The answer is u = 2.

Here are the steps.

1. expand ( -2u + 10 = -9u + 24)
2. subtract 10 from both sides ( -2u = -9u + 24 - 10
3. Simplify -9u + 24 - 10 to 9u + 14 ( -2u = -9u + 14)
4. add 9u to both sides ( -2u + 9u = 14)
5. simplify -2u + 9u to 7u ( 7u = 14)
6. divide both sides by 7 ( u = 14/7)
7 simplify 14/7 to 2 ( u = 2)

-2u +10 = -9u + 24
7u +10 = 24
7u = 14
u = 2

What is the product (7x10^-5) (5x10^-8)
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Well 7 x 10^-5 would mean you moved the decimal 5 Times because the power at the end of 10 is how many times the decimal is moved till it’s a number greater or equal to 1. So the scientific notation of that is: 0.00003

The -5 means that it was moved to the right. Positive always means left. Negative is always right.

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 1, 5 and 2, 4
natima [27]

Answer:

y = -1/3x + 14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard equation as;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

the given points are;

(-1,5) and (2,4)

So we plug x and y for each of the points

then we create two linear equations which we can solve simultaneously to get the values of m and b

From the points;

5 = -m + b•••••••(i)

4 = 2m + b

from i;

b = 5 + m

substitute this into equation ii

4 = 2m + 5 + m

4 = 3m + 5

4-5 = 3m

3m = -1

m = -1/3

Recall;

b = 5 + m

b = 5-1/3

b = 14/3

so we have the equation as;

y = -1/3x + 14/3

Multiply through by 3

3y = -x + 14
