There were 6.04 gallons of water in Karen's bathtub. Then 0.24 gallons drained out. How much water is left in the bathtub?

The first three steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations algebraically are shown.

jolli1 [7]

Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0

(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2

Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17

y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1

Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)

Given that $x \le -7,$ identify all the correct conclusions. (A) $3x \le -21.$ (B) $3x \ge -21.$ (C) $-3x \le 21.$ (D) $-3x \ge

exis [7]

Answer:

Options A and D are correct choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality $x\leq -7$ and we are asked to find the correct options from our given choices.

Let us solve inequalities in our given options one by one to see which of these matches with our given inequality.

(A) $3x\leq -21$

$x\leq \frac{-21}{3}$

$x\leq -7$

We can see that option A gives the same answer as our given inequality, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

(B) $3x\geq -21$

$x\geq \frac{-21}{3}$

$x\geq -7$

This inequality represented in option C gives solution that x should be greater than or equal to -7, which is opposite to our given inequality, therefore, option B is incorrect.

(C) $-3x\leq 21$

Dividing inequality by a negative number swaps inequality sign.

$x\geq \frac{21}{-3}$

$x\geq -7$

This inequality gives solution that x should be greater than or equal to -7, which is opposite to our given inequality, therefore, option C is incorrect.

(D) $-3x\geq 21$

Dividing inequality by a negative number swaps inequality sign.

$x\leq \frac{21}{-3}$

$x\leq -7$

We can see that option D gives the same answer as our given inequality, therefore, option D is the correct choice.

If all of the angles of a hexagon are congruent, then what is the measure of each angle?

Nastasia [14]

<span>he total number of internal degrees is (n-2)*180 = 4*180 = 720 degrees.
-----
let a = one of the congruent angles.
you have:
angles 1, 2, and 3 = a.
-----
if a = 2 * angle 4, then angle 4 = 1/2 * a
-----
if a = 1/2 * angle 5, then angle 5 = 2 * a
-----
we have:
angle 1 = a
angle 2 = a
angle 3 = a
angle 4 = 1/2 * a
angle 5 = 2 * a
angle 6 = 115
</span><span>-----
since the sum of the angles is equal to 720, we have:
3*a + 2*a + 1/2*a + 115 = 720
combine like terms to get:
5.5 * a + 115 = 720
subtract 115 from both sides to get:
5.5 * a = 720 - 115 = 605
divide both sides by 5.5 to get:
a = 720/5.5 = 110
-----
angle 1, 2, and 3 are each 110 degrees.
angle 4 = 55 degrees
angle 5 = 220 degrees
angle 6 = 115 degrees
-----
the question is:
What is the measure of the smallest angle?
the answer is:
55 degrees.</span>
