-2.3x + 4.2x = 15.01         original equation

1.9x = 15.01                    combine like terms

1.9x/1.9 = 15.01/1.9        divide both sides by 1.9 to get x alone

<u>x = 7.9</u>                           simplify

CHECK YOUR WORK:

<u>plug in the solution to x into the original equation like so:</u>

-2.3(7.9) + 4.2(7.9) = 15.01        original equation w/ substitute for x

-18.17 + 33.18 = 15.01                simplify multiplication

<u>15.01 = 15.01</u>                             simplify addition

<u>When you get an answer like this, you know that the solution to x that you found is correct.</u>

Answer:

x = 7.9

Step-by-step explanation:

-2.3x + 4.2x = 15.01

combine like terms

1.9x = 15.01

divide both sides by 1.9

x = 7.9

The wading pool shown is a trapezoidal prism with a total volume of 286 cubic feet. What is the missing dimension? First base: 8
harkovskaia [24]
To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension.  In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.

V = Bh, where B is the area of the base.  In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.

286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>
21      21
h = 13.6

The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.

Please solve the following quadratic equation and show your work: x^2 -x =30
saveliy_v [14]
Rewriting the equation as a quadratic equation equal to zero:
     x^2 - x - 30 = 0
We need two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -30. In this case, it would have to be 5 and -6. Therefore we can also write our equation in the factored form
     (x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
Now we have a product of two expressions that is equal to zero, which means any x value that makes either (x + 5) or (x - 6) zero will make their product zero.
     x + 5 = 0  => x = -5
     x - 6 = 0  => x = 6
Therefore, our solutions are x = -5 and x = 6.
