5x- 3(x-5)=13

5x-3x+15=13

2x=-2

x is  -2

Your mistake is that you forgot to add when you multiply 3 and 5

and negative and negative make positive

hope this helps

A line of best fit predicts that when x equals 28 y will equal 27.255 but y actually equals 26 what is the residual in this case
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The answer is -1.255 for residual value.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are tasked to solve for the residual value given that when x equals 29, y will be equals to 27.255. But, when it is tested, y actual value is 26. The formula in solving residual is shown below:

Residual value = Observed value - predicted value

Residual value =  26 - 27.255

Residual values = -1.255

An ice cream cone has height of 6 inches and a diameter of 2 inches what is the volume in cubic inches of the ice cream
GrogVix [38]

keeping in mind that radius is half the diameter, we know this cone has a diameter of 2 inches, so it has a radius of 1 inch, kinda small really for ice-cream, but anyhow.

\textit{volume of a cone}\\\\ V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=1\\ h=6 \end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{\pi (1)^26}{3}\implies V=2\pi \implies \underset{\textit{rounded up}}{V\approx 6}
