What is the answer to -2x+2(5x+18)=-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
adell [148]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+2(5x+18)=-4

The first thing you would have to do is distribute the positive 2 with 5x and 18 so that means you would multiply those two number inside the parenthesis.

-2x+ 10x+ 36=-4              2(5x)=10x     2(18)=36

Now you combined like terms on the other side of the -4. So since -2x and 10x are like terms because of the variables you would do -2x+10x=8x. So now your equation is 8x+36=-4. So now you want you x by itself so you would subtract 36 on both sides so positive 36 subtracted by 36 is 0 now you subtract 36 to -4 so that equals -40 because you did -4-36=-40. So now you have 8x=-40 so now you divide both sides by 8x so -40/8=-5

x=-5

What is the measure of ? Four-sided figure divided into four triangles. Triangle on top has angles labeled two, forty-one degree
Triss [41]
The missing angles are the one with labels 1, 2, 3, 4.
180 = 43 + 69 + X
180 = 112 + X
X = 68 (1)

180 = 112 + 41 + Y
180 = 153 + Y
Y = 27 (2)

180 = 44 + 66 + Z
180 = 110 + Z
Z = 70 (3)

180 = 109 + 29 + Z
180 = 138 + Z
Z = 42 (4)

1.x-7=20<br><br>2.3x+6=12x-21​
dusya [7]

Answer:

1. x=27

2. x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>the first one </h3>

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x−7=20

Step 1: Add 7 to both sides.

x−7+7=20+7

<h3>the second one </h3>

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x+6=12x−21

Step 1: Subtract 12x from both sides.

3x+6−12x=12x−21−12x

−9x+6=−21

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−9x+6−6=−21−6

−9x=−27

Step 3: Divide both sides by -9.

−9x/−9=−27/−9

1. How many ways are there to make an octagon with 19 different sticks when order DOESN’T matter?
Phantasy [73]

Answer: 1. 75582 2. 3047466240

Step-by-step explanation: 1.  If order does not matter, this is a combination problem.  You are choosing 8 sticks from a set of 19. (Octagons have 8 sides.) The formula for combinations of n things chosen r at a time "n choose r" is

2. If order matters, there are more possibilities. This is a permutation problem.  The number of permutations of 19 things taken 8 at a time, "19 permute 8" is Y

The probability that an individual has​ 20-20 vision is 0.19 0.19. in a class of 70 70 ​students, what is the mean and standard
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Formula to find mean and standard deviation is,

Means = np and standard deviation =\sqrt{n p (1-p)}.

Where n= sample size, p = probability.

According to the given problem, the probability that an individual has​ 20 vision is 0.19 in a class of 70 ​students. So,

p = 0.19 and n = 70.

Hence, the first step is to plug in these values in the above formula to get mean and standard deviation. Therefore,

Mean = np

= 70* 0.19

= 13.3

= 13.300 (Rounded to nearest thousandth.

Standard deviation = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

=\sqrt{70*0.19*(1-0.19)}

=\sqrt{13.3*0.81}

=√10.773

=3.282224855

= 3.282 (Rounded to nearest thousandth).
