HELP ME PLEASE Solve for x: -6 – 5x = 29

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lynna [10]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (&Roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions

~

First, add 6 to both sides of the equation:

-5x - 6 = 29

-5x - 6  (+6) = 29 (+6)

-5x = 29 + 6

-5x = 35

Next, divide -5 from both sides of the equation:
(-5x)/-5 = (35)/-5

x = 35/-5

x = -7

-7 is your answer for x.

Hi right now im doing homework about common denominators and for some reason I cant understand how to do it
goldenfox [79]
It would be great if you added some more details, but for common denominators you try to find the least common number that the 2 or more of the numbers you got have!
For example:
1/2 and 2/3 if you multiply 2 by 3 and 3 by 2, they both are 6, so you would multiply 1/2 both by 3 to make it into 3/6 and 2/3 by 2 to make it into 4/6!

How long will it take a $800 investment to be worth $900 if it is continuously compounded at 11% per year?
Kruka [31]
The formula is
A=p e^rt
A future value 900
P present value 800
E constant
R interest rate 0.11
T time?

We need to solve for t
T=[log (A/p)÷log (e)]÷r
T=(log(900÷800)÷log(e))÷0.11
T=1.07 years round your answer to get 1 year
