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.

Answer:

  20 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for the area of a rectangle, fill in the given information and solve for the unknown.

  A = LW . . . . . . . . area is length × width

  80 m² = L·(4 m)

  (80 m²)/(4 m) = L = 20 m . . . . . . . divide by 4m (the coefficient of L)

The tarp is 20 meters long.

A sociologist develops a test to measure attitudes towards public transportation, and 27 randomly selected subjects are given th
taurus [48]

Answer:

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 27 - 1 = 26

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.0518

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

In this question:

n = 27, s = 21.4. So

M = 2.0518\frac{21.4}{\sqrt{27}}

M = 8.45

The margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the mean score of all such subjects is of 8.45.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Move downward by 7 units

Move leftward by 6 units

(x,y) \to (x -6,y-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for grid

Required

The transformation from the current location to the new location

To do this, we pick two corresponding points on the current location and the new location.

We have:

A = (3,2) -- Current location

A' = (-6,-5) -- New location

First, move A downwards by 7 units.

The rule to this is:

(x,y) \to (x,y-7)

So, we have:

(3,2) \to (3,2-7)

(3,2) \to (3,-5)

Next, move the above points leftward by 6 units.

The rule to this is:

(x,y) \to (x-6,y)

So, we have:

(3,-5) \to (3-6,-5)

(3,-5) \to (-3,-5)
