Answer:

add 33 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- \frac{1}{2} x - 33 = 33 ( add 33 to both sides )

- \frac{1}{2} x = 66 ( multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction )

x = - 132

Answer:

First step is to make x the subject of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

-\frac{1}{2} x - 33 = 33\\\\-\frac{1}{2} x= 33 + 33\\\\-\frac{1}{2} x = 66\\\\- x = 2 \times 66 = 132\\x = -132

Measure of Angle 1 is 5x.<br> Measure of Angle 3 is x-24.<br><br> What is the measure of Angle 1?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

m∠ 1 = 5x

m∠ 3 = x - 24

Process

m ∠ 1 = m ∠ 3 because they are vertical angles

            5x = x - 24

            5x - x = 24

            4x = 24

            x = 24 / 4

            x = 6

Angle 1 = 5(6)

            = 30°

What is the value of x in the equation 3 minus 2 x = negative 1.5 x? –6 –2 2 6
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

x=118.25

Step-by-step explanation:

3−2x=−1.5−6−226

3+−2x=−1.5+−6+−226

−2x+3=(−1.5+−6+−226)(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+3=−233.5

−2x+3=−233.5

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−2x+3−3=−233.5−3

−2x=−236.5

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

−236.5

−2

x=118.25

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description. x^2 + 9x + 14 = 0
NISA [10]

B

given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0

Then we can describe the nature of the roots using the discriminant

Δ = b² - 4ac

• if b² - 4ac > 0, then 2 real, distinct and irrational roots

• if b² - 4ac > 0 and a perfect square, then real and rational roots

• if b² - 4ac = 0, then real and equal roots

• if b² - 4ac < 0, then roots are not real

for x² + 9x + 14 = 0

with a = 1, b= 9 and c = 14, then

b² - 4ac = 9² - (4 × 1 × 14 ) = 81 - 56 = 25

Since b² - 4ac > 0 and a perfect square, then roots are real and rational
