What is -39-3x=57+5x

1 answer:

4 0

This is an equation that needs to be balanced to solve for x.
-39 -3x = 57 + 5x
Add 3x to each side to get x on one side.
-39 = 57 + 8x
Subtract 57 from both sides to get 8x by itself.
(Remember when subtracting a negative by a negative, those numbers combine)
-96 = 8x
Divide by 8 to get x.
x = -12
I hope this helps!

Simplify the rational expression. State any restrictions on the variable.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The last choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{k^2-k-2}{k^2-4k-5}=\dfrac{(k+1)(k-2)}{(k+1)(k-5)}=\dfrac{k-2}{k-5}$

The value of k must be restricted from being one that makes the original denominator zero. Hence k ≠ -1 or 5.

A triangle has sides with lengths of 60 centimeters, 63 centimeters, and 87 centimeters. Is it a right triangle

lozanna [386]

We can check this by seeing if Pythagorean's theorem applies. The longest side is the hypotenuse, so let's see if this is true:
$60^2+63^2 = 87^2$
$7569 = 7569$

This is, indeed correct, thus, this <em>is </em><em>a right triangle.</em>

Solve each of the following literal equations for c: (c/b) - x = 2d and ac + bd = x

maks197457 [2]

(c/b) - x = 2d
(c/b) = 2d + x
c = b(2d + x)
c = 2db + bx

ac + bd = x
ac = x - bd
c = (x - bd) / a OR c = (x/a) - (bd/a)
