Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x -10 = 10

First thing to do when solving one-variable linear equations is to get the variable by itself. We can do this by adding 10 to both sides:

-5x = 20

Now that we have -5x on one side of the equation we can divide the equation by -5 to get x:

x = -4

Answer:

$- 5x - 10 = 10 \\ - 5x = 10 + 10 \\ - 5x = 20 \\ x = - \frac{20}{4} \\ x = - 5$

Helppppp please very important

VMariaS [17]

The curves cross at coordinates (x, y) = (1, 4). The x-value is said to represent the increase in temperature, while the y-value is said to represent the numbers of visitors and those and who leave early.

The "solution" is the temperature change at which the number of visitors is equal to the number who leave early.

Henry is making a corn grits recipe that calls for 1/4 cup of corn grits for every 1/2 cup of water. How much water will he need

Archy [21]

Method 1:

$\begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{cup of corn}&-&\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{cup of water}\\\\1\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}\ \text{cup of corn}&-&x\ \text{cup of water}\end{array}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot x=\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}x=\dfrac{3}{4}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\\boxed{x=3}$

<h3>Answer: Henry will need 3 cups of water.</h3>

Method 2:

$\begin{matrix}\dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{cup of corn}&-&\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{cup of water}&|\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{cup of corn}&-&1\ \text{cup of water}&|\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\1\ \text{cup of corn}&-&2\ \text{cup of water}&|\end{matrix}$

$\begin{matrix}\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+1\right)\ \text{cups of corn}&-&(1+2)\ \text{cups of water}\\\\1\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{cups of corn}&-&3\ \text{cups of water}\end{matrix}$

<h3>Answer: Henry will need 3 cups of water.</h3>
