-2x-5=4 solve for x and please tell me how you got it

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -9/2  or -4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x-5=4

Add 5 to each side

-2x-5+5=4+5

-2x = 9

Divide each side by -2

-2x/-2 = 9/-2

x = -9/2  or -4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dave is 9 years older than his brother, so if his brother is 18, he is 27. If you doubled the brother's age (18) you would get 36. Then you subtract 36 by 9 and get 27. <3

An element with mass 570 grams decays by 18% per minute. How much of the element is remaining after 13 minutes, to the nearest 10th of a gram?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  43.2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential equation for the decay can be written as ...

  amount remaining = (initial amount)(1 -decay rate)^t

  = 570(1 -0.18)^t

We want to find the amount remaining after 13 minutes. Evaluating this equation for t=13, we have ...

  amount remaining = 570(0.82^13) ≈ 43.2 . . . grams

You have 37 coins that are nickels, dimes, and pennies. The total value of the coins is $1.55. There are twice as many pennies as dimes. Find the number of each type of coin in the bank.



Answer: Let n be the number of nickel


s, d be the number of dimes, and p be the number of pennies.

Answers

Answer:

n = number of nickels = 7

d = number of dimes = 10

p = number of pennies = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

n = number of nickels

d = number of dimes

p = number of pennies.

n + d + p = 37

0.05n + 0.10d + 0.01p = 1.55

p = 2d

Substitute p = 2d into the equation

n + d + 2d = 37

0.05n + 0.10d + 0.01(2d) = 1.55

n + 3d = 37

0.05n + 0.10d + 0.02d = 1.55

n + 3d = 37 (1)

0.05n + 0.12d = 1.55 (2)

Multiply (1) by 0.05

0.05n + 0.15d = 1.85

0.05n + 0.12p = 1.55

Subtract

0.15d - 0.12d = 1.85 - 1.55

0.03d = 0.3

d = 0.3/0.03

= 10

d = 10

p = 2d

= 2(10)

p = 20

n + d + p = 37

n + 10 + 20 = 37

n + 30 = 37

n = 37 - 30

n = 7

n = number of nickels = 7

d = number of dimes = 10

p = number of pennies = 20

If you study an extra 10 hours a week for a year (52 weeks) and you earn a four-year scholarship valued at $50,000, what is your hourly return on your investment in study time?

Answers

Answer:

 $96.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

total number of weeks =52 weeks

study time per week is = 10 hours

total study time for the year = 52*10

=520 hours per year.

Step two:

given that the value of the scholarship for one year is $50,000.

we want to find the amount that an hour of study brings

so we have to divide the total scholarship by the amount of study time

50000/520

=$96.15

your hourly return on your investment in study time is $96.15

what is the slope of the line, (-6, -8) and (2, 8)?

Answers

Answer:

Your slope would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you would need to use the formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

In this case, the equation would be 8-(-8)/2-(-6)

8 - (-8) = 16

2 - (-6) = 8

16/8 = 2

ayúdenme porfavor​

Answers

Answer: a) 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Buscando en google, encuentro que la expresión es:

C(x) = 9*x^2 - 80*x - 100

Queremos encontrar el valor de x (positivo), tal que esa expresión sea igual a cero, entonces tenemos que resolver:

9*x^2 - 80*x - 100 = 0.

Para ello podemos recordar la ecuación de Bhaskara, que para una ecuación de la forma:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

Las soluciones son:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +-\sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2a}[/tex]

en este caso, tenemos:

a = 9

b = -80

c = -100

Entoces, las soluciones van a ser:

[tex]x = \frac{-(-80) +- \sqrt{(-80)^2 - 4*9*(-100)} }{2*9} = \frac{80 +- 100}{18}[/tex]

Entonces las dos soluciones son:

x = (80 - 100)/18 = -20/18 = -10/9

Esta solución la descartamos, pues es negativa. La otra solución es:

x = (80 + 100)/18 = 180/18 = 10

La opción correcta es a: 10

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of y=6x-5.

Answers

Answer:

The slope is 6 and the y intercept is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=6x-5

The equation is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 6 and the y intercept is -5

Answer:

[tex]slope=6\\\\y-intercept=-5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is written in slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where:

m is the slope (the change in the y values over the change in the x values)b is the y-intercept (where the x value is 0 and the line crosses over the y-axis)x and y are corresponding coordinate points that lie on the line (x,y)

Find the values:

[tex]y=(slope)x+(y-intercept)\\\\y=6x-5[/tex]

6 is in the slope place, so the slope is 6.

5 is in the y-intercept place. Note how this number has a negative sign when the original equation says "+b". This means that the y-intercept is -5.

not tryna be rude but theres no map

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

b) Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

We have,

a)

The three figures bearing B from A are:

1 cm = 200 km

This means,

AB = 2.4 cm

So,

2.4 x 200 = 480 km

And,

BC has two parts:

1.2 cm and 1.5 cm

1.2 cm x 200 km = 240 km

1.5 x 200 km = 300 km

The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

Now,

Jafar distance.

= AB

= 480 km

Kenzi distance.

= BC

= 240 km + 300 km

= 540 km

The difference between the distance driven.

= 540 km - 480 km

= 60 km

This means,

Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

Thus,

The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.

Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

Not certain if this question is complete

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We perform the operations given, using the rules of subtraction and addition on the number line:

Two negative signs adds up to a negative result, one negative number and positive number may add up to a negative or positive value depending on which is bigger :

2-26= -24( the positive value 2 reduces negative value by 2 and we are left with -24)

-48-16= -64( two negative values add up to a negative value)

07-6= 1( seven is bigger than 6 hence positive result)

We use the above method to solve the given expressions

Melanie deposits $8200 in a bank account paying 4.4% simple interest. How much money will be in her account after 5 years and 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

8200+1894.40 = $10,094.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

I = P x r x t

Where:

P is the principal amount, $8200.00.

r is the interest rate, 4.4% per year, or in decimal form, 4.4/100=0.044.

t is the time involved, 5.5....year(s) time periods.

So, t is 5.5....year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 8200 × 0.044 × 5.5 to get that:

The interest is: $1984.40  + add to Investment ($8000) and you'll get the answer.

Ronald measured a house and its lot and made a scale drawing. The front patio, which is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing. What scale did Ronald use?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the measurement of the house The front patio, is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing

Real life= 14 meters

Drawing= 7 millimeters,

The scale he used is 2 metre= 1millimetre

Which means he magnify the drawing by scale of 2 metre to get the real life structure.

✓Let us clarify it

14 meters = 7 millimeters

2 metre= x millimeter

If we cross multiply

7 millimeters× 2 metre= 14 metre × X millimeters
