Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 5(x - 2) - (x + 2) = 50 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

- 5x + 10 - x - 2 = 50, that is

- 6x + 8 = 50 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 6x = 42 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 7

Answer:

(-5x - 10) - 2x = 50

-7x - 10 = 50

     +10    +10

    -7x = 60

      -7x/7 = 60/7

x=8.57142857143 or 60/7

Step-by-step explanation:

You first distribute the -5 to X and 2 then add x and 2. Then add 10 on both sides. Next divided each side by POSITIVE 7 and decimal or fraction is ur final answer

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We know it has 2 distinct zeros. This means the discriminant of the quadratic is positive and must have 2 real zeros that can be rational or irrational. We also know the quadratic has rational coefficients which means both are either rational or irrational. They can not be one of either. Since it tells us one is rational, the other must be too.

4x+3y=20<br> 2x+y=7<br> How do I solve this? I forgot how to do it :/ also no answer choice
Crank

So for this, I will be using the substitution method. Firstly, subtract both sides in the second equation by 2x: 4x+3y=20\\ y=7-2x

Next, substitute y in the first equation with 7-2x, then solve for x from there:

4x+3(7-2x)=20\\ 4x+21-6x=20\\ -2x+21=20\\ -2x=-1\\ x=\frac{1}{2}

Now that we got x, substitute it into either equation to solve for y:

4*\frac{1}{2}+3y=20\\ 2+3y=20\\ 3y=18\\ y=6\\ \\ 2*\frac{1}{2}+y=7\\ 1+y=7\\ y=6

In short, x = 1/2 and y = 6.

The area of a room is 600 square feet. The length is (x+2) feet and the width is (x+3) feet. Find the dimensions of the room
m_a_m_a [10]
Create an equation using the formula for area of a rectangle; area = width * length
(X + 2)(x + 3) = 600
Multiply the dimensions.
X^2 + 3x + 2x +6 = 600, or simplified x^2 +5x + 6 = 600.
Subtract 600 to get the following:
X^2 + 5x - 594 = 0
Factor by x:
(X - 22)(x + 27) = 0
Solve for x
X - 22 = 0
X = 22.
Use the POSITIVE VALUE of x as you can’t have a negative area for a room.
Then substitute 22 for x to get the dimensions
(22+ 2) or 24 for length and (22+3) or 25 for width.
