x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we would simplify the left hand side of the equation by expanding the brackets

so 2(4-3x) = 8-6x and

5(2x-3) = 10x-15

This gives the left hand side as 8-6x+10x-15. So the overall equation becomes

8-6x+10x-15 = 20-5x.

Grouping the unknown values on one side and integers on one side of the equation gives us

8-15-20=6x-10x-5x (note the sign changes when numbers and unknown values are moved to the other side of the = sign

Solving further, -27 = -9x i.e x = -27/-9 = 3

Hence x = 3

Hich of the following are the coordinates of the vertex of y = x2 − 10x + 2?
ANEK [815]
The vertex is in essence the turning point of the parabola y = x²<span> − 10x + 2

the x coordinate of the turning point = </span>- \frac{b}{2a}
                                                         = - \frac{-(10)}{2(1)}
                                                         =  5

when x = 5, y = (5)² - 10(5) + 2
                      = -23

Thus coordinate or vertex is ( 5, -23)

How does the unit circle allow the trigonometric functions to be defined for all real numbers instead of just for acute angles?
Molodets [167]

Every point in the unit circle is identified either by its coordinates (x,y) or by the angle it forms with the x-axis, \alpha.

The trigonometric functions associate with every angle \alpha and the correspondant (x,y) coordinates the two values

\cos(\alpha)=x,\quad\sin(\alpha)=y

This procedure can be done for every angle \alpha, so you don't have to work with acute angles only.

How do you solve <br> -178=-5x+4(-4x-13)
Effectus [21]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

-4x - 13  =   -1 • (4x + 13)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 2: </u></em>

 -178 -  (-5x +  -4 • [4x + 13] )  = 0

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

  21x - 126  =   21 • (x - 6)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 4: </u></em>

 21 • (x - 6)  = 0

  • <em><u>Solve:</u></em>

x-6 = 0  

  • <em><u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation:</u></em>

x = 6
