Answer:

  (x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation resolves to two:

  2x -5 = 4

  2x = 9 . . . . . . add 5

  x = 9/2 = 4.5 . . . . divide by 2

and ...

  2x -5 = -4

  2x = 1 . . . . . . add 5

  x = 1/2 = 0.5 . . . . divide by 2

Then the solution set is ...

  (x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5} . . . . . . matches the first choice

What two numbers multiply to 30 and add to -17
victus00 [196]

Answer:

-15 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a negative times a negative equals a positive, but when added, still stays a negative, the factors must both be negative.

Negative Factors of 30:

-30 + -1 = -31

-15 + -2 = -17

-10 + -3 = -13

-6 + -5 = -11

The two factors of 30 that add up to -17 are -15 and -2.

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Wich equation gives the number of 1/3 inches that are in 5/6 inches
lara31 [8.8K]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

(1/3) x = (5/6)


Discussion:

I think you are asking for this equation:

(1/3) x = (5/6) =>            multiply both sides by 3

(1/3) 3 x = (5/6) 3 =>      as (1/3) *3 = 1

x = 5*3/6

x= 15/6

x = 5/2 = 2.5

Thank you,

MrB
