Answer:

I got 9.

Step - By - Step Explanation:

7x - 13 = 5x + 5

7x = 5x + 18

2x = 18

x = 18 ÷ 2 = 9

x = 9

7(x) - 13 = 5(x) + 5
7x - 91 = 5x + 25
7x - 5x - 91 = 25
2x - 91 = 25
2x = 25 + 91
2x = 116
x = 58

Please make sure your answer is correct
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

First one should be 3 1/4 or 3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is count up the lines so in this case we have 4 lines so we do 100/4 = 25 so each line is 0.25 or 1/4 and since it's after 3 it should be 3 1/4 or 3.25

Create an equation to solve for x using the trapezoid midsegment formula:
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Equation for x:    3x - 6 = \frac{2x - 1 + 25}{2}

x = 9

CD = 17

GH = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The midsegment formula for a trapezoid is

GH = \frac{CD + FE}{2}

3x - 6 = \frac{2x - 1 + 25}{2}

6x - 12 = 2x + 24

4x = 36

x = 9

CD = 2x - 1 = 2(9) - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17

GH = 3x - 6 = 3(9) - 6 = 3 = 27 - 6 = 21

A pharmacist has a 12% solution and a 20% solution of boric acid. How much of each should she use to make 80 grams of a 15% solu
nlexa [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80

Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.

We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.

We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.

x = 80 - y

.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12

9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12

.08y = 2.4

y = 30

x = 80 - 30 = 50
