The answer is:  [D]:  " 2.6 " .
_____________________________________________________
Given:  a =  - 2.6 ;  What is the value of "-a "?
_____________________________________________________
So, what is the value of " - (-2.6)" ?
_____________________________________________________
The opposite of a negative is a positive;
           so,  " - (-2.6) = 2.6 " ; which is:  "Answer choice:  [D] " .

Solve each proportion. <br> 8/x+9=2/x-3<br> Please show work.
emmainna [20.7K]


8/x+9-(2/x-3)=0

Step by step solution :


Step 1 :

2
Simplify —
x
Equation at the end of step 1 :

8 2
(— + 9) - (— - 3) = 0
x x
Step 2 :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x as the denominator :

3 3 • x
3 = — = —————
1 x
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

2 - (3 • x) 2 - 3x
——————————— = ——————
x x
Equation at the end of step 2 :

8 (2 - 3x)
(— + 9) - ———————— = 0
x x
Step 3 :

8
Simplify —
x
Equation at the end of step 3 :

8 (2 - 3x)
(— + 9) - ———————— = 0
x x
Step 4 :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

4.1 Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x as the denominator :

9 9 • x
9 = — = —————
1 x
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions

8 + 9 • x 9x + 8
————————— = ——————
x x
Equation at the end of step 4 :

(9x + 8) (2 - 3x)
———————— - ———————— = 0
x x
Step 5 :

Adding fractions which have a common denominator :

5.1 Adding fractions which have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

(9x+8) - ((2-3x)) 12x + 6
————————————————— = ———————
x x
Step 6 :

Pulling out like terms :

6.1 Pull out like factors :

12x + 6 = 6 • (2x + 1)

Equation at the end of step 6 :

6 • (2x + 1)
———————————— = 0
x
Step 7 :

When a fraction equals zero :

7.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

6•(2x+1)
———————— • x = 0 • x
x
Now, on the left hand side, the x cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :
6 • (2x+1) = 0

Equations which are never true :

7.2 Solve : 6 = 0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (5'1, 5'2, 5'3, 5'4, 5'5, 5'6, 5'7, 5'8, 5'9, 5'9, 5'10, 5'11, 5'12)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:5

5 feet 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

first add all of the given together and then divide what you get by the number of terms given

(5'2+5'3+5'4+ 5'5+5'6+ 5'7+ 5'8+5'9+5'9,+5'10+5'11+5'12)/12 = 5'7 11/64 inches

then divide 11 by 64 on a calculator and then round the decimal you get to the nearest tenth which gives you the answer 5 feet 7 inches.

Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. Point C is on the line x = -1.
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The possible y-coordinate of point C is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate of a point is given by (x,y) where x is the horizontal distance from the origin on the x axis and y is the vertical distance from the origin.

Given Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long and Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. The area of triangle ABC is 6 square units.

The area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

6 = 1/2 × 3 × height

height = (2 × 6) / 3 = 4 units

Since point C is perpendicular to line y = 2, they coordinates is either 2 + 4 = 6 or 2 - 4 = -2

The coordinate of point C is either (-1, 6) or (-1, -2)
