X=5 

3x+2-5x=5x-8-5x

-2x+2=-8

-subtract 2 from both side
-then you divide both sides by -2

(got lazy with it but the answer is x=5)

3x + 2 = 5x - 8
Flip
5x - 8 = 3x + 2
Subtract both sides by 3x
2x - 8 = 2
Add both sides by 8
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2
x = 5

That's your answer.

Have an awesome day! :)

Georgia works part-time at a daycare while she is going to college. She earned $160 last week. Georgia worked 12 more hours than
Lelu [443]

Answer:

B. $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total payment, T = $160

Hourly rates = $t/hour

= total payment/total time worked

The question said, "worked 12 more hours than the amount she is paid per hour".

Total time worked = (12 + t) hour

Therefore, Hourly rates of payment, t = 160/(12 + t)

t^2 + 12t - 160 = 0

Solving the above quadratic equation,

t = -20 and 8

t = $8

What is tje equation of the function?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

It is relatively easy to determine whether an equation is a function by solving for y. When you are given an equation and a specific value for x, there should only be one corresponding y-value for that x-value. For example, y = x + 1 is a function because y will always be one greater than x.

One number is six times as large as another. The sum of their reciprocal is 7. What are the numbers
RideAnS [48]
X=6y

sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y

x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1

the numbers are 1 and 1/6
