Answer:

x= -2/5 or -0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

an acronym that i use that helps me is D.C.M.S. ( distribute, combine like terms, move variable, solve) so first you want to distribute, but since there is no need for distribution in this problem, we can skip that, as well as combining like terms. so then, we have to move the variable. i moved the 3x by subtracting it on both sides. so now we have 5x+4=2. then you just solve from there; subtract 4: 5x= -2; divide by 5. hope this helps :)

Using the slope formula for the points (1,5) and (2,-2), what would the denominator be?
suter [353]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2).

In this question we have two points: (1,5) and (2,-2).

x1 = 1

y1 = 5

x2 = 2

y2 = -2

then, plug in these numbers into the slope formula

(5-(-2))/(1-2) = 7 / -1 = -7

In gym class, sue is shooting basketball free throws. she is shooting three sets of twenty shots each. in her first two attempts
lions [1.4K]

In order to achieve an average of 12 successful shots she has to score 36 times in total. So, she has to score 5 times in the 3rd set. 
13 + 18 + 5 = 36

In order to achieve an average of 16 successful shots she has to score 48 times in total. So, she has to score 17 times in the 3rd set. 
13 + 18 + 17 = 48

Express your answer in the form of a compound inequality using the variable F to represent a successful basketball free throw:
5 <= F <= 17

Please help me with this and can you show me how to do it??

Answer:

8 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ΔEFG ~ ΔABC, they are proportionately related. Each of the corresponding sides differ by the scale factor, which shows how much bigger or smaller the new triangle is from the original triangle.

Purple = original triangle, triangle 1

Pink = new triangle, triangle 2

Find the scale factor, "k". It will be a fraction because the triangle gets smaller.

k = FG/BC = 2/3

The scale factor can be used to find a side, the height or the area of the new triangle.

Use the scale factor squared to find the area.

A₂ = (A₁)(k²)

= (18 ft²)(2/3)²

= 7.999...ft²

= 8 ft²

10 POINTS!! PLEASE HELP
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Option 2: 2x + 2 = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

First odd: x

Next odd: x + 2

x + (x + 2) = 72

2x + 2 = 72

Because the difference between two consecutive odd numbers is 2.

e.g 3 and 5

What is the equation of the line shown below?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

y= 1x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y=mx + b

(-4,-5) (5,4)

m= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (4+5)/(5+4)=1

4=1(5)+b

4=5 + b    4-5=b    b= -1

y= 1x - 1
