Answer:6x+36, 5x+5, 10x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
First you move. -x for +x
2y = 16 + x
y = 8 + 1/2 x
the answer is
y = 1/2x + 8

Rounding to nearest thousand gives 76,000 mg of chlorine
Answer:
The weight of grapefruit is now 80 pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Let the x is the weight loss. The weight of grapefruit is 100 pounds and water is 92%. After evaporation water is 90%.
Thus the weight loss is:





Hence, the weight loss is 80 pounds.
Therefore, New weight is 100 - 20 = 80 pounds
The weight of grapefruit is now 80 pound.
First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now
2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4
At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real.
Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result.
For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196
No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.
So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to
x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
