Answer: 2a -5 = 7    and a = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 is less than twice a, the the expression will be  2a -5, since 2 a is the same as 2 times a, and 5 less than 2a is the same as subtracting 5 from 2a. "is" is the same as equal to, so the whole expression has to equal 7.

2a - 5 = 7   You can solve for a by adding 5 to both sides.

   +5    +5

2a = 12         Now divide both sides by 2.

a =  6.

Hi I also need help with this please and thank you
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y intercept

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-2-4)/(2+1)

m=-2 so far we have the slope

y=-2x+b, using point (2,-2) we can solve for b, the y intercept

-2=-2(2)+b

-2=-4+b

2=b so we have our line

y=-2x+2, slope is -2 and y intercept is 2

If the angles of a triangle are 10 45 and 23 what is the perimerter of the triangle
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

No Solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the sum of the angles has to be 180 degrees. It also is impossible to find the length of sides without at least one side, since the range of lengths is practically infinite. There are no solutions to this problem.
