What is 3x+70=8x-20 show work

Mathematics

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

x= 18

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+70=8x-20

Isolate x on left side

3x+70=8x-20

-8x       -8x

-5x +70 = -20

Isolate whole numbers on right side

-5x +70 = -20

      -70      -70

-5x = -90

Isolate x by dividing both sides by -5

-5x = -90

/-5

x= 18

PLEASE HELP!! The area of a square is 16 square units. Since 4^2 = 16 and (-4)^2 = 16, both 4 and -4 are square roots for 16. Ex
Rus_ich [418]

we can't say that "both square roots for 16, the area of the square, are the length of each side of the square"

Because one of these solutions does not have a meaning in the given contest.

<h3></h3><h3>Why is the statement incorrect?</h3>

So we have a square with an area of 16 square units, then the side length of that square will be given by:

S^2 = 16 square units

Now, there are two solutions for the above equation, these are:

S = 4 units

S = -4 units.

But being a solution of the equation does not mean that the solutions have sense in the context of the problem.

When we talk about dimensions of figures, negative numbers are not really well defined. We can't say that a square has a side length of "negative 4 units"

That does not make sense, remember that math is just a language, and it should be used to communicate things to others.

So the logical solutions (4 and -4) is not the only thing we need to look at when we state the solutions of a problem, but also the problem itself.

That is why we can't say that "both square roots for 16, the area of the square, are the length of each side of the square"

Because one of these solutions does not have a meaning in the given contest.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>x = 25</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

a number

x

a number divided by 5

x/5

Seven less than a number divided by 5

x/5 - 7

Seven less than a number divided by 5 is -2

x/5 - 7 = -2

x/5 = -2 + 7

x/5 = 5

x = 5 * 5

<h2>x = 25</h2>

The graph below illustrates the linear function of how the total amount that a landscaper charges for a job changes depending on
liberstina [14]

First, given graph is very inaccurate. I suppose that you made net with pen.

a) The slope is the angle ( tan∡) between your graph and x axis.

The slope represent the level of the earnings growth.

b) According to the given graph y-intercept= 30$

Y-intercept represent starting amount of money.

c) If we accept that y=70 is connected with x=2 and y=30 with x=0

The  slope is S= (70-30)/2= 40/2=20

Linear equation for this function is

y= 20x+30

d) When we replace y=300$ in the equation we get

20x+30=300 => 20x=300-30 => 20x=270 => x=270/20=13.5h

x=13.5h

Good luck!!!
