Answer:

x = -19/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 = 3-5(x+6)

Distribute.

-8 = 3-5x-30

Combine like terms.

-8 = -27-5x

Add 27 on both sides.

-8 = -27-5x

+27 +27

19 = -5x

Divide by -5 on both sides.

19 = -5x

/-5 /-5

-19/5 = x

Hope this helps you a little bit! Sorry if it get confusing...have an amazing day c:

Let's solve your equation step by step

-8=3-5(x+6)

Step 1: simplify both sides of the equation

-8=3-5(x+6)

-8=3+(-5)(x)+(-5(6) (distribute)

-8=3+-5x+-30

-8=(-5x)+(3+-30) (combine like terms)

-8=-5x+-27

-8=-5x-27

Step 2: flip the equation

-5x-27=-8

Step 3: add 27 to both sides

-5x-27+27=-8+27

-5x=19

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = 19/-5

Answer : x= -19/5

In the figure, PQ is parallel to RS. The length of RP is 2 cm; the length of PT is 18 cm; the length of QT is 27 cm. What is the

Sidana [21]

Step 1

Find the value of TS

we know that

if PQ is parallel to RS. then triangles TRS and TPQ are similar

$\frac{TR}{TP} =\frac{TS}{QT}$

solve for TS

$TS =\frac{TR*QT}{TP}$

we have

$RP=2\ cm\\TP=18\ cm\\QT=27\ cm$

$TR=TP+RP\\TR=18+2=20\ cm$

substitute

$TS =\frac{20*27}{18}$

$TS =30\ cm$

Step 2

Find the value of SQ

we know that

$SQ=TS-QT$

we have

$TS =30\ cm$

$QT=27\ cm$

substitute

$SQ=30\ cm-27\ cm=3\ cm$

therefore

the answer is

the value of SQ is $3\ cm$

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

11 nickels, 15 dimes, 22 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

number of nickels = x

number of dimes = x+4

number of quarters = 2x

- - - - - -

total of nickels = 5x cents

total of dimes = 10x + 40 cents

total of quarters = 50x cents

- - - - - -

755 = 5x + 10x + 40 + 50x

755 = 65x + 40

715 = 65x

x = 11

x+4 = 15

2x = 22

Can yall help me out

Answer:

Option D, Yes, Devon should have evaluated f(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^3 + x^2 − 10x + 8

Step 1: Evaluate using F(3) NOT f(-3)

f(3) = 3^3 + 3^2 - 10(3) + 8

f(3) = 27 + 9 - 30 + 8

f(3) = 14

Since the factor is (x - 3) the x value is x - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3 -> x = 3 not x = -3

Answer: Option D, Yes, Devon should have evaluated f(3)
