Solve the equation 17=5k-3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katen [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

17 = 5k + -3

Reorder the terms:

17 = -3 + 5k

Solving

17 = -3 + 5k

Solving for variable 'k'.

Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5k' to each side of the equation.

17 + -5k = -3 + 5k + -5k

Combine like terms: 5k + -5k = 0

17 + -5k = -3 + 0

17 + -5k = -3

Add '-17' to each side of the equation.

17 + -17 + -5k = -3 + -17

Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0

0 + -5k = -3 + -17

-5k = -3 + -17

Combine like terms: -3 + -17 = -20

-5k = -20

Divide each side by '-5'.

k = 4

Simplifying

k = 4

An integer greater than -2
goblinko [34]
On the number line below, there are arrows pointing to the left and to the right. The arrow that is pointing to the left has numbers below them; those numbers are negative numbers, including -2. 0 is mutual, meaning that it is a positive and a negative number. The numbers to the right are positive numbers. Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers, therefore, any number after 0 is greater that is greater than -2.

sashaice [31]
Answer: 1/24
Explanation: The probability of spinning a 3 is 1/4, or 1 out of how many numbers are on the spinner. The probability of rolling a 4 is 1/6 because there is only one 4 on a 6-sided number cube. (1/4)x(1/6) = 1/24

the table shows the number of yards a football player runs in each quater of a game find the mean number of yards the player run
zalisa [80]

We know the number of yards run per quarter:

  • Quarter 1: -2 yards
  • Quarter 2: 14 yards
  • Quarter 3: -18 yards
  • Quarter 4: -6 yards

\text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{\text{Sum of yards run across quarters}}{\text{Total number of quarters}}

Sum of yards run across quarters = (-2) + 14 + (-18) + (-6) = -12

Total number of quarters = 4

⇒ \text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{\text{Sum of yards run across quarters}}{\text{Total number of quarters}}

⇒ \text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{-12}{4} = -3

Hence, he ran -3 yards per quarter
