-q-7q=8 whats q equal?

1 answer:

7 0

-q-7q=8
First you need to know that there is an invisible 1 in front of -q. Change it to -q if you need to. You get:
-1q-7q=8
add like terms: -1-7 gives you -8.
-8q=8. Divide by -8 on both sides to find q.
-8/8=-1
8/8=1
Therefore, q=1.

Answer:

the triangle above is an isoceles triangle

therefore the base angles are equal

So we have:

2x = 180-38

2x = 142

X = 71°

Tickets to a concert cost $2 for children, $3 for teenagers and $5 for adults. When 570 people attended the concert, the total t

-Dominant- [34]

Let

x--------> the number of children

y------> the number of teenagers

z------> the number of adults

we know that

$2x+3y+5z=1,950$ ------> equation A

$x+y+z=570$ -----> equation B

$y=\frac{3}{4}x$

$x=\frac{4}{3}y$ -------> equation C

Substitute equation C in equation A and equation B

$2[\frac{4}{3}y]+3y+5z=1,950$

$\frac{17}{3}y+5z=1,950$ --------> equation D

$[\frac{4}{3}y]+y+z=570$

$\frac{7}{3}y+z=570$ --------> equation E

Multiply equation E by $-5$

$-\frac{35}{3}y-5z=-2,850$ --------> equation F

Adds equation D and equation F

$\frac{17}{3}y+5z=1,950\\\\-\frac{35}{3}y-5z=-2,850\\\\---------\\\\-\frac{18}{3}y=-900\\\\y=3*900/18\\\\y=150\ teenagers$

therefore

the answer is the option

$150\ teenagers$

Carly takes three steps to walk the same distance as jim walks in four steps. each of carly’s steps covers 0. 5 metres. how many

myrzilka [38]

The distance travelled by Jim in 24 step is 9 miles by unitary method.

According to the given question.

The number of steps travelled by Jim = 24

Also, it is given that "Carly takes three steps to walk the same distance as Jim walks in four steps".

Therefore, by unitary mehod we can say that

The number of steps walked by Carly = 3 × (24/4) = 3 × 6 = 18

So, the distance travelled by Carly in 18 steps

= 18 × 0.5miles

= 9 miles

Since, the Carly's 18 steps is equals to Jim's 24 steps.

Therefore, the distance travelled by Jim in 24 step is 9 miles.

The sum of twice a number and 15 is -42

satela [25.4K]

Assume that the number is n.
sum of twice the number and 15 means that you will first multiply the number by 2 then add 15.
the equation us:
2n + 15 = -42
2n = -42-15
2n = -57
n = -28.5
