So the problem has no symbols, but we're going to multiply because the fraction on the left is right next to the parentheses.
-5/2 * 1/10x = -5x/20
I put "x" next to the 5 because the "x" counts as part of the numerator. Now that it's 5x over 20 that equals one, I'd first reduce -5x/20 into -x/4, then do
-x/4 * -4 = 1 * -4
To make the "x" side equal one, we have to multiply both sides by -4, to make both sides equal.
x = -4.
Answer:
positive
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variables tend to increase and decrease together, the association is positive.
hope this helps :)
Answer:The slope is defined as the ratio of the vertical change between two points, the rise, to the horizontal change between the same two points, the run. The slope of a line is usually represented by the letter m. (x1, y1) represents the first point whereas (x2, y2) represents the second point.
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
BC/DC = EC/AC , substitute values
3x×5/32 - 5x-5/56 ( cross- multiply )
56(3x - 5) = 32(5x - 5) ← distribute and simplify both sides
168x - 280 = 160x - 160 ( subtract 160x from both sides )
8x - 280 = - 160 ( add 280 to both sides )
8x = 120 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 15
The answer would be 135 (B)
