Alja [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

=−5.75x−17.4

Step-by-step explanation:

=−0.25x−8+−1(5.5x+9.4)

=−0.25x+−8+−1(5.5x)+(−1)(9.4)

=−0.25x+−8+−5.5x+−9.4

another way >>>><<<<

=−0.25x+−8+−5.5x+−9.4

=(−0.25x+−5.5x)+(−8+−9.4)

=−5.75x+−17.4

Answer:

=−5.75x−17.4

A triangle with an area of 60 square inches has a height that is 16 less than 6 times its base.
PtichkaEL [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a triangle

baseline × height / 2

in our case

baseline × height / 2 = 60 in²

height = 6×baseline - 16

baseline × (6×baseline - 16) / 2 = 60

baseline × (3×baseline - 8) = 60

3×baseline² - 8×baseline = 60

baseline = x

3x² - 8x - 60 = 0

general solution to a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 3

b = -8

c = -60

x = (8 ± sqrt(64 - 4×3×-60))/(2×3) =

= (8 ± sqrt(64 + 720))/6 = (8 ± sqrt(784))/6 =

= (8 ± 28)/6

x1 = (8 + 28)/6 = 36/6 = 6

x2 = (8 - 28)/6 = -20/6 = -10/3

x2 as a negative number is not a valid solution for a length in a geometric shape.

so, x = 6 in is our solution for the baseline.

height = 6x - 16 = 6×6 - 16 = 36 - 16 = 20 in

base = 6 in

Simplify 4(6x + 4) – 5(3x – 6) completely<br> What’s the answer
Verdich [7]
4(6x+4)-5(3x-6) First you distribute 24x+16-15x+30 then you add like terms so 24x-15x is 9x. 16+30 is 46. So the answer is 9x+46

Suppose a calculator is on sale at a 15% discount if it normally sells for 2999 what is the sale price
Greeley [361]
You would turn 15% into a decimal. Which would be .15, and then do .15 times $29.99 which is $29.84. Then you would subtract the $29.99 minus the  $29.84
