Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ( 2x - 8 ) + 15 = -15 (write the equation)

5 ( 2x - 8 ) = -30 (subtract by 15 on both sides)

2x - 8 = -6 (divide by 5 on both sides)

2x = 2 (add 8 to both sides)

x = 1 (divide by 2 on both sides)

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Skills needed: One-Variable Equations, Solving Equations</u>

1) The first thing is to use P.E.M.D.A.S

There are no Parentheses, or Exponents, so we go to multiplication

The quantity we multiply is: 5(2x-8)

Using distributive property (which is a(b+c) = ab+ac), you get:

5(2x-8) = 5(2x) - 5(8) = 10x - 40

2) Now, we substitute back in and combine like terms:

10x-40+15=-15

Combine the -40 and 15 (-40+15=-25)

Then, you will get: (10x-25=-15)

3) Add 25 to both sides, to isolate the variable:

10x = -15+25, and then -15+25 is 10, so

10x = 10

4) Divide by 10 on both sides, and get x = 1

Hope this helps and have a nice day!! :) :]

A used bookstore will trade 2 of its books for 3 of yours. If Val brings in 18 books to trade, How many books can she get from t
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

She will get 12 books from the store

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve

2 books out      x books out

------------------- =-----------------------------

3 books in          18 books in from Val


Using cross products

2 * 18 = 3 *x

Divide each side by 3

2*18 /3 = 3x/3

2*6 = x

12 =x

She will get 12 books from the store

If triangle RST is within Quadrant 4 and cos R= √3/2, what is the value of cotR
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

CotR = -√3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 4th quadrant, sin is negative;

Since Cos R = √3/2,

Adjacent = √3

Hypotenuse = 2

Get the opposite;

opp^2 = 2^2 -(√3)^2

opp^2 = 4 - 3

opp^2 = 1

Opp = 1

Get sinR

Sin R = opp/hyp

SinR=  -1/2

CotR = cosR/sinR

CostR = (√3/2)/(-1/2)

CotR = √3/2* -2/1

CotR = -√3

Graph the point (4, -1) on the coordinate plane below.<br>​
dimulka [17.4K]
See the blue dot in the attached image.



First, find the x value on the coordinate plane. The x value is the first number in the point coordinates, so in this case, it is 4. Move to the right 4. (If it was negative, you would move to the left.)

Then, find the y value, which is the second number of the coordinates. In this case, it is -1, so move down 1. (If it was positive, you’d move up.)

Now, mark this point. This is (4, -1).

Hello there! <br><br> Can I get someone help please ? Thanks!

Since they are right triangles use Pythagorean Theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse.

a.  12^2 + b^2 = 13^2
144 + b^2 = 169
subtract 144 from both sides
b^2 = 25
take the square root of both sides
t = 5  This is also know as a Pythagorean Triple 5-12-13

b.  a^2 + 9^2 = 12^2
     a^2 + 81 = 144
subtract 81 from both sides
a^2 = 63
take the square root of both sides
a = √63
a = √(9 * 7)
a = 3√7

c.   6^2 + 9^2 = c^2
    36 + 81 = c^2
117 = c^2
take the square root of each side
c = √117
c = √(9*13)
x = 3√13
