Answer:
x=-8.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write an equation. Twice x (2x) plus 7 (+7) is the same as (=) negative ten (-10), or 2x+7=-10. To solve, first subtract 7 from both sides to get 2x=-17. Then, divide both sides by 2 (x=-8.5).
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution by substitution method
3x+5y=7
and 4x-y=5
Suppose,
3x+5y=7→(1)
and 4x-y=5→(2)
Taking equation (2), we have
4x-y=5
⇒y=4x-5→(3)
Putting y=4x-5 in equation (1), we get
3x+5y=7
⇒3x+5(4x-5)=7
⇒3x+20x-25=7
⇒23x-25=7
⇒23x=7+25
⇒23x=32
⇒x=32/23
→(4)
Now, Putting x=32/23
in equation (3), we get
y=4x-5
⇒y=4(32/23)-5
⇒y=(128-115)/23
⇒y=13/23
∴y=13/23 and x=32/23
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6x² - 2x + 36 = 5x² + 10x ( subtract 5x² + 10x from both sides )
x² - 12x + 36 = 0 ← in standard form
This is a perfect square of the form
(x - a)² = x² - 2ax + a²
36 = 6² ⇒ a = 6 and 2ax = (2 × 6)x = 12x, hence
(x - 6)² = 0
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
TIP:
74.90*.2=14.98
74.90+14.98=89.88
TOTAL:
89.88/5=17.98
each person pays $17.98
Hope this helps!
