Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

5.8+5.9x=6x+5

5.9x-6x=5-5.8

-0.1x= -0.8

x=8

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move the variables to be on one side of the equation. We will do this by canceling out 5.9x with -5.9. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

5.8 + 5.9x = 6x + 5

       -5.9x   -5.9x

                 ↓

        5.8 = .1x + 5

2. Move the 5 to the left of the equation, so it can be with its like term. We will do this by canceling out 5 with -5. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

5.8 = .1x + 5

-5              -5

        ↓

   .8 = .1x

3. Get the x alone. Since x is being multiplied by .1 we will do this by dividing by .1. This is because division is the inverse of multiplication. What you do to one side of the equation you must also do to the other.

     <u>.8</u> = <u>.1x</u>

     .1     .1

         ↓

     8 = x

4. Rewrite the equation to have the variable come first.

x = 8

You find this by finding the number of yards in 15 feet (15÷3) and that number of yards in 24 feet (24÷3) and multiplying them together. 5X8=40sq yards.

Write the expression as a monomial in its standard form:
Drupady [299]

Answer:

1. 8 p^19

2.  -x^8

3. -2y^14

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   8p^15·(–p)^4

We can separate things inside the powers  (ab)^x = a^x * b^x

8 p^15 * (-1)^4 p^4

We can add the exponents when the bases are the same  x^a * x^b = x^(a+b)

8 p^ (15+4)

8 p^19

2.(-2x^2)^2*(-.25x^4)

We can separate things inside the powers  (ab)^x = a^x * b^x

(-2)^2  (x^2)^2  (-1/4) x^4

4 x^4  -1/4 x^4

We can add the exponents when the bases are the same  x^a * x^b = x^(a+b)

4 * -1/4  x^ (4+4)

-x^8

3.((-.5)y^4)^3*(16y^2)

   We can separate things inside the powers  (ab)^x = a^x * b^x

(-1/2) ^3 (y^4) ^3 (16) y^2

When a power is raised to a power, we multiply  x^a^b = x^(ab)

-1/8 * y^(4*3) * 16 y^2

-1/8 *16 y^12 * y^2

We can add the exponents when the bases are the same  x^a * x^b = x^(a+b)

-2 y^(12+2)

-2y^14

1) Use the factor theorem to determine if 3x-4 is a factor of f(x)=3x^2+2x-8
valina [46]

Step-by-step explanation:

put f(4/3)= 3(4/3)^(2) +2(4/3)-8 =0

so 3x-4 is a factor

similarly, k=35
