(A) For x representing the cost of one of Tanya's items, her total purchase cost 5x. The cost of one of Tony's items is then (x-1.75) and the total of Tony's purchase is 6(x-1.75). The problem statement tells us these are equal values. Your equation is ...
... 5x = 6(x -1.75)
(B) Subtract 5x, simplify and add the opposite of the constant.
... 5x -5x = 6x -6·1.75 -5x
... 0 = x -10.50
... 10.50 = x
(C) 5x = 5·10.50 = 52.50
... 6(x -1.75) = 6·8.75 = 52.50 . . . . . the two purchases are the same value
(D) The individual cost of Tanya's iterms was $10.50. The individual cost of Tony's items was $8.75.
Hey DatGamer13!
Question:
Solve for x
Solution:
Subtract 10 from both sides.
3x^2 + 13x − 10 = 10 − 10
3x^2 + 13x − 10 = 0
Factor left side of equation.
(3x − 2) (x + 5) = 0
Set factors equal to 0.
3x − 2 = 0 or x + 5 = 0
Answer:
x = 2/3 or x = −5
Answer:
Nopes 3²+4²≠12²
Step-by-step explanation:
12²=144
3²+4²=
9+16=25
25≠144
To make it easier to see exactly WHY 3²+4²≠12² you can spread out the numbers in the equation.
(3·3)+(4·4)≠(12·12)
When solving equations you use PEMDAS (Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction). You have to solve in THAT ORDER.
Answer:
40/7
Step-by-step explanation:
14x - 71 = 9
14x=80
x=80/14
x=40/7
Let AB = t. And since X lies in the middle, so AX=BX = t/2 .
Let the height of the smaller flagpole is AO and of larger flagpole is BP .
Using tangent ratio rule in each triangle, we will get

And there ratio is
