How do you solve -178=-5x+4(-4x-13)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

-4x - 13  =   -1 • (4x + 13)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 2: </u></em>

 -178 -  (-5x +  -4 • [4x + 13] )  = 0

  • <em><u>Pull out like factors: </u></em>

  21x - 126  =   21 • (x - 6)

  • <em><u>Equation at the end of step 4: </u></em>

 21 • (x - 6)  = 0

  • <em><u>Solve:</u></em>

x-6 = 0  

  • <em><u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation:</u></em>

x = 6

Triangle ABC and triangle DCE are congruent, so line DE = line AB

Use the cosine rule to find angle ACB
52.2^{2}= 50^{2}+  70^{2}-(2*50*70*cos(ACB))
2724.84=7400-(7000cos(ACB))
2724.84-7400=-7000cos(ACB)
-4675.16=-7000cos(ACB)
\frac{4675.16}{7000}=cos(ACB)
Angle ACB= cos^{-1} ( \frac{4675.16}{7000})
Angle ACB = 48.1°

By what percent will the product of two numbers change, if the first number increases by 70%, while the second number decreases
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first number

It increases by 70 %

The new number is

m = x+ .70x

   = 1.7x

Let y be the second number

It decreases by 40 %

The new number is

n =y - .40 y

  = .6y


The product of the original numbers is xy

The product of the new number is

mn = (1.7x * .6y) = 1.02xy

The new number is larger than the old number so it is an increase.

Percent increase is  new - original divided by original  times 100%

Percent increase = (1.02 xy - xy)

                                -----------------  * 100%

                                 xy  

                           = .02 xy

                                ------- * 100 %

                                 xy  

                            = .02 * 100 %

                             = 2%
