You add -125 by its opposite which is 125 so 2x(-125+125)=400+125
2x=525
You then divide both sides by 2 and you get
X=262.5

2x-125=400

Add 125 to both sides

2x-125+125=400+125

2x=525

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2=525/2

x= 262.5


Let me check if my work is good

2(262.5)-125=400

525-125=400

400=400


So yes , my answer is good and I hope its help !

A. Translate each of the following into algebraic expressions: (1 point each) 1.x plus y squared ---> x + y^2
2.8 times a number, x, decreased by y  ---> 8x - y
3.the sum of x and y, squared ---> (x + y)^2
4.3 times the difference of x and y ---> 3( x - y)
5.6 less than x cubed --- > x^3 - 6


B. Translate the following phrases into algebraic expressions. Explain, in complete sentences, the difference between the two. (3 points)

´twice the sum of x and y ---> 2(x + y)
´the sum of twice x and y ---> 2x + y

The first one adds first x and y, and then doubles the result, while the second one first doubles de value of x and the adds y.


C. Create your own example of a mathematical phrase you might hear in the real world and provide the translation for it. Be sure to identify what part of the phrase i

A mouse can travel 1.5 miles a day. write an equation showing how far it travles
Vika [28.1K]
Let t = the number of days the mouse travels
Let D = the distance that the mouse traveled
The mouse travels at a rate of 1.5 miles per day, so R = 1.5 mi/day

The equation is:
Distance (D) = Rate (R) x Time (t)

SO:
Distance (D) = 1.5 mi./day X Time (t)

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The complete list of factors for 805 are 1, 5, 7, 23, 35, 115, 161, and 805.

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor pair is a combination of two factors which can be multiplied together to equal 805. In proper math terms, the number 805 is called the product and the two numbers that can be multiplied together to equal it are called the factors.

In order to work out the factor pairs of 805 we need to first get all of the factors of 805. Once you have the list of all those factors we can pair them together to list out all of the factor pairs.

The complete list of factors for 805 are 1, 5, 7, 23, 35, 115, 161, and 805.

What is the volume olf the basketball the diameter is 9.5 round to mearest whole nu!mber<br>​
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

143π in³

Step-by-step explanation:

A basketball has the shape of a sphere

Volume of a basketball = 4/3πr³

Diameter = 9.5 in

Radius = diameter/2

= 9.5/2

= 4.75 in

Volume of a basketball = 4/3πr³

= 4/3 * π * 4.75³

= 4/3 * π * 107.17

= (4*π*107.17) / 3

= 428.68π / 3

= 142.89π in³

Approximately

143π in³ to the nearest whole number
