20) -5(1 - 5x) +5(-8x - 2) = -4x – 8x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(1 - 5x) +5(-8x - 2) = -4x – 8x

First lets simplify each side of the equation.

-5+25x-40x-10 = -4x-8x

Combine like terms

-15x-15=-12x

Add 15x to both sides (addition property of equality)

-15=3x

Divide each side by 3 (division property of equality)

x=-5

The answer is x = -5

Two grapefruits and three oranges cost $1.95. Three grapefruits and two oranges cost $2.05.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

  • one orange costs $0.35  and  one grapefruit costs $0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>let grapefruits be g , let oranges be o</em>

so first equation:

→2g + 3o  = $1.95

→g = ($1.95 - 3o)/2

so second equation:

→ 3g + 2o = $2.05

→ g = ($2.05 - 2o)/3

Solving simultaneously:

→ ($2.05 - 2o)/3 = ($1.95 - 3o)/2

→ 2($2.05 - 2o) = 3($1.95 - 3o)

→ 4.1 - 4o = 5.85 - 9o

→ - 4o + 9o = 5.85 - 4.1

→ 5o = 1.75

→ o = $0.35

Therefore one orange costs $0.35

Then one grapefruit costs g → ($1.95 - 3o)/2

                                               → g = ($1.95 - 3(0.35))/2

                                               → g = 0.45

Therefore one grapefruit costs $0.45

HELP ME <br> solve for the right triangle
VikaD [51]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine and tangent ratios in the right triangle

cos41° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{VW}{VX} = \frac{7}{VX}

Multiply both sides by VX

VX × cos41° = 7 ( divide both sides by cos41° )

VX = \frac{7}{cos41} ≈ 9.3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

tan41° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{WX}{VW} = \frac{WX}{7}

Multiply both sides by 7

7 × tan41° = WX, thus

WX ≈ 6.1

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the given angles from 180° for ∠ X

∠ X = 180° - (90 + 41)° = 180° - 131° = 49°

99. What is the greatest prime factor of 5,355?<br> A. 17<br> B. 51<br> C. 119<br> D. 131<br> E. 153
NemiM [27]
Hello,

5355 is divisble by 3 since 5+3+5+5=18 is divisible by 3
5355=3*1785
1785 is divisble by 3 since 1+7+8+5=21 is divisible by 3
1785=3*595
595 is not divisible by 3 but by 5
595=5*119
119 is divisible by 7 since 1*2+1*3+9*1=14 is divisible by 7.
119=7*17

17 is prime
Answer A
