Solve the equation 2(x+5)=-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
erma4kov [3.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 2 into the brackets:

2x + 10 = -2

leave the 2x alone on one side:

2x = -2 -10

2x = -12

divide both sides by 2:

x = -6

Answer:

5 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert a mixed number 2 19

to a improper fraction: 2 1/9 = 2 19 = 2 · 9 + 19 = 18 + 19 = 199

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 9. Whole number 2 equally 2 * 99 = 189

b) Add the answer from previous step 18 to the numerator 1. New numerator is 18 + 1 = 19

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 19) over the denominator 9.

Two and one ninth is nineteen ninths

Add: 19

9+ (-29) = 19 + (-2)9= 179

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(9, 9) = 9. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 9 × 9 = 81. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.

In words - nineteen ninths plus minus two ninths = seventeen ninths.

Conversion a mixed number 3 59

to a improper fraction: 3 5/9 = 3 59= 3 · 9 + 59= 27 + 51 = 329

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 3 by the denominator 9. Whole number 3 equally 3 * 99 = 279

b) Add the answer from previous step 27 to the numerator 5. New numerator is 27 + 5 = 32

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 32) over the denominator 9.

Three and five ninths is thirty-two ninths

Add: the result of step No. 2 + 32

9= 179+ 329 = 17 + 329 = 499

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(9, 9) = 9. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 9 × 9 = 81. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.

In words - seventeen ninths plus thirty-two ninths = forty-nine ninths.

. The total area of a rectangular mural has been extended by x feet. The expression to represent the area is 5.5(7.5 + x). Rewri
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: <u>Distributive</u> <u>Property</u> describes how to solve expressions like a(b +c). According to the property, multiplying the sum of two or more numbers by a number will result in the same as multiplying each number and then add the products. For example:

                 11(2 + 4)

11(6) = 66                 22 + 44 = 66

So, for the expression that represents the area:

5.5(7.5 + x) = 41.25 + 5.5x

As the expression has non-numerical terms, the distributive property will be multiply each term and then add the products.

The expressio for area of a rectangular mural is 41.25 + 5.5x.

(4x+1)(3x-7) yup it hurts
musickatia [10]

Answer:

12x^2-25x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each term by its counterpart in the parenthesis.

4x*3x and 4x*-7

1*3x and 1*-7

This gives you 12x^2-4x*7+3x-7 when the like terms are combined.

Collect the like terms, which will give you 12x^2-25x-7

What is the rate of decay for the function f(x) =2(0.95)^x ( x is on top of the parentheses)
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The decay rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a substance is decaying at the rate of r% per hour from the initial value of P for t hours, then the final value of the substance is given by the function  

f(t) = P(1 - \frac{r}{100})^{t} ........... (1)

Comparing this equation with the original equation given as

f(x) = 2(0.95)^{x} ............ (2) we get,

(1 - \frac{r}{100}) = 0.95

⇒ \frac{r}{100} = 0.05

⇒ r = 5%.

Therefore, the decay rate is 5%. (Answer)
