Solve for x if -10x+67=17 the answer is:
D) x=10
Vilka [71]3 years ago

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you need to subtract 67 from 17 to get the variable alone.

That will leave you with -10x=-50

Then you need to divide -10 and -50,

Two negatives make a positive so

x=5

Answer is C

Why are inverse relationships between operations used to solve two step inequalities?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

Reverse addition and subtraction (by subtracting and adding) outside parentheses. Reverse multiplication and division (by dividing and multiplying) outside parentheses. When multiplying or dividing by a negative number, flip the inequality sign. It does not matter if the number being divided is positive or negative

It's necessary to apply inverse operations on both sides of the equals signs so that you can solve for the variable and balance the equation.

Multi-step inequalities are solved using the same processes that work for solving equations with one exception. When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol. (Much like when you divide by a negative number, the sign of the inequality must flip! Here's why: When you multiply both sides by a negative value you make the side that is greater have a "bigger" negative number, which actually means it is now less than the other side!)

Is 40 a multiple of 8
Natasha2012 [34]
Yes because,
8×1 = 8
8×2 = 16
8×3 = 24
8×4 = 32
8×5 = 40

So 40 is a multiple of 8

Estimate the answer to the following problem to the nearest 10 13+46+87= a. 130 b.155 c.160 d.150
Lunna [17]
150

13+46= 59
59+87= 146

Round 46 to the nearest ten, which in this case would be 50 because the last number is larger than a 5. 

Then add the 1 back in to make it 150.

How do I solve this equation
Anestetic [448]
-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1

Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts.  First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable.  I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.

-x - y = 8      add y to each side
-x = 8 + y      divide by -1
x = -8 - y

So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation.  In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.

2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1      multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1      combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1            add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15                   divide each side by -3
y = -5

Now we have a value for y.  We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x.  I usually choose the most simple equation.

-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8            multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8                subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3                      divide each side by -1
x = -3

So our solution set is

(-3, -5)

That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
