2w + 7 = 2(w + 5) - 8

Mathematics
2 answers:
BARSIC [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2w + 7 = 2(w + 5) - 8

Distribute

2w+7 = 2w+10-8

Combine like terms

2w+7 = 2w+2

Subtract 2w from each side

7 = 2

This is never true so there is no solution

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First we use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

2w+7=2w+10-8

We combine like terms.

2w+7=2w+2

We subtract 2w from both sides.

7=2

Since we lost our variables and this equation is not true, there are no solutions to this equation as there is no possible value for w that can make this true.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Which functions have an axis of symmetry of x = -2? Check all that apply. A. f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 3 B. f(x) = x^2 - 4x - 5 C. f(x)
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

A. f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 3

D. f(x) = -2x^2 - 8x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is found by h = -b/2a  where ax^2 +bx +c

A. f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 3

  h = -4/2*1 = -2    x=-2

B. f(x) = x^2 - 4x - 5

h = - -4/2*1 = 4/2 =2  x=2  not -2

C. f(x) = x^2 + 6x + 2

h =  -6/2*1 = -3/2 =  x=-3/2  not -2

D. f(x) = -2x^2 - 8x + 1

h = - -8/2*-2 = 8/-4 =-2  x=-2  

E. f(x) = -2x^2 + 8x - 2

h = - 8/2*-2 = -8/-4 =2  x=2  not -2

If the straight line passing through A(-7, -5) and B(-3, x) is parallel to another straight line of slope 2, find the value of x
Ostrovityanka [42]
X=3; you can set up a proportion using the slope equation. So (y[sub2]-y[sub1])/(x[sub2]-x[sub1])=2/1 then plug in the values and simplify. Then cross multiply and solve for x. Rest of work shown in the picture

Perimeter of a mirror is 260. The length is x cm. Find the height of the mirror in terms of x
Elenna [48]

\bf \textit{perimeter of a rectangle}\\\\ P=2(L+h)~~ \begin{cases} L=length\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ P=260\\ L=x \end{cases}\implies 260=2(x+h) \\\\\\ \cfrac{260}{2}=x+h\implies 130=x+h\implies 130-x=h
