Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 (6 x + 9))/3 + x = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

Put each term in (2 (6 x + 9))/3 + x over the common denominator 3: (2 (6 x + 9))/3 + x = (2 (6 x + 9))/3 + (3 x)/3:

(2 (6 x + 9))/3 + (3 x)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

(2 (6 x + 9))/3 + (3 x)/3 = (2 (6 x + 9) + 3 x)/3:

(2 (6 x + 9) + 3 x)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

2 (6 x + 9) = 12 x + 18:

(12 x + 18 + 3 x)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

Grouping like terms, 12 x + 3 x + 18 = (12 x + 3 x) + 18:

((12 x + 3 x) + 18)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

12 x + 3 x = 15 x:

(15 x + 18)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x

Put each term in (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x over the common denominator 5: (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + 2 x = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + (10 x)/5:

(15 x + 18)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10))/5 + (10 x)/5

(2 (5 x - 10))/5 + (10 x)/5 = (2 (5 x - 10) + 10 x)/5:

(15 x + 18)/3 = (2 (5 x - 10) + 10 x)/5

2 (5 x - 10) = 10 x - 20:

(15 x + 18)/3 = (10 x - 20 + 10 x)/5

10 x + 10 x = 20 x:

(15 x + 18)/3 = (20 x - 20)/5

Multiply both sides by 15:

(15 (15 x + 18))/3 = (15 (20 x - 20))/5

15/3 = (3×5)/3 = 5:

5 (15 x + 18) = (15 (20 x - 20))/5

15/5 = (5×3)/5 = 3:

5 (15 x + 18) = 3 (20 x - 20)

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

75 x + 90 = 3 (20 x - 20)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

75 x + 90 = 60 x - 60

Subtract 60 x from both sides:

(75 x - 60 x) + 90 = (60 x - 60 x) - 60

75 x - 60 x = 15 x:

15 x + 90 = (60 x - 60 x) - 60

60 x - 60 x = 0:

15 x + 90 = -60

Subtract 90 from both sides:

15 x + (90 - 90) = -90 - 60

90 - 90 = 0:

15 x = -90 - 60

-90 - 60 = -150:

15 x = -150

Divide both sides of 15 x = -150 by 15:

(15 x)/15 = (-150)/15

15/15 = 1:

x = (-150)/15

The gcd of -150 and 15 is 15, so (-150)/15 = (15 (-10))/(15×1) = 15/15×-10 = -10:

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

f(1) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(1), substitute x = 1 into f(x), that is

f(1) = 1² + 3(1) - 2 = 1 + 3 - 2 = 2

sasho [114]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

You already solved that the 2 angles of the triangle are 55° and since all of the angles are on a straight line, they add up to 180°

and the equation becomes...

3x-10+55=180

3x+45=180

Subtract 45 from both sides

3x=135

Divide by 3

x= 45

Then to double check you plug 45 as the value of x in.

3(45)-10+55=180

135-10+55=180

125+55=180

180=180

Tell me what the slope and y intercept means to you
natka813 [3]
In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis)

In a random sample of 5 residents of the state of Texas, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.9 pounds with a standa
sammy [17]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2><h2 />

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x} \pm\ t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n= 5, since n<30 , so the test we use here is t-test.

Sample mean : \overline{x}=1.9\text{ pounds}

Standard deviation: \sigma=0.89\text{ pounds}

Significance level : 1-\alpha:1-0.99=0.01

By using the standard normal distribution table , the critical value corresponds to the given significance level will be :-

t_{n-1,\alpha/2}=t_{5-1,0.01/2}=t_{4,0.005}=4.604

Now, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas will be :-

1.9\pm\ (4.604)\dfrac{0.89}{\sqrt{5}}\\\\\approx1.9\pm1.832\\\\=(1.9-1.832,1.9+1.832)=(0.068,\ 3.732)

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas  = (0.068, 3.732)

What is the answer to this question having trouble answering it​
Luda [366]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

KL + KJ = 17

2 + 3x + 5x - 1 = 17 add like terms

8x + 1 = 17 subtract 1 from both sides

8x = 16 divide both sides by 8

x = 2

KL = 5x - 1 replace x with 2

5*2 - 1 = 9
