Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest first step is to remove the brackets. Other things could be done, but they are done just because you can.

4x = 7 + 3*2x - 5*3        Just to show you more, I'll keep going.

4x = 7 + 6x - 15              Combine the minus 15 and 7

4x = 6x + 7 - 15

4x = 6x - 8                     Now add 8 to both sides. It's a toss up of what to do

4x + 8 = 6x - 8 + 8

4x + 8 = 6x                    Subtract 5x from both sides

4x - 4x + 8 = 6x - 4x

8 = 2x                             Divide by 2

x = 4

The steps usually follow this order.

What is the slope of the line y = - 5/4x - 5 ?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

-5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is rise over run which means that the -5 will apply to your y values and the 4 will apply to your x values. This slope would have a point move down 5 units and to the right 4 units to get the location of the next point when going left to right. Because the slope contains a negative, the slope will be angled downward left to right. The negative only applies to the 5.

There are 2,100 bacteria in a circular petri dish. The dish has a radius of 40 millimeters. What is the approximate population d
pochemuha
A petri dish is simply a circle; thus, we use the formula of the area of the circle which is <span>πr^2. 
Given r = 40 mm
A = </span>π(40)^2 = <span>5026.55 sq. mm
</span>
Population density = bacteria count / area
PD = 2,100 / <span>5026.55
PD = </span><span>0.417782 bacteria / mm sq.

Therefore, the answer is approximately 0.418 </span><span>bacteria per square millimeter.</span>
