Simplify x + 1/2 (x-5) =20

Mathematics

Aneli [31]3 years ago

Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation: Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x+ 1 /2

(x−5)=20

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x+ 1 /2

(x−5)=20

x+( 1 /2 )(x)+( 1 /2 )(−5)=20(Distribute)

x+ 1 /2

x+  −5 /2 =20

(x+ 1 /2 x)+( −5 /2 )=20(Combine Like Terms)

3 /2 x +  −5 /2 =20

3 /2 x +  −5 /2 =20

Step 2: Add 5/2 to both sides.

3 /2 x +  −5 /2  +  5 /2 =20+ 5 /2

3 /2 x=  45 /2

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 2/3.

( 2 /3 )*( 3 /2 x)=( 2 /3 )*( 45 /2 )

x=15

It’s B
If y-x=6
Y +X =_10
then y= 6 + x, instead of y insert this no
6+ x+ x =-10
6 + 2x =-10 then collect like terms
2x =-10-6
2x=-16 then multiple both side by 1/2
X=-8
Y=6+x instead of x insert -8
Y=6-8
=-2

Number 7 and 8 plz answer quickly
Flauer [41]

(7) m∠A = 52°

(8) m∠B = 117°

Solution:

(7) Let us first define the supplementary and complementary angles.

Supplementary angles: Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is add up to 180°

Complementary angles: Two angles are said to be complementary angles if their sum is add up to 90°

Given supplement of 142° = 180° – 142°

                                           = 38°

Complement of ∠A = Supplement of 142°

⇒ Complement of ∠A = 38°

Measure of ∠A = 90° – 38°

                          = 52°

Hence m∠A = 52°.

(8) Given complement of 27° = 90° – 27°

                                                 = 63°

Supplement of ∠B = Complement of 27°

⇒ Supplement of ∠B = 63°

Measure of ∠B = 180° – 63°

                          = 117°

Hence m∠B = 117°.

ASAP <br> HELP JUST THE ANSWER
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

40:15 simplified is, (i divided by 5) 8:3

Ratio is when you have a number to a number just put them together but put a colon between them to make it a ratio, thats all ;D. It's basically a fraction.

But you can also simplify ratios just like fractions because they are fractions!
