What is the solution to the equation 1/4x+2=-5/8x-5 O X=-8 O x=-7 O X= 7 O X=8

Mathematics

Dovator [93]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x+2=-5/8x-5

Add 5/8 x to each side

1/4x + 5/8 x+2=-5/8x + 5/8x-5

1/4x + 5/8x +2 = -5

Subtract 2 from each side

1/4x + 5/8x +2-2 = -5-2

1/4x + 5/8x  = -7

Get a common denominator of 8

1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7

2/8x + 5/8x = -7

7/8x = -7

Multiply each side by 8/7

8/7 * 7/8x = -7*8/7

x = -8

How do you solve an inequality that has a fraction (with a variable as the nemurator/demoninator
vichka [17]

Answer:

Solving with an equality is just simply the same as solving any algebra equations. If you were given a fraction, then just multiply both sides.

Example:

4 + \frac{x}{2} > 14

Subtract 4 on both sides:

4 - 4 + \frac{x}{2} > 14 - 4

\frac{x}{2} > 10

Now <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>:

\frac{x}{2} × 2 > 10 × 2

x > 20

Find a ·<br> b. |a| = 60, |b| = 30, the angle between a and b is 3π/4.
Delvig [45]
The dot product is used to determine the magnitude of the resultant vector of two component vectors. It is expressed as a·b. It does not literally mean that you multiply their values. Instead, you multiply their matrices. However, since we cannot find matrices, let's just find the resultant vector through theorems involving triangles. By cosine law:

R = √[a² + b² - 2abcos(3π/4)]
R = √[60² + 30² - 2*60*30*cos(3π/4)]
R = 83.94

Thus, a·b = 83.94
