Just around the 15 and 3. So it would be

(15-3)x4+9=57

This is because (15-3)= 12
12x4=48
48+9= 57

To make this problem true you would put the parenthesis around the 15-3.
(15-3) x 4 + 9 = 57
(12) x 4 + 9 =57
48 + 9 =57
57 =57

Determine which equation has the same solutions as the given equation. x2 − 10x − 11 = 0

cupoosta [38]

The equation x² − 10x − 11 = 0 that is equivalent to (x – 5)² = 36. Then the correct option is A.

<h3>What is an equivalent expression?</h3>

The equivalent is the expressions that are in different forms but are equal to the same value.

The equation is given below.

x² − 10x − 11 = 0

Then the equation can be written as

x² − 10x + 25 – 25 − 11 = 0

(x – 5)² = 36

Then the correct option is A.

The complete question is attached below.

A triangle has the 3 angles marked as A = 2x - 6, B = x + 10,<br><br> C= 2x +1.<br><br> What is x?

Vinvika [58]

Olá!

(2x - 6) + (x+ 10) + (2x + 1) = 180

2x - 6 + x + 10 + 2x + 1 = 180

2x + x + 2x = 180 + 6 - 10 - 1

5x = 175

x = 35

☰ Question (part 1 of 2) This is a two-part question, make sure you answer both parts: Flo Tilla is pedal boating on Lake Azui.

Naddik [55]

For this, we use the given info plus a bit of multiplying and subtraction

part 1)

we know that she's 25 y/m
so 5 minutes simply means 25 × 5
$25 \times 5 = 125 \: yards$

now we simply subtract this from 1000 (the original distance)
$1000 - 125 = 875 \: yards$

part 2)

the total time taken is even easier to find
all we have to do is divide 1000 by 25
$1000 \div 25 = 40 \: minutes$
