Find the value for x that makes the given equation true. - -4(3x – 7) + 5x = -2x + 8​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Okay this might be slightly confusing but I'll try to make it simple. x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 ( 3x - 7 ) + 5x = -2x + 8 1. get rid of parenthesis first. -4 times 3x = -12x and -4 times -7 is 28

-12x + 28 + 5x = -2x + 8 2. Combine any like terms on each side of the equation. -7x + 28 = -2x + 8 3. Get rid of the smallest x value by adding to both sides -7x

+7x +7x

28 = -2x + 8 4. subtract 8 from both sides to get rid of it. (you wanna get x alone)

-8 -8

20 = -2x 5. Divide both sides by -2 to get 1x (which is x)

/-2 /-2

x = -10

Factor 125q^6 − r^6s^3.

Answers

Answer:

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) (25 q^4 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + r^4 s^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

125 q^6 - r^6 s^3

Hint: | Express 125 q^6 - r^6 s^3 as a difference of cubes.

125 q^6 - r^6 s^3 = (5 q^2)^3 - (r^2 s)^3:

(5 q^2)^3 - (r^2 s)^3

Hint: | Factor the difference of two cubes.

Factor the difference of two cubes. (5 q^2)^3 - (r^2 s)^3 = (5 q^2 - r^2 s) ((5 q^2)^2 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + (r^2 s)^2):

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) ((5 q^2)^2 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + (r^2 s)^2)

Hint: | Distribute exponents over products in (5 q^2)^2.

Multiply each exponent in 5 q^2 by 2:

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) (5^2 q^(2×2) + 5 q^2 r^2 s + (r^2 s)^2)

Hint: | Multiply 2 and 2 together.

2×2 = 4:

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) (5^2 q^4 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + (r^2 s)^2)

Hint: | Evaluate 5^2.

5^2 = 25:

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) (25 q^4 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + (r^2 s)^2)

Hint: | Distribute exponents over products in (r^2 s)^2.

Multiply each exponent in r^2 s by 2:

(5 q^2 - r^2 s) (25 q^4 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + r^(2×2) s^2)

Hint: | Multiply 2 and 2 together.

2×2 = 4:

Answer: (5 q^2 - r^2 s) (25 q^4 + 5 q^2 r^2 s + r^4 s^2)

Sales tax is calculated as a percentage of the sales price. If sales tax is 7%, what is the sales tax on clothing that costs $150?

Answers

Answer:

$160.50

Step-by-step explanation:

You add the values to get $160.50

10.5 is  the sales tax on clothing that costs $150

What is Percentage?

percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given that Sales tax is calculated as a percentage of the sales price.

sales tax is 7%

We need to find the the sales tax on clothing that costs $150

Convert 7% to the decimal value by dividing with 100.

7/100=0.07

Now multiply 0.07 with 150

0.07×150

Zero point zero seven times of one hundred and fifty.

10.5

Hence, 10.5 is  the sales tax on clothing that costs $150

4x^2 -20x +25≥0​

Answers

Answer:

x ≥ [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

     4x² -20x + 25≥0​

To solve for x, we simply factorize the equation;

We should find two numbers whose sum = -20 and product is 100

  These two numbers are -10 and -10

So;

    4x² - 10x - 10x + 25 ≥ 0​

   factorize;

    2x(2x - 5) - 5(2x - 5) ≥ 0​

   (2x - 5) (2x - 5) ≥ 0​

    So;

        2x - 5 ≥ 0​

         2x ≥ 5

            x ≥ [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (3,5) and is perpendicular to the line y=3.
x=3
y=5
x=2
y=3

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A line perpendicular to it must therefore be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (3, 5) with x- coordinate 3 , thus

x = 3 ← equation of perpendicular line

A triangle has sides with lengths of 7 millimeters, 8 millimeters, and 10 millimeters. Is it a
right triangle?

Answers

Answer:

Depends if you are averaging C or not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve this.

c = √a^2 + b^2

A and B should be two of your sides and C should equal your third side. If C is incorrect, it is not a right triangle. I plugged in 7 for A and 8 for B. The answer was about 10.63. If you are supposed to round C then yes, it is a right triangle. If you aren't supposed to round C (probably not) then no, It isn't a right triangle.
