$\sf \large↪2(x - 10) = 59$

$\: \:$

$\sf \large \: ↪2x - 20 = 59$

$\: \:$

$\sf \large \: ↪2x = 59 + 20$

$\: \:$

$\sf \large \: ↪2x = 79$

Answer:

39.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Open the bracket by multiplying the numbers in the bracket by 2

2x-20=59

collect like terms(-20 crossing over the equal sign will become +20

2x=59+20

2x=79

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{79}{2}$

x=39.5

Does anyone know this? Also, can you explain how you get the answer? cuz I have 10 other questions same as this.

The answer is 36

Multiply each side by 9

9 times for and 9 times n/9

The n/9 will cancel out so you are left with n= 9 times 4

This comes to 36

you have 120 pieces of fabric to make a blanket. each piece of fabric is a square with a side length of 6 inches. you use as man

To make a square blanket, you need to calculate the squareroot of 120, which is 10,954... so the biggest number is 10x10 peaces of fabric you can use to create a square blanket. These are 100 (so 20 are left over). To create a bigger square blanket of 11×11 peaces (11^2 = 121) you need one more peace of fabric. One peace is six inches, the blanket is 10 peaces long (6×10=60) The size would be 60inchesx60inches= 3.600 inches.

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that $v_1,v_2,..,v_4$ are in $R^4$ and $v_1,v_2,v_3$ is linearly dependent then {v_1,v_2,v_3,v_4}[/tex] is also linearly dependent.

We have to find that given statement is true or false.

Dependent vectors:Dependent vectors are those vectors in which atleast one vector is a linear combination of other given vectors.

Or If we have vectors $x_1,x_2,....x_n$

Then their linear combination

$a_1x_1+a_2x_2+.....+a_nx_n=0$

There exist at least one scalar which is not zero.

If $v_1,v_2,v_3$ are dependent vectors then

$a_1v_1+a_2v_2+a_3v_3=0$ for scalars $a_1,a_2,a_3$

Then , by definition of dependent vectors

There exist a vector which is not equal to zero

If vector $v_3$ is a linear combination of $v_1\;and \;v_2$ , So at least one of vectors in the set is a linear combination of others and the set is linearly dependent.
