Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

5x = 2

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide 5 on both sides:                    x = 2/5

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                     5(2/5) = 2
  2. Multiply:                                2 = 2

Here we see that 2 does indeed equal 2.

∴ x = 2/5 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

Length of the minor arc AB = 5.27777777778 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you would require a simple proportionality.

The ratio of the degree of the minor arc (95 degrees) over the total, 360 degrees of every circle, comparative to the length of the minor over the circumference (20 cm).

Here we can propose that the length of the minor can be equal to x.

Now let's substitute the known values:

95 / 360 = x / 20

Now cross multiply:

360 * x = 95 * 20 ⇒

360x = 1900 ⇒

x = 5.27777777778 ⇒

length of the minor arc AB = 5.27777777778 cm

Solve w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0<br><br>with the steps pls​
Bess [88]

Answer:

w=2  w = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0

We can factor this equation

What 2 numbers multiply to -18 and add to 7

9*-2 = -18

9+-2 = 7

(w-2) (w+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

w-2 = 0    w+9 =0

w=2  w = -9

Aneesha travels at a rate of 50 miles per hour. Morris is traveling 3 feet per second less than Aneesha. Which is the best estim
astra-53 [7]
It would be nice to know some options, but here's Morris's speed.
Since Morris is traveling at three feet per second, we want to change it to per hour.
3 * 3600 = 10800 feet per hour
And we would want to convert that to miles per hour.
10800/5280 is about 2, more specifically 2.05 ish.
So Morris is traveling 2 mph less then 50, or about 48 mph.
