What is the value of x in the equation 6(x + 1) – 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)? OIT MT

Alexandra [31]3 years ago

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to get all the variables on one side of the equation, and all the numbers on the other

6(x + 1) – 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)

First, distribute the 6 on the left

6*x+6*1 -5x=8 +2(x-1)

6x+6-5x=8+2(x=1)

Combine like terms on the left

(6x-5x)+6=8+2(x-1)

x+6=8+2(x-1)

Distribute the 2 on the right

x+6=8+2*x+2*-1

x+6=8+2x-2

Combine like terms on the right

x+6=2x+(8-2)

x+6=2x+6

Subtract x from both sides

6=x+6

Subtract 6 from both sides

x=0

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

We conclude that we must add 4² or 16 to complete the square.

Hence, option C i.e. 16 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the perfect square formula is

<em>(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab</em>

Given the equation

x^2+8x

Let us add 4² or 16 in the equation

x^2+8x+4^2

x^2+\:2\left(1\right)\left(4\right)x+4^2

as <em>(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab, </em>so

<em />x^2+8x+4^2=\left(x+4\right)^2<em />

<em />

Therefore, we conclude that we must add 4² or 16 to complete the square.

Hence, option C i.e. 16 is the correct answer.

Solve the following equation for the variable indicated<br> 15 = Зn + 6р, for n
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Solving the equation 15 = 3n + 6p for variable n we get \mathbf{n=5-2p}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation 15 = 3n + 6p for variable n

Solving:

15 = 3n + 6p

Subtract both sides by 6p

15-6p = 3n +6p -6p\\15-6p=3n

Switch sides of equality

3n=15-6p

Divide both sides by 3

\frac{3n}{3} =\frac{15-6p}{3}\\n=\frac{3(5-2p)}{3}\\n=5-2p

So, solving the equation 15 = 3n + 6p for variable n we get \mathbf{n=5-2p}

A bus traveled 336 miles in 7 hours. It traveled the same number miles each hour. If the bus continues at the same numder of mil
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The bus will travel 720 miles in 15 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you know that the bus traveled 336 miles in 7 hours and it traveled the same number miles each hour, you can divide the amount of miles it traveled by the number of hours to determine the amount of miles per hour:

336/7=48

Now, you can multiply the number of miles the bus traveled each hour for 15 hours:

48*15=720

According to this, the answer is that the bus will travel 720 miles in 15 hours.

Answer ASAP!
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Since tangent is opposite/adjacent,

Tan 40 in this case would be x/3.8 (i used x because we don't know what the value is)

So, you set it up as an algebra problem

Tan40 = x/3.8

Multiply both sides by 3.8

3.8tan40 = x, Option A

And then, angle E is 50 degrees

So tan 50 = 3.8/x

Multiply both sides by x

tan50x = 3.8

Divide both sides by tan50

x= 3.8/tan50

So, A and D are both correct
