Question below. Please answer it, its math.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

- 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do here is simplify the expression -

\frac{3}{5}( 2x + 5 ) - 2x, Distribute the " \frac{3}{5} " to elements within the parenthesis

= \frac{3}{5} * 2x + \frac{3}{5} * 5 - 2x, Focus on simplifying the expression " \frac{3}{5} * 2x + \frac{3}{5} * 5 "

= 2\cdot \frac{3}{5}x+5\cdot \frac{3}{5} - 2x

= \frac{6x}{5}+3 - 2x, Combine fractions

= -\frac{4x}{5} + 3

= -\frac{4}{5}x + 3

So we have our simplified expression "  -\frac{4}{5}x + 3, " with -\frac{4}{5} being the coefficient of x. Our requirements are that this fraction should be expressed as a decimal, so we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator to figure that out,

- 4 / 5 = - 0.8,

Solution = - 0.8

A dairy sells $3 and $5 ice creams. In one day they sell 50 ice creams earning a total of $180. How many of each type of ice cre
murzikaleks [220]
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream

Equation1 ----            x + y = 50   (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ----          3x + 5y = 180  Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides.  (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter).       Now we have x= ₋ y +50  (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50

3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180   
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1  is  x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50    Now subtract 15 from both sides  x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5  = +  <u>75
</u>               $180

The area of a triangle is 30 square centimeters and its base is 10 cm. What is the height in cm of the triangle
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The height of the triangle is 6 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

----------------------------------------

The formula for solving the area of a triangle is  A=\frac{1}{2}bh where b stands for base and h stands for height.

Let's substitute 30 cm^2 for the area and 10 for the base.

30=\frac{1}{2} (10)h

-------------------->>>>

Now, let's solve to find the height.

30=\frac{1}{2}(10)h

Multiply \frac{1}{2} times 10

30=5h

Divide both sides by 5.

6=h

-----------------------------------------

Hope this is helpful.
