Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

distibute: 1/2x - 5 = 7

add 5 to both sides: 1/2x = 12

multiply by 2 on both sides: x = 24

To check your work:

1/2[(24) - 10] = 7

simplify inside the parenthesis: 1/2[14] = 7

multiply: 7 = 7

the statement is true so your answer is corect

Lemur [1.5K]
I think the answer is 0/6, 2/6, 3/6. Or 0/6, 1/6, 4/6. But if 0/6 isn't allowed, then it is not possible.

A cyclist rides his bike at a speed of 18 miles per hours.what is this speed in kilometers per hour? How many kilometers will th
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

  • about 29 km/h
  • 57.94 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion factor cancels units of miles and leaves units of km.

  \dfrac{18\,mi}{h}\cdot\dfrac{1.609344\,km}{1\,mi}=\dfrac{28.968192\,km}{h}

The speed rounds to 29 km/h.

Multiplying the distance per hour by the number of hours, we find the distance to be ...

  (28.968192 km/h)×(2 h) = 57.936384 km ≈ 57.94 km

Myra is evaluating the expression –31.7 + 4.5x, when x = 2.1.     –31.7 + 4.5(2.1) –27.2(2.1) –57.12 What was Myra’s error?
netineya [11]

Answer:

Myra's Error: Addition instead of multiplication

Correct answer: -22.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Myra is evaluating the expression.

Expression: -31.7 + 4.5x  for x=2.1

Step 1: Put x=2.1 into expression            

      Myra's Steps                               Correct Step

    -31.7 + 4.5(2.1)                            -31.7 + 4.5(2.1)

Thus, first step correct.

Step 2: Simplify 4.5(2.1) by multiply

      Myra's Steps                               Correct Step

          -27.2(2.1)                                -31.7 + 9.45

Thus, second step incorrect.

Therefore, Myra's error in second step. She did addition(-31.7+4.5)  instead of multiplication(4.5×2.1)

Step 3: Combine like terms

-31.7 + 9.45 = -22.25

Hence, The correct answer of the given expression is -22.25

Answer:

x=15

Converse: If line x and y are parallel then angles on the same line are supplementary angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Converse:</u></em>

Let's start with the converse, so if line x and y are parallel then angles on the same line are supplementary angles. I'm not sure if that's the converse your teacher wants but my teacher taught me this.

<em><u>Finding x:</u></em>

Now we know that the angles are supplementary angles, that means if w add them together we get 180°. So our equation will be 10x-22+3x+7=180. Now we just solve it. We start by combining like terms, then adding the 15 to both sides, and lastly we divide the 13 to both sides and get...

10x-22+3x+7=180\\13x-15=180\\13x=195\\x=15

x=15
