Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must add 4 to both sides.

-2 = -4 + x

+4      +4

-4 + 4 = 0

-2 +4 = 2

Isolating a variable means that it is alone on its side of the eqation.

2 = x

x is now isolated and we also have the solution for it.

x = 2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 4 to both sides:

-2=-4+x​

-2+4=-4+4+x​

2=x

Miss Lianto mowed 2/7 of her lawn. Her son mowed 1/4 of it. Who mowed most of the lawn? How much of the lawn still needs to be m
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: 2/7 = 8/28

1/4 = 7/28

Therefore Mr Pham mowed more.

8+7 = 15 so 15/28 of lawn has been mowed, therefore 13/28 of the lawn is left still to be mowed.

Mr. Pham mowed more of the lawn than his son.

it still needs ¹³/₂₈ of the lawn to be mowed.

If the largest angle of a triangle is 120° and it is included between sides of 1.5 and 0.5, then (to the nearest tenth) the larg
12345 [234]

Answer:

1.8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other and the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle is formed by the intersection of the two lines. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of the largest side of the triangle. The cosine rule is:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).

The question specifies that a=0.5, B=120°, and c=1.5. Plugging in the values:

b^2 = 0.5^2 + 1.5^2 - 2(0.5)(1.5)*cos(120°).

Simplifying gives:

b^2 = 3.25.

Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 1.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth).

This means that the length of the third side is 1.8 units!!!

parker correctly answered 70% of the questions on his math test. If he answered 35 questions correctly, how many questions were
Alexandra [31]

Let the total number of questions in the math test be defined by the variable x.

Now, we know that Parker correctly answered 35 questions. These 35 questions make 70% of the total number of questions on his math test.

The information we have above can be expressed as an equation given below:

70% of x=35

This can be rewritten as:

\frac{70}{100}x=35

Thus, to find the total number of questions we will have to isolate x.

\therefore x=\frac{35\times 100}{70}=50

Therefore, there were a total of 50 questions in the math test.

If y varies directly with x. and y=10 when x=5.6, find the value of y when<br> X=3
Nady [450]

Answer: 5.3571

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate direct proportion is: y = kx

We will find the constant of proportionality when y=10 and x=5.6. This will be:

y = kx

10 = 5.6k

k = 10/5.6

k = 1.7857143

The value of y when X=3 will be:

y = kx

y = 1.7857143 × 3

y = 5.3571
