Is 10x-5=8x-2x + 7 -2 equivalent?

Mathematics

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets simpify one side first

8x - 2x + 7 +2

8-2 = 6

so 6x

7-2 = 5

6x+9

10x - 5 = 6x +5

(You add 5 due to it being negative on the other side)

+5             +5

10x= 6x +10

-6x    -6x

4x = 10

Divide each side by 4

x = 2.5 or 10/4 or 5/2

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: To find whether these are equivalent, we first need to simplify the equation on the right.

8x-2x+7-2

8x-2x+5  (work-    7-2 = 5)

6x+5       (work-    8x-2x=6x) These are like terms, so we can subtract them

now that we have simplified, let's write the equations once again.

10x-5=6x+5

they are surely not equivalent

Find the 12th term of the sequence -15,-9,-3, 3
Reika [66]
First term (a) = -15
common difference(d)= -9-(-15)
= -9+15=6
So,
12th term(a12)= a +(n-1)d
= -15+(12-1)×6
= -15 + 11×6
= -15+66
= 51

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (-4,6) and (-8,-2)
umka2103 [35]
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).

The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8.  The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2.  Now, we can plug these into our formula.

((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)

So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.
