Answer:

x = -1.5

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Alg</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

0.2x + 1 = 1.6x + 3.1

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 0.2x on both sides:          1 = 1.4x + 3.1
  2. Subtract 3.1 on both sides:             -2.1 = 1.4x
  3. Divide both sides by 1.4:                 -1.5 = x
  4. Rewrite:                                            x = -1.5

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitution:                    0.2(-1.5) + 1 = 1.6(-1.5) + 3.1
  2. Multiply:                           -0.3 + 1 = -2.4 + 3.1
  3. Add:                                 0.7 = 0.7

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if a line is parallel to y = -(2/3)x + 8 you need to check if the coefficients at y and x are of the same ratio. This immediately removes answers A and C, because of the wrong sign at x compared to y.

What's left is to see which of the answers B and D passes through (4, -5) by inputting x = 4 and y = -5

B.

left = -5 - 5 = -10

right = -(2/3)(4 + 4) = -16/3

So it's D. Let's verify:

D.

left = -5 + 5 = 0

right = -(2/3)(4 - 4) = 0

Checks out.

Your school counselor has given you clear directions that you and your best friend should not be seen within 240 feet of each ot
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

1. 80 yd

2. 10 and 10 of the other side

3. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. As we were asked to stay 240 feet away, and we will be on a soccer field and it has marked distances in yards we just have to pass our feet to yards.

1 ft = 1/3 yd

240 ft = 240/3 yd

240 ft =  80 yd

2. one would have to stand in yard 10 and the other in yard 10 but from the other side of the field

50-10 = 40

40 + 40 = 80 yd

3.  

if they are diagonally the distance will be greater than 80, since the yards are parallel, because only the distance would remain only if they are on the same height
