Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3х - 5 = 10 + 8x

Subtract 3x from each side

3х-3x - 5 = 10 + 8x-3x

-5 = 10+5x

Subtract 10 from each side

-5-10 = 10+5x -10

-15 = 5x

Divide each side by 5

-15/5= 5x/5

-3 =x

The weight of gemstones, such as diamonds, rubies, and emeralds, is measured in carats. A carat is a unit of measure equal to 20

Alexxx [7]

We are told in the question that 1 carat is equal to 200 mg.

The Hope Diamond is 44.5 carats. Let's multiply the weight of 1 carat by 44.5 to get the weight of the Hope Diamond in mg:

$\frac{200mg}{1 carat}* \frac{44.5 carats}{1}=8,900 mg$

The total weight of the Hope Diamond is 8,900 mg. However the question asks for the weight in grams. There are 1000 mg in 1 gram, so let's divide the known weight of the Hope Diamond in mg by 1000 to get the weight converted to grams:

$\frac{8,900mg}{1000}=8.9grams$

Now we know that the weight of the Hope Diamond is equal to 8.9 grams.

How do I write an equation for a line with a slope of ²/³ that has a y-intercept at -2.Titer eat at 2

maxonik [38]

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Slope, b = 2/3

y - intercept, c = - 2

The equation of a line can be expressed in slope intercept form as :

y = bx + c

b = slope ; c = y - intercept

Hence, line equation becomes ;

y = 2/3x - 2

Answer:

C: I and III only.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers x and y such that:

$-y$

And we want to determine which of the following conditions must be true.

First, let's examine the third condition. We have:

$y>0$

To see if this is true, let's try a negative value for y. So, let's use -7. This will give:

$-(-7)$

Simplify:

$7$

This is saying we need a number less than -7 and greater than 7.

This is impossible. So, y must be greater than 0.

Therefore, Condition III must be true.

Next, let's see this compound inequality visually.

Picture the following number-line:

<----------(-y)----------0----------y---------->

Whatever y is, -y is just y on the negative side.

Now, since our condition is that -y<x<y, this means that our x can be anywhere between -y and y. Namely:

<----------(-y)----------0----------y---------->

To determine our correct condition, let's picture x anywhere on the bolded lines. I'm just going to put x here...

<----------(-y)-------(x)--0----------y---------->

Now, remember the alternative definition for absolute value. Namely, the absolute value of x is also the distance from 0 to x. And this distance is always positive.

Since our x is between -y and y, our distance from 0 to x will always be less than the distance from 0 to either y.

Therefore, Condition I is also true.

Let's try an example. Let's let y = 9. So, -y=-9. And let's let x be between 9 and -9, say, -2. So:

<---(-9)-----(-2)--0--------(9)------>

We can see that:

$|-2|=2\stackrel{\checkmark}{$

Also, this example counters Condition II, as our x can indeed be negative if we desire it.

Algebraically, if we have a negative x such that:

$-y$

We can divide everything by -1 to obtain:

$y>x>-y$

We can flip this to get:

$-y$

Which is our original inequality. So, Condition II does not need to be true.

So, the two conditions that must be true is I and III.

So, our answer is C.
