Answer:

x = 12.5 or 25/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 4

60 - 4x =10

Subtarct 60 from each side

-4x = -50

divide -50 by -4

x = 12.5 or 25/2

Which points are on the perpendicular bisector of the given segment? Check all that apply. Please explain how you got your answe
ser-zykov [4K]
First, you have to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of this given line. 
to do that, you need the slope of the perpendicular line and one point.
Step 1: find the slope of the given line segment. We have the two end points (10, 15) and (-20, 5), so the slope is m=(15-5)/(10-(-20))=1/3
the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, m=-3/1=-3 
step 2: find the middle point: x=(-20+10)/2=-5, y=(15+5)/2=10      (-5, 10)
so the equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form is (y-10)=-3(x+5)

now plug in all the given coordinates to the equation to see which pair fits:
(-8, 19): 19-10=9, -3(-8+5)=9, so yes, (-8, 19) is on the perpendicular line. 

try the other pairs, you will find that (1,-8) and (-5, 10) fit the equation too. (-5,10) happens to be the midpoint.

Each month, a shopkeeper spends 5x+11 dollars on rent and electricity. if he spends 2x-3 dollars on rent, how muck dose he spend
timofeeve [1]
Rent and electricity = 5x + 11
rent = 2x - 3

electricity = (5x + 11) - (2x - 3) 
electricity = 5x + 11 - 2x + 3
electricity = 3x + 14

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

\frac{c-3p}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

   1) 4(2a+p)=c+p+a

   2) Expand: 8a+4p=c+p+a

   3) subract a and 4p: 7a=c-3p

   4) Divide: a=\frac{c-3p}{7}

Suppose that in a senior college class of 500 students itis found that 210 smoke, 258 drink alcoholic beverages, 216 eatbetween
Katarina [22]

Answer:

a)Smoke but doesn't drink alcoholic beverages

P=0.176  or 17.6%

b)eats between meals and drinks alcoholic beverages but doesn't smoke

P=0.062  or 6.2%

c.) neither smokes nor eats between meals

P=0.342  or 34.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a Venn diagram with three circles, one for each bad health habit. Let us a for the students that only smoke, b for only drink alcoholic beverages, and c for only eat between meals. Following this logic, d represents smoke and drink alcoholic beverages but not eat between meals,  e drink alcoholic beverages and eat between meals but not smoke,f eat between meals and smoke but not drink alcoholic beverages. Finally g for having all the three, this means g=52.

To find f, subtract 52 (the three problems) from 97 because this last number represents all the students that smoke and eat between meals, including the students that have the three bad habits. The same goes for 'd' and 'e'.

f=97-52=45

e=83-52=31

d=122-52=70

To find a, subtract e, f, and g from the total of smokers. This is because e, f, and g represent smoke and at least another bad habit and a represents only smoking.

a=210-d-f-g=210-70-45-52=43

The same goes for b and c.

b=258-d-e-g=258-70-31-52=105

c=216-e-f.-g=216-31-45-52=88

Adding all letters and subtract from the total to see if there is any healthy student:

500-a+b+c+d+e+f+g =500-43+105+88+70+31+45+52=500- 434=66

a)Smoke but doesn't drink alcoholic beverages

This will be 'a' (only smokes) and 'f'  ( smokes and eats between meals but doesn't drink) divided by the total of students.

P=(43+45)/500=0.176

b)eats between meals and drinks alcoholic beverages but doesn't smoke

This probability is 'e' divided by the total of students.

P=31/500=0.062

c.) neither smokes nor eats between meals

This will be 'b' (only drinks) plus the healthy students (66) divided by the total of students.

P=(105+66)/500=0.342
