Solve -2(5x – 3) = 41. need help

Mathematics

navik [9.2K]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5x - 3) = 41

Distribute the -2 inside the parenthesis.

-10x + 6 = 41

Subtract 6 from both sides.

-10x = 35

Divide both sides by -10.

x = 35/-10

Simplify the fraction.

x = -7/2.

Proof:

-2(5x - 3) = 41

Substitute variable.

-2(5(-7/2) - 3) = 41

Multiply 5 and -7/2.

-2(-35/2 - 3) = 41

Turn 3 into a fraction with denominator 2.

-2(-35/2 - 6/2) = 41

Subtract 6/2 from -35/2.

-2(-41/2) = 41

Multiply -2 and -41/2.

41 = 41.

(Please help) Which answer describes the polynomial?
lbvjy [14]
\bf 3x^3+4x^2-7\quad 
\begin{cases}
3x^3\impliedby &3rd~degree\\
4x^2\impliedby &2nd~degree\\
7\impliedby &0~degree
\end{cases}

notice, there are three terms, therefore is a trinomial.

the term that has the highest degree, has a degree of 3, therefore the degree of the polynomial as a whole is 3, or a cubic degree.

so, is a cubic trinomial.

A cable for a power transformer forms
posledela

Answer:

32 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, the side opposite the 60° angle is 28 feet.

We are looking for the approximate length of the cable.

The approximate length of the cable is the hypotenuse of the triangle shown.

Recall the sine ratio from SOH-CAH-TOA

Which means Sine of the angle is Opposite/Hypotenuse

Let the hypotenuse be h, then we have:

\sin(60) =  \frac{28}{h}

0.866 =  \frac{28}{h}

h =  \frac{28}{0.866}

h = 32.33

The length of the cable is approximately 32 feet

2y-4x=-12 what is the slope intercept
SpyIntel [72]
So you have yo turn it into the correct form first so you add 4x to both sides and come out with 2y=4x-12 them you divide each side by 2 because you have to have to by itself and you come out with y=2x-6 so the slope is 2x and the y intercept is -6
