Is x= 6 a solution to the equation –18 = -2(x + 3)?

Mathematics

Answer:

Yes, it is

Step-by-step explanation:

If you substitute the value of x into the equation, we would get:

-18=-2(6+3)

By using BIDMAS (or whatever else people use, BODMAS, PEDMAS), we first have to do the brackets. In the brackets we have 6+3 (which equals 9).

Now our equation can be simplified to -18=-2(9).

Now  we simply multiply -2 with 9, as a number next to something in a bracket usually means multiplication. If you multiply a positive by a negative, the product will be negative. Therefore, -9 x 2 = -18.

<u>This proves it is a correct solution.</u>

To find explicit formulas, you need two things. The common difference and the first term.

For example, #18

The first term = -15

The common difference = -20 -(-15) = -20 + 15 = -5

y = A + B(n - 1)

A = our first term

B = our common difference

n = the term you want to find in the sequence.

Leta plug our numbers in from #18

y = -15 + -5(n - 1)

Let's find the 4th term in the sequence.

y = -15 + -5(4 - 1)

y = -15 + -5(3)

y = -15 + -15

y = -30

Determine the constant of variation for the direct variation given.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

B. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that R varies directly with S. When S is 16, R is 80. We are asked to find constant of variation.

We know that two directly proportional quantities are in form y=kx, where,

k = Constant of variation.

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

R=k*S

80=k*16

\frac{80}{16}=\frac{k*16}{16}

5=k

Therefore, the constant of variation is 5 and option B is the correct choice.

Two angles are supplementary if their sun is 180. The larger angle measures five degrees more than four times the measures of a
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The smaller angle is 35 and the larger one is 145.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to express the larger angle in terms of the smaller angle (x).

4x + 5 = large angle.

Now that we have this, we can add them together and set equal to 180.

x + (4x + 5) = 180

5x + 5 = 180

5x = 175

x = 35

Now that we have the value of the smaller angle, we can plug in to get the larger angle.

y = 4x + 5

y = 4(35) + 5

y = 140 + 5

y = 145
