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

SOLVE. integration of (1-v) /(1+v^2)
Marta_Voda [28]
I think you have to first separate the integral:1/(1+v^2) + v/(1+v^2),
so the integral of the first term is ArcTan (v) and for the integral of the second term i recommend you to do a change of variable:

y= 1+v^2
 so
 dy= 2v
 and
v= dy/2and then you substitute:v/(1+v^2) = (1/2)(dy/y)
and the integral is
 (1/2) (In y)finally you plug in the initial variables:

(1/2)(In [1+v^2])

so the total integral is:

ArcTan (y) + (1/2)(In [1+v^2])

In the right triangle above a=2.7 and b=4.3. Find the value of c, rounded to the nearest tenth
morpeh [17]

Answer:

  5.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no diagram provided here, we assume that c is the length of the hypotenuse, so we have ...

  c² = a² +b² . . . . . . Pythagorean theorem

  c² = 2.7² +4.3² = 25.78

  c = √25.78 ≈ 5.0774

  c ≈ 5.1

Tickets at a play cost $10 or $14. If 800 tickets were sold and $9,040 was collected by the box office, how many $14 tickets wer
pav-90 [236]
STEP 1:
determine equations needed

x= # of $10 tickets
y= # of $14 tickets

QUANTITY EQUATION
x + y= 800

COST EQUATION
$10x + $14y= $9,040


STEP 2:
multiply quantity equation by -14

-14(x + y)= -14(800)
-14x - 14y= -11,200


STEP 3:
add new quantity equation in step 2 to cost equation of step 1 to solve for x using elimination

-14x - 14y= -11,200
10x + 14y= 9040
y term cancels out

-4x= -2160
divide both sides by -4

x= 540 ten dollar tickets


STEP 4:
substitute x value in step 3 into either original equation

x + y= 800
540 + y= 800
subtract 540 from both sides

y= 260 fourteen dollar tickets


ANSWER: There were 540 $10 tickets and 260 $14 tickets sold.

Hope this helps! :)
