Simplfy given equation using the distributive property 6 - (3x+10) + 4(2 - x) =15

Mathematics
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - (3x+10) + 4(2 - x) =15

Distribute

6 - 3x -10 +8 -4x = 15

Combine like terms

4 -7x = 15

Subtract 4 from each side

4 -7x-4 =15-4

-7x =11

Divide each side by -7

-7x/-7 = 11/-7

x = -11/7

15 POINTS!<br> What is the correct answer for Dean's problem? Explain where he went wrong.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The slope is 5/-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is y1-y2 over m1-m2 (rise over run). The first ordered pair is -2 (m1) and 11 (y1). We then subtract the second ordered pair (4 (m2) and -4 (y2)) from the first.

11 - (-4) = 11 + 4 = 15

-2 - 4 = -6

Remember, slope is rise over run (y over x), so the slope is 15/-6. Now, we must simplify. 15/-6 = 5/-2

Dean went wrong because he thought that slope was run over rise (x over y). If he had switched the two numbers, his answer would have been correct.

HELP PLEASE!!! Picture below!
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

7 (units)

Step-by-step explanation:

If E is placed at the number 6- then it would take 6 to get to 0. If B is placed at -1, then it would be one more backward to get to B- so it would take 7 to get from E to B.

A motorboat covers the distance from one pier to the other pier in 4 hours and the way back in 5 hours. What is the speed of the
aleksklad [387]
R = speed in still water
r + c = speed with current
r - c = speed against current

3.5(r + c) = 70
r + c = 20
c = 20 - r

4(r + c) = distance from pier to pier
5(r - c) = distance from pier to pier
4(r + c) = 5(r - c)
4(r + 20 - r) = 5(r - 20 + r)
80 = 10r - 100
180 = 10r
18 = r
The speed in still water is 18 km/hour

A triangle has sides with lengths of 8 millimeters, 15 millimeters, and 17 millimeters. Is it a right triangle?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this answer, use the pythagoras theorem. the pythagoras theorem states that a² + b² = c².

to see if this is a right angled triangle, we will use this formula, as the pythagoras theorem only works for right angled triangles.

we are going to work out c, which is always the hypotenuse. the hypotenuse is the longest side of a triangle, that is larger than the other values. we know that the hypotenuse of this triangle is 17, so let’s see if that’s the answer we get.

calculation:

a² + b² = c²

a = 8 millimetres

b = 15 millilitres

c = ?

8² + 15² = c²

64 + 225 = c²

64 + 225 = 289.

289 = c²

√289 = c

√289 = 17.

the pythagoras theorem correctly identified the length of the hypothenuse. as i said earlier, this theorem only works on right angled triangles, therefore, this triangle is right angled.
