-1/2x+2=x+7 how do you work this problem​

Mathematics

Stolb23 [73]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 3.333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by simplifying both sides both sides, then isolating the variable.

-\frac{1}{2} x+2=x+7

                          -2    -2

-\frac{1}{2} x=x+5

                  *2        *2

x+2x=+10

      -2x    -2x

-3x=10

x=-\frac{10}{3}

x = -3.3333333

If your weight is 132 pounds, how much work is done if you climb a flight of stairs 12 meters high?
Temka [501]

Answer:

7040.76 Joule

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make yourself be able to climb upstairs, you need to work against the force of gravity. The force with which you pull yourself up is equal to the force of gravity exerted on you by the gravitational force.

So here, the net force involved is Mass(in Kg) multiplied by Acceleration due to gravity.

132 pounds = 59.8742 Kg

Net force = 59.87 × 9.8 = 586.73

As we know, the workdone is calculated by Multiplying the Net force with the Net displacement. Here, in this case the net displacement is 12 meters.

So,

Workdone = 586.73 × 12 = 7040.76 Joule

Determine the most specific name for quadrilateral JKLM if the coordinates of the vertices are:J(-4,6), K(-1,2), L(1,6), M(4,2)J
Arturiano [62]

To finish the demonstration that the quadrilateral JKLM is a rhombus we need to prove that side JK is congruent with side LM.

The length of a segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is calculated as follows:

\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Substituting with points L(1,6) and M(4,2) we get:

\begin{gathered} LM=\sqrt[]{(4-1)^2+(2-6)^2} \\ LM=\sqrt[]{3^2+(-4)^2} \\ LM=\sqrt[]{9+16^{}} \\ LM=5 \end{gathered}

Given that opposite sides are parallel, all sides have the same length, and, from the diagram, the quadrilateral is not a square, we conclude that it is a rhombus.

Maya has 120 caramel apples to sell. Each caramel apple is covered with one topping. 1/5 of the caramel apples are covered with
natita [175]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Maya has 120 caramel apples to sell.

Each caramel apple is covered with one topping.

1/5 of the caramel apples are covered with peanuts.

1/3 of the caramel apples are covered with chocolate chips.

3/10 of the caramel apples are covered with coconut.

The rest are covered with sprinkles.

find:

How many caramel apples are covered with sprinkles?

120 = (1/5 * 120) + (1/3 * 120) + (3/10 * 120) + sprinkles

120 = 24 + 40 + 36 + sprinkles

sprinkles = 120 - 24 - 40 - 36 = 20

therefore,

there are 20 caramel apples covered with sprinkles.

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

d=\sqrt{58}\approx7.6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2

Our first point, A, is at (1, 1) and our second point, B, is at (-2, 8).

Let's let A(1, 1) be (x₁, y₁) and B(-2, 8) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute this into the distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(8-1)^2

Subtract:

d=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(7)^2

Square:

d=\sqrt{9+49}

Add:

d=\sqrt{58}

This cannot be simplified.

So, the distance between the two points is √58 or about 7.6 units.

And we're done!

So... where's my cookie :)?
