First Method (Distributive Property)

(2m - 5m) (-5)

Rearrange the equation to make it easier.

(-5) (2m - 5m)

In distributive property, it's all about multiplying. The -5 goes to the 2m and the 5m. Like this: (-5 • 2m) - (-5 • 5m).

-10m + 25m

15m

Second Method

(2m - 5m) (-5)

Since 2m and 5m have the same variable, we can subtract them.

(-3m) (-5)

Multiply.

15m

15m is your answer. I hope this helps!

ANSWER

The correct answer is A

{ $x|-5$ }

EXPLANATION

$|x|$

This implies that

$x$

We solve the compound inequality to obtain,

$x-5$

Remember that, dividing through by negative 1 reverses the inequality sign

The solution set is

{ $x|-5$ }

If your cell phone bill was 67 Point $82 and there is a 7.5% late fee how much will your bill be with the late fee included

Ivenika [448]

$\frac{7.5}{100} = \frac{x}{82} \\ x = \frac{82 \times 7.5}{100} = \frac{615}{100 } = 6.15$
$82 + 6.15 = 88.15$
the answer is $88.15

1. What is the measure in radians for the central angle of a circle whose radius is 6 cm and intercept arc length is 5.4 cm?

fgiga [73]

Hello!

1.
find circumferece
c=2pir
c=2*6*pi=12pi
intercept is 5.4

2pi radians=all

part/whole=part/whole
5.4/12pi=x/2pi
times both sides by 12pi
5.4=6x
divide both sides by 6
0.9=x
answer is 0.9 radians

2.
assuming 9pi/5 radians

find circumference
c=2pir
c=2*26.9*pi
c=53.8pi

arc/circumference=(9pi/5)/2pi

x/(53.8pi)=(9pi/5)/(2pi)
x/(53.8pi)=18/5
times both sides by 53.8pi
x=608.46266 m
about x=608.46 m

Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
