Greetings!Solve for <em>x</em>.
Distribute the Parenthesis. <em>How?</em> Multiply all of the terms inside the parenthesis by the number outside the parenthesis.
Add
6y to both sides.
Divide both sides by
-2.
The Answer Is:
Hope this helps.

To find the length of the light pole you'll have to use the sine ratio.
sin 30 = x/43
43 (sin 30) = x
21.5 = x
Hope this helps :)
[x-1]=5x+10
We have two equations:
1) x-1=5x+10
x-1=5x+10
x-5x=10+1
-4x=11
x=-11/4
2) x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-5x-10
x+5x=-10+1
6x=-9
x=-9/6=-3/2
we have two possible solutions:
solution₁; x=-11/4
solution₂: x=-3/2
we check it out:
1) x=-11/4
[x-1]=5x+10
[-11/4 - 1]=5(-11/4)+10
[(-11-4)/4]=-55/4 + 10
[-15/4]=(-55+40) /4
15/4≠-15/4 This solution don´t work.
2) x=-3/2
[x-1]=5x+10
[-3/2 - 1]=5(-3/2)+10
[(-3-2)/2]=-15/2 + 10
[-5/2]=(-15+20)/2
5/2=5/2; this solution works.
Therefore:
Answer: x=-3/2.
The answer to the question is C
Answer:
<u>Problem:</u> Jamie was driving for 24 miles in the first hour and 36 miles is the second hour. But, she stopped at a gas station 1/4 of the total drive. Find how far the gas station is from her start.
<u>Answer:</u>
24 + 36 = 50
50 * 1/4 = 50/4
50/4 = 12.5
<u>Explanation:</u> The gas station is 12.5 miles from her start to a 50 mile journey. The gas station was 1/4 of the total drive which was 50 miles. 1/4 of 50 is 12.5
