Answer:

Infinite solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 5 to the numbers inside the parenthesis.

5 × 4=20

5 × -x=-5x

-5x+20.

They are the same.

-5x+20=-5x+20

Add 5x on both sides:

-5x+5x+20=-5x+5x+20

20=20

So there are infinite solutions.

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(4-x)=-5x+20

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

-5(4-x)=-5x+20

Reorder the terms in parentheses

+(-20+5x)=-5x+20

Remove unnecessary parentheses

-20+5x=-5x+20

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+5x+5x=+20+20

We simplify left and right side of the equation.

+10x=+40

We divide both sides of the equation by 10 to get x.

x=4

Lie is solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.
wel

we have

3x^{2} + 18x - 8 = 0

Step 1

Move the constants to the right side

3x^{2} + 18x = 8

Step 2

Factor 3 out of the variable terms

3(x^{2} + 6x) = 8

Step 3

Add 27 to both sides of the equation

3(x^{2} + 6x+9) = 8+27

3(x^{2} + 6x+9) = 35

Step 4

Write the polynomial as a binomial squared

3(x+3)^{2} = 35

therefore

the answer is

Factor 3 out of the variable terms.

Poor Milhouse is hopelessly in love with Lisa. Unfortunately for Milhouse, Lisa does not feel the same way. However, Milhouse re
rewona [7]

Answer:

15.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each day there is a 6% chance that Lisa smiles at him then that means that each day there is a 94% chance that Lisa does not smile at him. To find the probability of Milhouse going longer than a month (30 days) without a smile from Lisa we need to multiply this percentage in decimal form for every day of the month. This can be solved easily by putting 94% to the 30th power which would be the same, but first, we need to turn it into a decimal...

94% / 100 = 0.94

0.94^{30} = 0.156

Now we can turn this decimal into a percentage by multiplying by 100

0.156 * 100 = 15.6%

Finally, we can see that the probability that Milhouse goes longer than a month without a smile from Lisa is 15.6%

14 + 4x=2-28<br> What would “x” equal?
cupoosta [38]

Step-by-step explanation and the Answer:

14+4x=2-28

Combine Like Terms. Now the equation looks like this: 14+4x=-26

Then Subtract 14 from both sides. Then the equation looks like this after u subtract 14 from both sides: 4x=-40

Now divide 4 from both sides. Now the equation looks like this after u Divide 4 from both sides: x=-10

So therefore the answer is x=-10.

-5x - 4=46<br><br> two step equations
Anastaziya [24]
-5x-4=46
-5x=46+4
-5x=50
÷both sides by -5x.
so your answer is going to be -10. and is so because u are diving with a negative number
