Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6 - 9x = 5x - 9x + 16

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 6 - 9x = -4x + 16
Add 9x on both sides: 6 = 5x + 16
Subtract 16 on both sides: -10 = 5x
Divide 5 on both sides: -2 = x
Rewrite: x = -2

Answer:

$x=-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ are\ given,\\6-9x=5x-9x+16\\6-9x=-4x+16\ [Resolving\ like\ terms\ in\ RHS]\\-9x+4x=16-6[Transposing\ variables\ to\ LHS\ and\ constants\ to\ RHS]\\-5x=10[Simplifying]\\x=\frac{10}{-5}[Dividing]\\x=-2 [Finding\ the\ value\ of\ x]$

Cot y, if csc y =-10/3 and cos y< 0

fredd [130]

$\csc y=-\dfrac{10}3\implies\sin y=-\dfrac3{10}$

$\cos^2y=1-\sin^2y\implies \cos y=\pm\sqrt{1-\dfrac9{100}}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{91}}{10}$

You're told that $\cos y$ , so omit the positive root.

$\cot y=\dfrac{\cos y}{\sin y}=\dfrac{-\frac{\sqrt{91}}{10}}{-\frac3{10}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{91}}3$

At a restaurant, you order an appetizer for $5.25, a meal for $12.75, and a drink for $2.99. If the sales tax is 9%, what is the

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

$22.88

Step-by-step explanation:

The total bill is the subtotal plus tax. The tax is computed by multiplying the tax rate by the subtotal, which is the total of all items being billed.

subtotal = $5.25 +12.75 +2.99 = 20.99

tax = $20.99 × 0.09 = $1.89

The total bill is ...

subtotal + tax = $20.99 +1.89 = $22.88
