Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out expression

5(x + 13) = 20

Step 2: Distribute

5x + 65 = 20

Step 3: Isolate <em>x</em>

5x = -45

x = -9

And we have our answer!

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

5(x+13) = 20

Expand.

5x+65 = 20

Subtract 26 on both sides.

5x = 20 - 65

5x = -45

Divide 5 into both sides.

x = -45/5

x = -9

The number is -9.

Which set of ordered pairs could be generated by an exponential function? A)(negative 1, negative one-half), (0, 0), (1, one-hal
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>C) (negative 1, one-half), (0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 4)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The set C could be generated by an exponential function. The main reason is that exponential functions hava a restricted range, it can't have negative numbers or the number zero, because power can only be equal or greater than 1.

Additionally, for all exponentials, a null exponent gives 1 as an answer, so point (0, 1) is always present in an exponential function.

Therefore, the right answer is C.

(7)(8)(9)<br><br> Geometry<br><br> Check Ans<br><br> 7) s = 15<br> 8) y = 64 x = 99<br> 9) 96
Katyanochek1 [597]
Problem 7: Correct
Problem 8: Correct
Problem 9: Correct

The steps are below if you are curious

===========================================================================================

Problem 7

S = 180*(n-2)
2340 = 180*(n-2)
2340/180 = n-2
13 = n-2
n-2 = 13
n = 13+2
n = 15

I'm using n in place of lowercase s, but the idea is the same. If anything, it is better to use n for the number of sides since S already stands for the sum of the interior angles. I'm not sure why your teacher decided to swap things like that.

===========================================================================================

Problem 8

First find y
y+116 = 180
y+116-116 = 180-116
y = 64

which is then used to find x. The quadrilateral angles add up to 180*(n-2) = 180*(4-2) = 360 degrees
Add up the 4 angles, set the sum equal to 360, solve for x

x+y+125+72 = 360
x+64+125+72 = 360 ... substitution (plug in y = 64)
x+261 = 360
x+261-261 = 360-261
x = 99

===========================================================================================

Problem 9

With any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees

The first two exterior angles add to 264. The missing exterior angle is x
x+264 = 360
x+264-264 = 360-264
x = 96
