Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to subtract the 2x from both sides, leaving you with x+5= -1 and then you want to subtract the 5 from both sides which gets you to your final answer of x= -6

Answer:

x = -6

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Alg</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

3x + 5 = 2x - 1

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 2x on both sides:          x + 5 = -1
  2. Subtract 5 on both sides:            x = -6

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    3(-6) + 5 = 2(-6) - 1
  2. Multiply:                        -18 + 5 = -12 - 1
  3. Add/Subtract:               -13 = -13

Her house is at (-4, 10). Her school is at (-4, 3). The community center is at (2, 3) The grocery store is at (-4, -6) Part A: U
Paha777 [63]

For part A, we will see that the distance is 7 units. For part B, the distance from Nina's house to the school to the grocery store is larger.

<h3>How to find the distances?</h3>

Remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

D = \sqrt{(a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2}

A) Her house is at (-4, 10), and her school is at (-4, 3), so the distance is:

D = \sqrt{(-4 - (-4))^2 + (10 - 3)^2} = \sqrt{7^2}  = 7

The distance is 7 units.

B) In the first case, the distance between the school and the grocery store is:

D' = \sqrt{(-4 - (-4))^2 + (3 - (-6))^2} = 9

So the total distance is 9 + 7 = 16

And the distance between the school and the community center is:

D'' = \sqrt{(-4 - 2)^2 + (3 - 3)^2} = 6

So the total distance is 6 + 7 = 13

So we can see that the total distance from Nina's house, to the school, to the grocery store is larger than the other.

How to add and subtract unlike fractions
melamori03 [73]
Well, to add and subtract unlike fractions, you need to look at both fractions and look at their denominators. next, you need to find the LCD, or the least common denominator. for example : 1/3 + 3/5. what is the least common multiple of 3 and 5? its 15 . and after that , you multiply the top the same amount you multiplied the bottom by, example con. : 1/3 x 5/5= 5/15 and 3/5 x 3/3 = 9/15. then you add the products , 5/15 + 9/15 and you get 14/15.

Divers in a competition are scored by an international panel of judges. The highest and the lowest scores are dropped. The total
Luden [163]

Let

x--------> the degree of difficulty of the dive


we know that

1) The highest and the lowest scores are dropped

so

highest scores=8.5

lowest scores=6.5


the remaining scores=[7.5, 8.0, 7.0, 7.5, 7.0]


2) Find the total of the remaining scores

=[7.5+8+7+7.5+7]\\ =37


3) The total of the remaining scores is multiplied by the degree of difficulty of the dive

so

37*x


4) This product is multiplied by .6 to determine the final score

[37*x]*0.6=77.7\\ 22.2*x=77.7\\ x=3.5


therefore


the answer is

the degree of difficulty of the dive is 3.5
