Solve the equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vera_Pavlovna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

All real numbers; the simplification is described below.

Step-by-step explanation:

5(- 3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13

Let's keep in mind PEMDAS (the order of operations) to simplify and solve this. First, we'll distribute inside each set of parenthesis!

5(-3x) + 5(-2) -1(x) -1(-3) = -4(4x) -4(5) + 13

See how we've taken the outer term on the outside of the parenthesis and multiplied it to each term inside the parenthesis. Simplify further.

-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13

Now we can combine like terms! I will bold the terms I am combining.

-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the x terms on the left)

-16x - 10 + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the constants on both sides)

-16x - 7 = -16x - 7

Aha! It looks like we have an equation that's literally equal to itself. If we were to simplify this, or put in any number, we'd get that number equals itself. For example:

-16(1) - 7 = -16(1) - 7

-16 - 7 = -16 - 7

-21 = -21

Any number you put in here will make the equation true, so these lines must be the same line. That means the solution is all real numbers.

In a bag of apples, the ratio of red apples to green apples is 3:4. If the bag contains 60 red apples, how many green apples are
alekssr [168]
Hi there! The answer is 80 green apples.

In a bag of apples, the ratio of red apples to green apples is 3:4, so we must first realise that there is a total of 7 parts.

3 of these parts constist if red apples. In other terms 3 / 7 equals 60. Now divide by 3 to find 1 / 7. Hence, 1 / 7 equals 60 / 3 = 20 apples.

4 of the total 7 parts consist of green apples, so we must multiply the preceding outcome by 4 to find our answer. 4 / 7 equals 20 × 4 = 80 apples.

Therefore, there are 80 green apples in the bag.

URGENT!! DESPERATE!! GEOMETRY REFLECTIONS!!! PLEASE INCLUDE EXPLANATION BOGUS ANSWERS WILL BE REPORTED
serious [3.7K]

When we reflect a point across y=x, the x and y coordinates switch out , that is (x,y) becomes (y,x) . SO for point (1,2), on reflection across y=x, (1,2) becomes (2,1) . And when we do reflection across y=-x, (x,y) becomes (-y,-x). Therefore point (2,1) on reflection across y=-x becomes(-1,-2) .

So the final answer is (-1,-2) .
