Answer: k = 4

17=5k-3

1. In order to solve this linear equation, we'll need to group all the variable terms on one side, and all the constant terms on the other side of the equation. In the problem, term -3 will be moved on the left side. Notice the sign changes when you move it to the left.

  • 17=5k-3 ⇒ 17 + 3 = (5k - 3) + 3

20 = 5k - 3 + 3

2. Add the numerical terms.

20 = 5k - (3 + 3) = 6. <em>Note: We don't need the six in the 3rd step.</em>

20 = 5k

3. Switch the variable term. (Ex: 3x + 9 ⇒ 9 + 3x)

  • 20 = 5k ⇒ 5k = 20

5k = 20

4. We will need to isolate the variable, to do that, get rid of the coefficient that it multiples. We can do that by dividing 5 by both sides.

  • 5k/5 ÷ 20/5 = 1k/4

5k/5

5. We'll need to reduce 5k/5 to its lowest terms. We can divide the factors that appear both in the numerator and denominator. If we look at 5k/5, 5 appears both in the numerator and denominator.

  • 5k/5 ⇒ k = 2²· 5/5

6. Lastly, we can do the same thing as we did in the 5th step. That'll lead us to k = 2²

7. Solve for 2²

2 x 2 = 4.

Hence, our answer is 4.

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

No she is not correct because we dont have only one angle angle G is 90.

Which of the following correctly names a side of the triangle below?
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

C. \frac{}{AB}

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this in two ways, firstly by eliminating all the wrong answers, and secondly by just knowing that the horizontal line in _\frac{}{AB} means that we are talking about a line.

This is how we solve this question by using the eliminating process.

(A. ∠C) is not the right answer because the ∠ sign lets us know that this answer represents an angle, not a line

(B. <em>B) </em>is not the right answer because it represent a point, not a line (in math we use a singular capital letter to represent points)

(D. ΔABC) is not the right answer because the Δ sign lets us know that the answer represents a triangle, not a line.

Therefore, the only option left is C. \frac{}{AB}
