Answer: x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use inverse operations to solve the equation. Because the term "-5x" is multiplication (because you are multiplying x by -5), we can use division to solve the equation.

First, we will divide -5 from 25.

25 ÷ -5 = -5.

Because of this, x = -5!

If we're not sure, we can also check the equation.

-5 x -5 = 25, so the answer is true.

In conclusion, x = -5!

A ladder is leaning against a building.The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 6ft shorter than the length
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

15 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the illustration for the problem is a right triangle with:

hypotenuse (C)= the length of the ladder = L

horizontal side(A) = distance from bottom of the ladder to the building = L - 6

vertical side(B) = distance from the top of the ladder to the bottom of the building = L - 3

So, we can use Pythagoras formula:

A2 +B2= C2

(L – 6 )² + (L-3)² = L²

L²-12L+36+L²-6L+9 =L²

L2 -18L+45 =0

APPLYING QUADRATIC FORMULA WE OBTAIN:

L =15 OR L=3

If L=3

Vertical side = L-3 = 0 (Length can´t be 0)

So L=15

A company dyes two sizes of rugs. A small rug requires 8 hours for dyeing and a medium-size rug requires 12 hours for dyeing. Th
Katyanochek1 [597]
Let x=small rugs and y=medium rugs. It takes 8 hours to dye a small rug, so you would write 8x. It takes 12 hours to dye a small rug, so you would write 12y. Those two would need to be added together. The dyer needs to dye at least 22 rugs in 240 hours, so you would need a less than or = to sign.
I'm not sure which choice has the line beneath, indicating that the sign is a "less than or equal to" sign, but the answer is gonna be either C or D.
8x+12y≤240, or 12y+8x<span>≤240</span>

<h3>\frac{2x}{x + 2}  -  \frac{x}{ - 1}  = 1</h3>

<h3>⇢ \frac{2x}{x + 2}  = 1 +  \frac{x}{x - 1}</h3>

<h3>⇢ \frac{2x}{x + 2}  =  \frac{(x - 1) + x}{ - 1}</h3>

<h3>⇢\frac{2x}{x + 2}  =  \frac{2x - 1}{x - 1}</h3>

By, Cross multiplying, we get

⇢2x(x - 1) = (2x - 1)(x + 2)

⇢2 {x}^{2}  - 2x = 2x(x + 2) - 1( x+ 2)

⇢2 {x}^{2}  - 2x = 2 {x}^{2}   + 4x - x - 2

Here, 2 {x}^{2} from both sides will get cancelled

⇢- 2x  = 3x - 2

⇢ - 2x - 3x =  - 2

⇢- 5x =  - 2

⇢x =   \frac{ - 2}{ - 5}

⇢ \underline { \boxed{ x =  \frac{2}{5} }}
