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!! :) :]

Help me please. <br> F(x) = 4 - 3x <br> f(10) =
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

f(10) = - 26

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(10), substitute x = 10 into f(x), that is

f(10) = 4 - 3(10) = 4 - 30 = - 26

In the expression a + 2b − 12c2, a, 2b, and −12c2 are examples of _____
Vaselesa [24]
Answer:
Terms

Explanation:
Any expression is formed of terms separated by addition or subtraction.
A term can be a number, a variable or the product of multiplying a number and a variable.
Now, the given expression is:
a + 2b + 12c^2
This expression has three terms all separated by addition. These terms are:
a : which is only a variable
2b : which is the product of a number and a variable
12c^2 : which is the product of a number and a variable

Hope this helps :)

A sample of 13 sheets of cardstock is randomly selected and the following thicknesses are measured in millimeters. Give a point
valina [46]
<h3>Answer:  0.061</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Add up the values to get

1.96+1.81+1.97+1.83+1.87+1.84+1.85+1.94+1.96+1.81+1.86+1.95+1.89= 24.54

Then divide over 13 (the number of values) to get 24.54/13 = 1.8876923 which is approximate.

So the mean is approximately 1.8876923

---------------------

Now make a spreadsheet as shown below

We have the first column as the x values, which are the original numbers your teacher provided. The second column is of the form (x-M)^2, where M is the mean we computed earlier. We subtract off the mean and square the result.

After we compute that column of (x-M)^2 values, we add them up to get what is shown in the highlighted yellow cell at the bottom of the column.

That sum is approximately 0.04403076924

Next, we divide that over n-1 = 13-1 = 12

0.04403076924 /12 = 0.00366923077

That is the sample variance. Apply the square root to this to get the sample standard deviation. This is the point estimate of the population standard deviation. As the name implies, it works for samples that estimate population parameters.

sqrt(0.00366923077) = 0.06057417576822

This rounds to 0.061 which is the final answer.

The graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=2|x| over the x-axis.
Lera25 [3.4K]
Answer: Choice C) 
g(x) = -|2x|

You get this answer by simply sticking a negative out front of the original function. In other words, g(x) = -f(x) or more technically, g(x) = -1*f(x).

The negative will flip every y coordinate from positive to negative (or vice versa)

You'll also use the idea that |2x| = 2|x|. The two can be pulled out since we can say |x*y| = |x|*|y|
So |2*x| = |2|*|x| = 2|x|

The graph of the equation y= -2x+5 will intersect the y-axis when y equals what value
mamaluj [8]
Graphs like these (lines) come in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Y intercept is where the graph intersects the y axis so the value would be 5
