Mathematics
1 answer:
Svetllana [295]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<h2><em><u>x = -1</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>1. Distribute</u></em>

3x + 3 = -2x + 2 - 4

<em><u>2. Simplify</u></em>

-2x + 2 - 4

2-4 = -2

-2x - 2

<em><u>3. Solve</u></em>

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

+2x       +2x

<em><u>4. Cont. Solving</u></em>

5x + 3 = -2

     -3     -3

5x = -5

<em><u>5. Divide by 5</u></em>

5x = -5

/5      /5

<h2><em><u>x = -1</u></em></h2><h2><em><u /></em></h2>

Hope this helped,

PLS HELP 50 POINTS<br><br> Calculate m∠ABC and m∠CBD, what is the value of x?
dusya [7]

Answer:

bottom right, x = 90

bottom left, x = 40

top left, x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem uses the variable x to mean three different numbers.

This is an incorrect use of a variable.

On the bottom right, x is a right angle, so x = 90.

On the bottom left, x + 5 = 45, so x = 40.

On the top left, 3x + 6 = 90, so x = 28.

What is the slope of the line passing through (1, 2) and (3, 8)?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Points given are

(1,2) and (3,8)

The formula used for slope is:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

x₁ = 1, x₂=3, y₁=2 and y₂=8

m=\frac{8-2}{3-1}\\m=\frac{6}{2}\\m=3

So, slope =3

Option C is correct.

I'd the ratio 25 to 16 proportional to the ratio 5 to 4 explain
Arturiano [62]
Yes, 5:4 is the simplified form of 25:16. 25 divided by 5 is 5 (the lowest possible number it can be made into). 16 divided by 4 is 4 (also the lowest possible number it can be made into).

The height of a punted football can be modeled by the function: f(x) = -.0079 x2 + 1.8x + 1.5. In this equation, f(x) is the hei
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The function used to represent the height of a punted football can be modeled as

f(x) = -.0079x² + 1.8x + 1.5

Where f(x) is the height in feet, and x is the horizontal distance, also in feet.

a) when the ball was punted, x = 0, therefore, the height of the punted ball would be

f(x) = -.0079(0)² + 1.8(0) + 1.5

f(x) = 1.5 feet

The height is 1.5 feet

b) The equation is a quadratic equation. The plot of this equation on a graph would give a parabola whose vertex would be equal to the maximum height reached by the punted ball.

The vertex of the parabola is calculated as follows,

Vertex = -b/2a

From the equation,

a = - 0.0079

b = 1.8

Vertex = - - 1.8/0.0079 = 227.84 feet

So the maximum height of the punt is 227.84 feet

What is the measure of arc PQ​
Anni [7]

Answer:

x = 15

arc PQ = 110°

ΔPQR is an acute triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x) + (8x-10) + (10x+10) = 360°

combine like terms:

24x = 360°

x = 15

arc PQ = 8(15) - 10° = 110°
