victoria t. Victoria believes there is a solution

Solving the equation:

ax-c = bx + d

ax - bx= d+c

(a - b)x = d+c

x = \frac{d+c}{a - b}

So, this shows x can be isolated .

Victoria was right .

It was not possible to isolate x if the coefficients of x would be same .

But in the given equation the coefficients of x are not same .

So, Victoria is right.

A tourist looks out from the observation deck of the Space Needle in Seattle. The deck is at a height of 520 ft. She sees her fr
evablogger [386]

Answer:

40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The deck is at a height of 520 ft. She sees her friend on the ground below at an angle of depression of 85.6 degrees.

To Find : What is the distance between the two? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Solution :

Refer the attached figure

Height of deck =AB =520 ft.

Angle of depression ∠C = 85.6°

We are supposed to find length of BC i.e. distance between two.

We will use trigonometric ratios :

tan \theta = \frac{perpendicular}{base}

tan 85.6^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{BC}

12.99615= \frac{520}{BC}

BC= \frac{520}{12.99615}

BC= 40

Thus the distance between two is 40 feet
