- Simplify both sides of the equation
=>x+5+4−5=x+54
=>x+5+4+−5=x+54
=>(x)+(5+4+−5)=x+54(Combine Like Terms)
=>x+4=x+54
=>x+4=x+54
- Subtract x from both sides
=>x+4−x=x+54−x
=>4=54
- Subtract 4 from both sides
=>4−4=54−4
=>0=50
Explanation:
Divide the negative 16 by 2= -8
Then square -8
So the missing constant is 64
The perfect square would be (x-8)^2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The cable is inclined and this acts as the hypotenuse. Since the other two sides are given.

where x and y represent the distance between two cliffs apart and difference in heights. Substituting 740 for x and 280 for y then

Answer: 40 pounds of cashews should be mixed with the peanuts to ensure no change in the revenue
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of cashews that should be mixed with the peanuts to ensure no change in the revenue.
The nut store normally sells cashews for $4.00 per pound and peanuts for $1.50 per pound.
In order to sell 60 pounds of peanuts, the manager decided to mix the 60 pounds of peanuts with some cashews and sell the mixture for $2.50 per pound. It means that
4x + (1.5 × 60) = 2.5(60 + x)
4x + 90 = 150 + 2.5x
4x - 2.5x = 150 - 90
1.5x = 60
x = 60/1.5
x = 40
2/3-> 4/6
1/2-> 3/6
Subtract
1/6
2/5-> 16/40
1/8-> 5/40
Subtract
11/40
