Answer:
x ≈ 2.87
Step-by-step explanation:
We can subtract 6 to put the equation into a form easily solved.
x^2 +2x +1 = 15
(x +1)^2 = 15
x +1 = √15 . . . . . for the greatest solution, we only need the positive root
x = √15 -1 ≈ 2.87
- (2x+y+2z) = -(2(x+z) + y)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
"In the last 2.5 years, the water level has decreased 0.75 feet."
In the very first statement it has been stated that over the last 2.5 years, the water level in a lake has changed by -0.3 feet per year. That means in the last 2.5 years , total decrease in level is as follows
2.5 x - 0.3 = - .75 ft .
So the statement is true.
B)
"The overall change of the water level after 7.5 years will be -2.75 feet."
This statement appears to be false based on information provided
No prediction regarding rate of decrease for a period beyond 5 year has been made so any statement with respect to a timeline of 7.5 years may turn out to be false.
C)
"The change in water level each year for the next 5 years will be -0.4 feet.
"
This statement prima-facie appears to be true because rate of decrease stated in the statement is 0.4 ft /year for next 5 years .
D )
"The overall change in water level for the next 5 years is equal to 5(0.4)"
this statement is true
as change in one year = .4
change in 5 years = 5 x .4
Answer:
x=80* y=20* and X=100*
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume PQ || OR then by alternate interior angles x is equal to 80 degrees and y is equal to 20 degrees.
We know that a triangle adds up to 180 degrees.
Angle ROX and XRO add up to 100 degrees. Leaving RXO equal to 80 degrees. (180-100=80).
By opposite angles, QXP is equal to 80 degrees also.
Then we are left with solving for X.
Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.
Subtract angle OXR from 180 and we are left with angle OXP = X = 100 degrees.
So now we have….
-(-3.5) + (-12.8) = ?
{the double negative symbols change into a positive}
3.5 + (-12.8) = ?
3.5 - 12.8 = ?
Answer = -9.3
Your answer is a. -9.3
Hope this helps :)
