Answer:

-2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call our other expression y, we can set up an equation tying together 3x + 5, y, and 5x - 7:

$(5x-7)+y=3x+5$

Solving for y by subtracting 5x - 7 from both sides will get us the expression we're looking for:

$y=3x+5-(5x-7)\\y=3x+5-5x+7\\y=-2x+12$

So the other expression in the sum is -2x + 12.

A parking space shaped like a parallelogram has a base of 17 feet and a height of 9 feet if a mini car 6 feet long and five feet

lesantik [10]

Answer:

123 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to know how exactly to find the area of a parallelogram.

Area of parallelogram= Base*Height

PARALLELOGRAM-

BASE= 17 ft

HEIGHT= 9ft

AREA= 17*9= 153 cm²

The area of parallelogram, will be considered as WHOLE AREA.

Now,

AREA OF MINI CAR-

length= 6 ft

Width= 5 ft

Area= 6*5= 30 ft ²

Square feet uncovere-

153 ft²- 30 ft²= 123 ft²

She has found that 5 out of 7 seeds produce corn. She wants to have 10,000 corn bearing plants. How many seeds should see plant

Anton [14]

It would take 70,000 seeds if five out of seven are good. So over a quantity of 50,000 plants desired, you would sow 70,000 seeds. As 20,000 would statistically fail.
