Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

3 - 2x = -1.5x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Add 2x on both sides:                    3 = 0.5x
  2. Divide 0.5 on both sides:               6 = x
  3. Rewrite:                                           x = 6

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in<em> x</em>:                    3 - 2(6) = -1.5(6)
  2. Multiply:                               3 - 12 = -9
  3. Subtract:                              -9 = -9

Here we see that -9 does indeed equal -9.

∴ x = 6 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3-2x= -1.5x

-3       -3

-2x= -1.5x - 3

+1.5x   +1.5x

-.5x= -3

divide both sides by -.5

<u>x = 6</u>

Explain how you can find 4 times 754 using two different methods.
ludmilkaskok [199]
Method 1:

4(754)

=4(700+50+4)

=2800 + 200 + 16

=3000+16

=3016

-----------------

Method 2:

4(754)

=4(250+250+250+4)

=1000+1000+1000+16

=3016

Answer:

a) F

b) B, E, D

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The segment with the greatest gradient has the largest change in y-values per unit change in x-values

From the given option, the rate of change of the <em>y </em>to the<em> </em>x-values of B = the gradient = (4 units)/(2 units) = 2

The gradient of F = (-3units)/(1 unit) = -3

The gradient of A = 4/4 = 1

The gradient of C = -2/5

The gradient of D = 2/6 = 1/3

The gradient of E = 3/4

The segment with the greatest gradient is F

b) The steepest segment has the higher gradient

From their calculated we have;

The gradient of segment B = 2 therefore, B is steeper than E that has a gradient of 3/4, and E is steeper than D, as the gradient of D = 1/3

Therefore, we have;

B, E, D.
