Answer:

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to get x by itself

5x+38=8x-19

First, we need to move all the numbers to the same side, and all the variables to the other side

Let’s add 19 to both sides

5x+38+19=8x-19+19

5x+57=8x

Now, subtract 5x from both sides

5x-5x+57=8x-5x

57=3x

Now all the numbers are on one side, and the variables are on the other. x is still now by itself, it is being multiplied by 3. To undo this, divide both sides by 3.

57/3=3x/3

19=x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 38 = 8x - 19

by transposing method,

5x - 8x = -19-38

-3x = -57

3x = 57

x = 57/3

x = 19

Instead of handing out candy like a well-adjusted person on Halloween, grumpy, anti-social Professor Sosa decides to stand on to

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: The bag of candy corn will take 5 seconds to land on the floor and it will hit it with velocity of 49m/s.

Step-by-step explanation: A free falling object has only Gravitational Force acting on it, so acceleration will be due to gravity, which has magnitude

g = 9.8m/s².

As Professor Sosa drops the bag, its initial velocity and time are 0.

The building has a height of 400ft, so adjusting units: y = 121.92 m and $y_{0}$ = 0.
