Solve the equation 5x + 2(2x -23) = -154

Mathematics

sammy [17]2 years ago

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

Simora [160]
Significant figures are numbers after the decimal point, which have usually been rounded. There are four numbers after the decimal point, so there are 4 significant figures.

What multiples to 42 and adds to -2
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 42

x+y = - 2                   Substitute into the top equation

y = -2 - x                   Put in for y

x(-2 - x) = 42             Remove the brackets

-2x - x^2 = 42           Subtract 42 from both sides.

-2x - x^2 - 42 = 0      Put in the more normal order.

-x^2 - 2x - 42 = 0      Multiply by -1

x^2 + 2x + 42 = 0

This cannot be factored. It gives complex roots as it is written. I will give you the answer but I kind of doubt the question is correct.

x1 = - 1 + 6.40i

x2 = -1 - 6.40i

Leave a comment if you have a correction.

The data table represents the distance between a well-known lighthouse and a cruise ship over time. The cruise ship is travellin
Trava [24]
Find the velocity first, the "slope".

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(95.5-53)/(4-2)

m=21.25  ?  Your equations are wrong, I'll double check with another set of points...

m=(350.5-308)/(16-14)

m=21.25  LOL, yep none of your lines has the correct slope.

Anyway...

y=21.25x+b, using any point we can solve for the y-intercept, or "b", (2, 53)

53=21.25(2)+b

53=42.5+b

10.5=b so the distance to the lighthouse as a function of time is:

y=21.25x+10.5

So essentially, you should fire your teacher or burn that book you are using :)
