Answer:

z = 4.8

m = 5 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get and z

We use the principle of similar triangles

5/3 = 8/z

5z = 24

z = 24/5

z = 4.8

To get m;

3/m-2 = 4.8/m

3m = 4.8(m-2)

3m = 4.8m - 9.6

4.8m - 3m = 9.6

1.8m = 9.6

m = 9.6/1.8

m = 5 1/3

Which of the following are solutions to 2x^2-8x-90? select all that apply.
Lyrx [107]
<span>Simplifying:
2x2 + -8x + -90 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-90 + -8x + 2x2 = 0

Solving
-90 + -8x + 2x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.
2(-45 + -4x + x2) = 0

Factor a trinomial.
2((-5 + -1x)(9 + -1x)) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.
Subproblem 1:

Set the factor '(-5 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-5 + -1x = 0

Solving
-5 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -1x = 0 + 5

Combine like terms:
-5 + 5 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + 5 -1x = 0 + 5

Combine like terms:
0 + 5 = 5 -1x = 5

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = -5

Simplifying
x = -5

Subproblem 2:

Set the factor '(9 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
9 + -1x = 0

Solving
9 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-9' to each side of the equation.
9 + -9 + -1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms:
9 + -9 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -9 -1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms:
0 + -9 = -9 -1x = -9

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 9

Simplifying x = 9

Solution
x = {-5, 9}</span>

Hello! Can someone help with this question?
IgorC [24]

Hello! :)

\large\boxed{\text{70 seconds}}

Use a proportion to find how many seconds are needed to fold 5 shirts.

We are given that he takes 28 seconds to fold 2 shirts:

28 sec : 2 shirts

We are not given the amount of time needed for 5 shirts, which we need to solve:

x seconds : 5 shirts

Express in a fraction:

\frac{2 shirts}{28 seconds}  = \frac{5 shirts}{xseconds}

Cross multiply and simplify:

2 * x = 5 * 28\\\\2x = 140\\\\x = 70 sec

Therefore, he needs 70 seconds to fold 5 shirts.

Solve: -4x-8x+17=23<br> check solution
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

x = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, we first need to combine like terms:

-12x+17=23

Simplify further:

-12x=6

Divide by -12 on both sides to get:

x = -\frac{1}{2}

To check  the solution, plug x back into the original equation and check if we get the correct answer:

-4(-\frac{1}{2})-8(-\frac{1}{2})+17=23

2+4+17= 23

23=23

Thus, it checks out and our answer is correct.
