Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2

--- x - 9 = -7              add 9 both sides

 5

2

--- x - 9 + 9 = -7 + 9      

 5

2

--- x = 2             multiply both sides by 5

 5

    2

5 * --- x = 2 * 5

     5

2x = 10

x = 10 / 2

x = 5

Answer:

the answer is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x/5 - 9 = -7

2x/5      = -7 + 9

2x/5      = 2

2x         = 2 * 5

2x         = 10

x            = 10/2

x            = 5

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of water is,

Cost = $0.20/liter

Amount of water used over the entire month:

Amount of water used = 72 liters

Compute the total water cost as follows:

Total water cost = Amount of water used × Cost

                           = 72 × 0.20

                           = $14.4/liter

The average number of minutes each person showered is:

Average number of minutes = 480 minutes.

The number of people in Trevor's house:

N = 6

Compute the total amount of time the 6 person showered as follows:

Total amount of time = Average number of minutes × N

                                   = 480 × 6

                                   = 2880 minutes

Compute the pay per minute on shower water as follows:

Pay per minute on water = Total water cost ÷ Total amount of time

                                          = $14.4 ÷ 2880

                                          = $0.005

Thus, the amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.

A secant and a tangent to a circle intersect in a 42-degree angle. The two arcs of the circle intercepted by the secant and the
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The measure of the third arc is 150\°

Step-by-step  explanation:

step 1

we know that

The measurement of the external angle is the semi-difference of the arcs which comprises

in this problem

Let

x----> the greater arc of the circle intercepted by the secant and the tangent

y----> the smaller arc of the circle intercepted by the secant and the tangent

42\°=\frac{1}{2}(x-y)

84\°=(x-y) ----> equation A

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{3}

x=\frac{7}{3}y -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

84\°=(\frac{7}{3}y-y)

84\°=(\frac{4}{3}y)

y=3*84\°/4=63\°

Find the value of x

x=\frac{7}{3}(63\°)=147\°

step 2

Find the measure of the third arc

Let

z------> the measure of the third arc

we know that

x+y+z=360\° -----> complete circle

substitute the values and solve for z

147\°+63\°+z=360\°

z=360\°-(147\°+63\°)=150\°
