Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS = Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

First, subtract 5 from both sides

5x + 5 = 0

5x + 5 (-5) = 0 (-5)

5x = 0 - 5

5x = -5

Next, divide 5 from both sides

(5x)/5 = (-5)/5

x = -5/5

x = -1

-1 is your answer for x.

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 5 = 0

Subtract 5 from each side

5x+5-5 = 0-5

5x = -5

Divide by 5 on each side

5x/5 = -5/5

x = -1

The dimension of a mural pointed on the wall of a school is 10 ft by 22 ft. the art club wants to paint a new mural that is x fe
Westkost [7]

Answer:

  • 18 ft and 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The new dimensions will be:</u>

  • 10 + x and 22 + x

The area is 540

<u>Using area equation we get:</u>

  • (10 + x)(22 + x) = 540
  • x² + 32x + 220 = 540
  • x² + 32x = 320
  • x² + 2x*16 + 256 = 320 + 256
  • (x + 16)² = 576
  • x + 16 = √576  (Ignoring the negative root as the length is never negative)
  • x + 16 = 24
  • x = 8

<u>The new dimensions are:</u>

  • 10 + 8 = 18 ft and
  • 22 + 8 = 30 ft

Im not sure if anyone knows how to do this but if u do could u pleaseee help me with this!!!

Answer:

y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1) Find the slope of the line.</u>

The slope of the original line is the same as the slope of the parallel line.

Slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

In this case you can choose any 2 set of points on the table.

m = \frac{4 - 2}{-3 - (-2)} = \frac{4 - 2}{-3 + 2} = \frac{2}{-1} = -2

So the slope of the line is -2

<u>2) Use the point-slope formula to find the equation of the line.</u>

Point-slope formula:

y - y_{1}  = m(x - x_{1})

Now plug in the point (0, -5) and the slope -2 into the equation.

y - (-5) = -2(x - 0)

y + 5 = -2(x - 0)

To solve the equation first apply the distributive property.

y + 5 = -2x + 0

y + 5 = -2x

Next, subtract 5 from sides.

y = -2x - 5

You know have your equation in point-slope form!
