Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2(2x - 23) = -154

Distribute;

5x + 4x - 46 = -154

Collect like terms

9x - 46 = -154

Add 46 to both sides;

9x = -108

Divide both sides by 9

x = -12

$\boxed{\large{\bold{\blue{ANSWER~:) }}}}$

5x+2(2x-23)=-154

5x+4x-46=-154

9x-46=-154

9x=-154+46

9x=-108

x= $\sf{\dfrac{-108}{9} }$

x=-12

Elenna [48]

Answer:

She did not qualify the exam.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total no of question in a test = 20

No. of question answered correctly = 16

Percentage of question answered correctly

$(\frac{16}{20}) 100 = 80$

But in order to get in the exam the student must have to score at least 90 %. But she got only 80 % so she did not qualify the exam.

Let A be a set of numbers.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a. closed under addition and multiplication

b. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication.

c. not closed under addition and multiplication

d. closed under addition and multiplication

e. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be a set of all integers divisible by 5.

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=5m\,,\,y=5n$

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=5m+5n=5(m+n)$

So, $x+y$ is divisible by 5.

$xy=(5m)(5n)=25mn=5(5mn)$

So,

$xy$ is divisible by 5.

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A = { 2n +1 | n ∈ Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=2m+1\,,\,y=2n+1$ where m, n ∈ Z.

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=2m+1+2n+1=2m+2n+2=2(m+n+1)$

So,

$x+y$ ∉ A

$xy=(2m+1)(2n+1)=4mn+2m+2n+1=2(2mn+m+n)+1$

So,

$xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.

$Let A=\{2,5,8,11,14,...\}$

Let $x=2,y=5$ but $x+y=2+5=7$ ∉A

Also,

$xy=2(5)=10$ ∉A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A = { 17n: n∈Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=17n,y=17m$

Find x + y and xy

$x+y=17n+17m=17(n+m)$

$xy=(17m)(17n)=289mn=17(17mn)$

So,

$x+y,xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A be the set of nonzero real numbers.

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=-1,y=1$

Find x + y

$x+y=-1+1=0$

So,

$x+y$ ∈ A

Also, if x and y are two nonzero real numbers then xy is also a non-zero real number.

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.
