Solve for x: 3x − 2 > 5x + 10. (5 points)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x < -6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2 > 5x + 10

first step is to isolate x

3x -2 >5x +10

3x > 5x + 10 + 2

3x -5x > 10 + 2

now that we have 3x and -5x we can combine them

-2x > 10 + 2

now add 10 +2 =12

-2x > 12 (now divide by -2)

x < -6 (when we divide we flip the inequality sign)

I need the steps and solution <br>-10x + 5y = 10 <br>x - 5y = -28​
natta225 [31]

−10x+5y=10

x−5y=−28

Rewrite equations:

x−5y=−28

−10x+5y=10

Step: Solve:

x−5y=−28

x−5y+5y=−28+5y(Add 5y to both sides)

x=5y−28

Step: Substitute:

−10x+5y=10

−10(5y−28)+5y=10

−45y+280=10(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−45y+280+−280=10+−280(Add -280 to both sides)

−45y=−270

−45y

−45

=

−270

−45

(Divide both sides by -45)

y=6

Step: Substitute:

x=5y−28

x=(5)(6)−28

x=2(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=2 and y=6

Morgan started the year with $615 in the bank and is saving $25 per week Kendall started with $975 and is spending $15 per week
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can represent Morgan's scenario with the expression, 25w + 615, and you can represent Kendall's scenario with the expression, 15w + 975.  To find out when they both have the same amount of money in their accounts, you set them equal to each other and solve for w:

25w + 615 = 15w + 975

25w = 15w + 360

10w = 360

w = 36

Morgan and Kendall will have the same amount of money after 36 weeks.

Which congruence theorems can be used to prove △EFG ≅ △JHG? Check all that apply.
sasho [114]

Answer:

ASA  and AAS

Step-by-step explanation:

We do not know if these are right triangles; therefore we cannot use HL to prove congruence.

We do not have 2 or 3 sides marked congruent; therefore we cannot use SSS or SAS to prove congruence.

We are given that EF is parallel to HJ.  This makes EJ a transversal.  This also means that ∠HJG and ∠GEF are alternate interior angles and are therefore congruent.  We also know that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent.  This gives us two angles and a non-included side, which is the AAS congruence theorem.

Since EF and HJ are parallel and EJ is a transversal, ∠JHG and ∠EFG are alternate interior angles and are congruent.  Again we have that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent; this gives us two angles and an included side, which is the ASA congruence theorem.

A carton of paper is priced at 27.00 now if the paper goes on sale for 25% off the current price what will be the sale price of
hjlf

Okay, to solve this we simply find 75% of the carton of paper, because 100%-25% = 75%

0.75(27) = 20.25

The carton of paper costs $20.25
