Remember you can do anything to an eqautoin as long as you do oit to both sides
-5x=15
try to get 1x by itself
remember
(ax)/a=x when a=a
so
-5x=15
get x
divide both sides by -5
remember to flip sign
(-5x)/(-5)=15/(-5)
x=-3
answer is first one
x=-3
Answer:
The rate is
cups per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
It took the faucet 1 1/2 hours, i.e 1.5 or 3/2 hours to fill 1/4 cup by leaking
We need to find the rate in terms of cups that can be filled by water in 1 hour.
Using unitary method:
If it takes
h for
cup;
then it will take 1 h for how many cups?



cups
Therefore, the rate is
cups per hour
Answer:
x < -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the inequality
-2(x + 3) < 6 - x
Expand
-2x - 6 < 6 - x
Collect the like terms;
-2x + x < 6 + 6
-x < 12
Multiply through by -1
-1(-x) < -1(12)
x < -12
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
This is easy just find out what 5^2 equals which will be 5x5=25 (when dealing with a squared number you will always times it by itself. so if you had 10^2 it would be 100.) so now that we know 5^2 is 25 we then can add the 20 which gets 25+20=45! Hope this helps!
