Our current equation is:
-8r -31 = -3(5r -6)
To solve for this, we need to get r on one side of the equation and then simplify if needed.
On the right side of the equation, we have a pending Distributive Property, which is when you multiply the number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all numbers/variables in the parenthesis.
Let's simplify this Distributive Property to help understand our equation better.
-3(5r -6)
Multiply -3 by each number/variable separately (unless they are already being multiplied, like 2x, 1/2x, etc).
-3(5r) + -3(-6).
-3(5r) = -15r
-3(-6) = 18 (both negatives need to be in parenthesis to keep a product as negative, and if you do not multiply them in that way, you will end up with a positive product).
Your equation now is:
-8r -31 = -15r + 18
Add 15r to both sides to get r on one side.
7r -31 = 18 is now our current equation.
Add 31 to both sides to get 7r by itself.
7r = 49 is now our equation.
r is still being multiplied by 7, so we need to do the opposite of multiplying by 7.
Divide both sides by 7.
r = 7.

For this question, this might help.
17.47 degrees is 17 + 0.47 degrees
If you are using minutes instead of decimal degrees, multiply the fraction by 60. So,
0.47 degrees * 60 minutes per degree= 28.2 minutes
Now you have 17 degrees 28.2 minutes
but you can replace fractions of a minute with seconds
0.2 minutes * 60 seconds per minute= 12 seconds
So the answer for
17.47º is equal to 17º 28' 12".

105 m = 2.5 h
x miles = 1 hour
You cross multiply since it's a proportion:
2.5 * x
105 * 1
=
2.5x = 105
Then you divide everything by 2.5
The answer is 42
Answer: Choice C) y = 30/x
Inverse variation equations are of the form y = k/x. In this case, k = 30. We can rearrange the format to get x*y = k after multiplying both sides by x. So y = 30/x can be turned into x*y = 30.
