I'm not sure if that's x=4 or x= -4, but I'll solve both.
x=4:
11(4) - 4 = 44 - 4 = 40
x = -4:
11(-4) - 4 = -44 -4 = -48
Have an awesome day! :)
C. The first is a solution, but the second is not.
5x - y/3 = 13 ; (2,-9)
substitute the letters:
5(2) - (-9/3) = 13
10 - (-3) = 13 : note that deducting a number with a negative sign turns both sign as positive.
10 + 3 = 13 ;
13 = 13
5x - y/3 = 13 ; (3,-6)
5(3) - (-6/3) = 13
15 - (-2) = 13
15 + 2 = 13
17 = 13 not equal. not a solution
Answer:
the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
The sales tax she paid is $69.75, for a sofa whose sale price is $899.99.
Since $69.75 is the unknown (x) percent of $899.99, then we write this statement in math terms as:
69.75 = x * 899.99
solving for x we get:
x = 69.75 / 899.99
x = 0.0775
this is the decimal form of the percent, and in order to write it as percent, we multiply it by 100:
the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
20^2 + x^2 = 25^2
= 400 + x^2 = 625
= x^2 = 225
= x = 15
Solution is 10. How?
I dont know if it helps but tell me if it does
