Hey there!

2(p + 1) + 8(p - 1) = 5p

2(p) + 2(1) + 8(p) + 8(-1) = 5p

2p + 2 + 8p - 8 = 5p

10p - 6 = 5p

SUBTRACT 5p to BOTH SIDES

10p - 6 - 5p = 5p - 5p

SIMPLIFY IT!

5p - 6 = 0

ADD 6 to BOTH SIDES

5p - 6 + 6 = 0 + 6

CANCEL out: -6 + 6 because it gives you 0

KEEP: 0 + 6 because it helps solve for the p-value

5p = 0 + 6

5p = 6

DIVIDE 5 to BOTH SIDES

5p/5 = 6/5

CANCEL out: 5/5 because it gives you 1

KEEP: 6/5 because gives you the result of the p-value

SIMPLIFY IT!

p = 6/5

Therefore, your answer is: p = 6/5

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST A frequency table of grades has five classes (A, B, C, D, F) with frequencies of 4,11 ,15 ,

ra1l [238]

Answer:

A = 10.5%

B = 28.9%

C = 39.5%

D = 18.4%

F = 2.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Add all the frequencies together = 38

4/38 × 100 = 10.5%
11/38 × 100 = 28.9%
15/38 × 100 = 39.5%
7/38 × 100 = 18.4%
1/38 × 100 = 2.6%

10.5 + 28.9 + 39.5 + 18.4 + 2.6 = 100%

Solve 2x^3+7x^2-2x-1=o

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

$x=\sqrt{3}-2\\x=-\sqrt{3}-2\\x=\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hard one

We have to use the rational root theorem

$2x^3+7x^2-2x-1$ = 0

We have to find all the factors of a and d and put them in a fraction

$a=2\\d=-1\\\frac{1}{1,2}$

We then plug them into the equation to see if any of them work

The equation isn't true when plugging 1, but is true when plugging in 1/2

factored form of 1/2 is (2x-1)

Then we divide the original equation by (2x-1) (you can use synthetic division or long division, it would be hard to type out the process for that) to get $x^2+4x+1$

So now the equation is $(2x-1)(x^2+4x+1)$

Solve the second half of this equation using the quadratic formula to get

$\sqrt{3}-2$ and $-\sqrt{3}-2$

We already know the solution for the first half of the equation (1/2)

So the final answers are:

$x=\sqrt{3}-2, -\sqrt{3}-2, \frac{1}{2}$

X) = 5x^3 -2x and g(x) =3x^3. Find f(x) + g(x) & state the domain!

expeople1 [14]

To add two functions, combine like terms. (5+3x^(3)) = 8x^3-2x. The domain is all real numbers. There is no bound on how small or large the numbers can be for cubed functions.

Find the sum. 2/5 + 1/2

dybincka [34]

2/5 + 1/2

4+5 / 10 • look for the LCD of 5 and 2
which is 10 then 5 goes 2
times into 10 the multiply by 2
= 4. Then 2 goes 5 times into
10 then multiply by 1 = 5.

Therefore the sum of 2/5 + 1/2 =9/10

Alex is trying to run a certain number of miles by the end of the month Alex is 40% of the way to achieving her goal and she alr

docker41 [41]

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Alex has some target to run a certain number of miles by the end of the month.

Goal already achieved = 40% of the total goal

Number of miles already run by Alex = 12 miles

To find:

Number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of month?

Solution:

We have to find nothing but the goal of Alex here.

Let the number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of the month = $x$ miles

As per question statement:

40% of total number of miles to be run = 12 miles

$\dfrac{40}{100}\times x = 12\\\Rightarrow 40x=12\times 100\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{1200}{40}\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 30\ miles}$

Total number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of the month = <em>30 miles</em>
