Answer:
k = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the given value of x in the equation, and solve the resulting equation for k.
2(5 -3) +k(1 +2·5) = k - 5 - 1
2(2) +k(11) = k -6 . . . . simplify a bit
10k = -10 . . . . . . . . . . add -4-k to both sides
k = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
The value of k is -1.

Use k = -1 in the original equation and solve for x.
2(x -3) -(1 +2x) = -1 -x -1
2x -6 -1 -2x = -x -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 7 -2 = 5 . . . . . . add x+7; answer checks OK
The answer would be 2,700,000.
This is because of the rules of rounding.
If a digit is 4 or smaller, it rounds down.
If a digit is 5 or more, it rounds up.
The number is 2, 746, 052 so it stays at 700,000.
TLDR: 2,700,000

Answer: A. 9</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
Draw in the segments AO and OC.
Triangle ABO is congruent to triangle CBO. We can prove this through the use of the HL theorem. HL stands for hypotenuse leg.
Since the triangles are congruent, this means the corresponding pieces AB and BC are the same length.
Then we can say:
AB+BC = AC .... segment addition postulate
AB+AB = AC .... plug in BC = AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 18
AB = 18/2 .... divide both sides by 2
AB = 9
In short, the chord AC is bisected by the perpendicular radius drawn in the diagram. So all we do is cut AC = 18 in half to get AB = 9.
Answer:
258 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate the speed of the boat with (333km/7 hours) = 47.57 km/hr.
Assuming the same speed, the boat would travel (47.57 km/hr)*(6 hr) = 258 km
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t and u represent the tens and units digits, respectively.
t = u + 2 . . . . the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 2
t + 2u = 17 . . . . the sum of the tens digit and twice the units digit is 17
Substituting for t in the second equation, we get ...
(u +2) +2u = 17
3u = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 2
u = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
t = u+2 = 7
The number is 75.
