Let steph score be x
Then kyrie score is 2x-5
Sum of the two scores is 55
Therefore x+2x-5=55
3x-5=55
3x=60
x=20

Therefore steph score is 20
And kyrie score is 2(20)-5
40-5=35

What is the solution to the equation -2(1+5a)=-6(a+3) ?
Lilit [14]


The solution is a=4

-2(1+5a)=-6(a+3)

-2-10a=-6a-18

+18              +18

16-10a=-6a

     +10a      +10a

16=4a

divide by 4

4=a

0.8) 498 what is the answer​
Lina20 [59]

Step 1: We make the assumption that 498 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x​.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=498$100%=498​.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=4$x%=4​.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=498(1)$100%=498(1)​.

$x\%=4(2)$x%=4(2)​.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{498}{4}$

100%

x%​=

498

4​​

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{4}{498}$

x%

100%​=

4

498​​

$\Rightarrow x=0.8\%$⇒x=0.8%​

Therefore, $4$4​ is $0.8\%$0.8%​ of $498$498​.

A triangle has side lengths of 7 centimeters, 5 centimeters, and c centimeters.
storchak [24]
Sum of two sides always greater than the third side

If c is the smallest number, then

5 + c > 7
c > 2

If c is the largest number, then

5+7>c
12>c

Adding c>2 and 12>c, you get 12>c>2 for the answer

Write the equation for the line that passes through (2, -4) and is
Kryger [21]

Answer: y= x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicularity entails the slope of line a is -1 divided by the slope of line b

m1= (-1/m2)

From y=Mx +c

We compare with x-4y=7

y=(1/4)x-7/4

Meaning m2= 1/4

m1= -1/(1/4)= -1*4= -4

((y-y1)/(x-x1))= ((y2-y1)/(x2-x1))=m1

x1= 2, y1= -4

((y-(-4))/(x-2))= -4

((y+4)/(x-2))= -4

Cross multiply

y+4= -4(x-2)

y= x-2

If a polygon has an interior angle of 144, what kind of polygon is it? (find the # of sides first
ikadub [295]
<span>Each Interior Angle = <span>(<span>(Number of Sides -2) • 180 degrees<span>)<span> ÷ (Number of Sides)

Solving for number of sides
</span></span></span></span></span>
<span>Each Interior Angle / 180 = <span>(N -2) <span>/ (N)

144 / 180 = (n-2) / n

144 * n = 180n -360
360 = 36 n

n = 10 the number of sides
