Answer: No value for x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: open the bracket

5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4 (4x +5) + 13

-15x + 10 - x +3= -16x - 20 +13

Step 2: combine like terms

-15x - x + 16x = -20 +13 -10 -3

-16× +16× = -20

0= -20

Start off by distributing the numbers into the parentheses:

5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
-15x - 10 - (x - 3) = -16x - 20 + 13

(Note: It's super important to be careful when opening up negative parentheses! -(x-3) is not just - x - 3, it is actually -x + 3 since the negative is distributed in every number!)

-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
-16x = -16x
0 = 0

There is an infinite number of solutions in this equation.

(When you get 0=0 when solving for a variable, that means that said variable will have infinite solutions, that is, any number plugged into the equation will work)

Someone please help me with this geometry proof question ASAP!
vivado [14]

Answer:

if ∠Q=∠R

draw an angular bisector from P to QR in which it intersect wit Qr at point S

now we have two triangle : QPS and RSP

in which angle : QPS=RPS ( PS is angular bisector)

and we have angle Q and angle R are equal

and PS is common side

this makes triangle QPS and RSP are congruent by AAS(angle angle side)

which also means that pQ=PR ( proved)

Mariana [72]

The question is incomplete. The map is attached as a photo and here is the complete question:

a. What is the actual distance between Saugerties and

Kingston? ___________________________

b. Catskill is 15 miles from Saugerties. What would the

distance on the map be? ___________________________

c. On another map, the distance between Saugerties and

Kingston is 2 inches. What would the distance from Saugerties to

Catskill be on this map? __________________

Since you have asked the answer for part (c) only, here is the answer:

Answer:

<u>The distance from Saugerties to Catskill would be </u><u>3 inches</u><u> on this map.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

On the given map, the distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 4 inches and the scale is <u>1 inch = 2.5 miles.</u>

To calculate the actual distance in miles between Saugerties and Kingston, consider the given scale:

1 inch ---------- 2.5 miles

4 inches ------ x miles

Cross multiplying:

1x = 2.5 x 4

x = 10 miles

The actual distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 10 miles.

On another map, the distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 2 inches. Which means the scale is 2 inches = 10 miles. So 1 inch = 10/2 = 5 miles

The scale on the other map is 1 inch = 5 miles.

Catskill is 15 miles from Saugerties (given in the previous part). So on the map:

1 inch -------- 5 miles

y inch ------- 15 miles

Cross multiplying:

15 = 5y

y = 15/5

<u>y = 3 inches.</u>

The distance from Saugerties to Catskill would be 3 inches on this map.

The numerator of the given fraction is 4 less than the denominator. If 5 is added to both numerator and denominator, the resulti
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be x and numerator be y.

Given, numerator is 4 less than denominator

=> y = x - 4 ...(1)

When 5 is added to both:

Numerator = y + 5 , and, denominator = x + 5

Now their ratio is 5/7.

=> (y + 5)/(x + 5) = 5/7

=> 7(y + 5) = 5(x + 5)

=> 7y + 35 = 5x + 25

=> 7y - 5x = 25 - 35

=> 7(x - 4) - 5x = -10 {y=x-4}

=> 7x - 28 - 5x = -10

=> 2x = 18

=> x = 9

Thus,

Fraction is y/x = (x-4)/x = (9-4)/9 = 5/9
