Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = 7x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides: 3 = 4x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides: -7 = 4x
- [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides: -7/4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -7/4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
- Multiply: -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -9/4
Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.
∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:
The sun is about 390 times farther than earth is from the moon
Step-by-step explanation:
It's kind of hard to understand the question but it's essentially asking how many times farther earth is from the sun than earth is from the Moon. Or basically measure the distance from the earth to the moon. Then show how much bigger the distance from the Earth to the Sun is by comparing it from the earth to the moon. To do this you divide the distance of moon by the distance of the sun to get how many times you could you could fit the distance between the Earth and The Moon from the Earth to the Sun.
Answer:
30 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 13 cm
b = 12 cm
using Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 = b^2 + c^2
--> c^2 = a^2 - b^2 = 13^2 - 12^2 = 169 - 144 = 25
--> c = √25 = 5
The area of that right triangle is:
S = b.c / 2 = 12 . 5 / 2 = 30 (cm^2)
