Answer:

x=-6/29

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(3x+2)−2=2(1−7x)

(5)(3x)+(5)(2)+−2=(2)(1)+(2)(−7x)(Distribute)

15x+10+−2=2+−14x

(15x)+(10+−2)=−14x+2(Combine Like Terms)

15x+8=−14x+2

Step 2: Add 14x to both sides.

15x+8+14x=−14x+2+14x

29x+8=2

Step 3: Subtract 8 from both sides.

29x+8−8=2−8

29x=−6

Step 4: Divide both sides by 29.

29x/29=-6/29

x=-6/29

Adrian is a songwriter who collects royalties on his songs whenever they are played in a commercial or movie. Adrian will earn $

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Adrian's songs played on 9 commercials and 5 movies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes number of commercials and y denotes number of movies.

Total number of commercials and movies = 14

So,

$x+y=14\\x=14-y\,\,\,\,...(i)$

Adrian will earn $40 every time one of his songs is played in a commercial and he will earn $130 every time one of his songs is played in a movie

Total amount earned = $1010

$40x+130y=1010\,\,\,...(ii)$

Put $x=14-y$ in (ii)

$40(14-y)+130y=1010\\560-40y+130y=1010\\90y=1010-560\\90y=450\\y=\frac{450}{90}=5$

Put $y=5$ in $x=14-y$

$x=14-5=9$

Therefore, Adrian's songs played on 9 commercials and 5 movies.

A model of a submarine has a length of 6.6 meters. Use the scale 1:35 to find the length

kirill115 [55]

The scale 1:35 indicates that for every 1 meter on the scale model, there are really 35 meters in real life.

So if the scale model is 6.6 meters, you would do 35 * 6.6 to find the length in real life, which is 231 meters.

The answer is 231 meters.
