How do you do: -6(6a-5)=-2(8-5a)

Mathematics
1 answer:
devlian [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. distribute the -6 on the left into the parentheses. you should get -36a + 30.

2. on the side right of the =, distribute the -2 to get -16 + 10a.

now it should look like -36a + 30 = -16 + 10a.

3. move the terms over to isolate the a value. subtract 30 to the right side to get -46 (-36a=-46+10a)

4. move the 10a on the right to the left by subtracting it to the other side.

(-46a=-46)

5.divide by -46 to get a=1

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

(a)\ x < 150

(b)\ x = 149; x = 148

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount = 150 --- not more than

x \to spending

Solving (a): Represent as an inequality

Not more than means <

So, the inequality is:

Spending < Amount

x < 150

Solving (b): The first two possible solutions

These are the numbers closest to 150 i.e. 149 and 148

Hence, x = 149; x = 148

Write an equation of the line that passes through (−3,7) and is perpendicular to the line y=−2x−5.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

an equation is : Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)    ;  m : the slope   when : x_1 = -3   and  y_1  = 7

- 2 ×m = - 1  because this line is perpendicular to the line y= -2x-5 when the slope is  -2

so : m= 1/2

an equation is : y - 7 =(1/2)(x+3)
