Answer:
A) x=9/2 B) x=-1/5, 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-9=27/1-5x
3x-9=27-5x
3x-(-5x)-9=27
3x+5x-9=27
8x-9=27
8x=27+9
8x=36
x=36/8
simplify
x=9/2
Answer: x=9/2
-----------------------------
10x-1/x=3
(10x^2-1)/x=3
10x^2-1=3*x
10x^2-1=3x
10x^2-3x-1=0
factor out the trinomial,
find two numbers that when they multiply,
you get the third term, which is -1 in this case.
When you add those 2 numbers, you get the second term,
which is -3 in this case.
(5x+1)(2x-1)=0
apply the zero property from here,
set 5x+1=0 and 2x-1=0 and solve for x.
5x=0-1=-1, x=-1/5,
2x=0+1=1, 2x=1, x=1/2.
So x=-1/5, 1/2.
A). The area of the shaded triangle is 64cm. This is because the formula for the area of a triangle is (b x h) / 2, and the base of this triangle is 16, and the height is 8. So, 16 x 8 is 128, and 128 / 2 = 64. The area is 64cm.
B). The area of each white triangle is 32cm because we can see that the two white triangles is equal to half of the shaded triangle, so we can take the base of the shaded triangle and divide it in two. Then we can use the formula for the area of a triangle and solve for the area: (b x h) / 2 = (8 x 8) / 2 = 32. The area of one of the white triangles is 32cm.
C). Since we have solved for the area of each of the triangles, we can add up all of these individual areas to get the area for the rectangle: White triangle + white triangle + shaded triangle = 32 + 32 + 64, which is equal to 128cm, the area of the rectangle.
I don't think you can because the variables are different. You can only add the same variables.

Answers:
-3.5 < 5
|-3.5| < |5|
============================================
Explanation:
Any negative number is <u>always</u> smaller than any positive number. So that's why -3.5 is smaller than 5 and where -3.5 < 5 comes from. It might help to set up a vertical number line. Stuff on top is larger than stuff down below.
---------
The vertical bars represent absolute value. The result of |-3.5| is 3.5 because this is the distance from -3.5 to 0 on the number line. Likewise, |5| = 5.
So that's how we get to |-3.5| < |5| which is effectively saying -3.5 is closer to zero than 5 is to zero.
