Answer:
1. x=4
2. x=7
3. x=-2
4. x=-2
5. x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Divide both sides by -2 to get x by itself
-2x/-2=-8/-2....
x=4
2. Add 4 to both sides and then divide by -2
-2x-4+4=-18+4
-2x/-2=-14/-2
x=7
3. Distribute, add 12 to both sides and then divide by 3
3x-12=-18
3x-12+12=-18+12
3x/3=-6/3
x=-2
4. Add 5 to both sides
x-5+5=-7+5
x=-2
5. Distribute, add 4 to both sides, divide both sides by 4
4x-4=-16
4x-4+4=-16+4
4x/4=-12/4
x=-3

answer this question
Answer:
a = p * q
b = p * s + q * r
c = r * s
Step-by-step explanation:
In the trinomial ax² + bx + c
a is the coefficient of x²
b is the coefficient of x
c is the numerical term
∵ The trinomial is ax² + bx + c
∵ Its factors are (px + r) and (qx + s)
∴ ax² + bx + c = (px + r)(qx + s)
∵ (px + r)(qx + s) = (px)(qx) + (px)(s) + r(qx) + (r)(s)
∴ (px + r)(qx + s) = pqx² + (psx + qrx) + rs
∴ ax² + bx + c = pqx² + (ps + qr)x + rs
→ By comparing the two sides
∵ ax² = pqx² ⇒ divide both sides by x²
∴ a = pq
∵ bx = (ps + qr)x ⇒ Divide both sides by x
∴ b = ps + qr
∴ c = rs
∴ a = p * q
∴ b = p * s + q * r
∴ c = r * s
Mr. Ortiz took his friends out to dinner last night and their subtotal was $88.24.
If the sales tax is 5% and if he plans to leave a 20% tip after the tax is added, how much did Mr. Ortiz spend total on dinner?

$111.18
Step-by-step explanation:
Dinner is $88.24
Tax is (.05)$88.24 = $4.41
20% after tax added (.20)92.65 = $18.53
total dinner cost is $111.18
Listen Rachel babysat three children for five hours if they were paid $2.50 per hour for each child and divided their earnings equally how much did each girl receive
Answer: Each girl will receive $18.75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Two girls babysat three children for five hours.
Hourly pay for each child = $2.50
Payment for 5 hours per child = [tex]5\times\$2.50=\$12.5[/tex]
Payment to 3 children for 5 hours = [tex]3\times \$12.5=\$37.5[/tex]
So, the amount received by each girl = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Payment to 3 children for 5 hours}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{37.5}{2}=\$18.75[/tex]
Hence, each girl will receive $18.75.
help plz or my teacher will give me a zero
Answer:
Variable x = $2.39 ⇒ price of 1 pound of cashews
Variable y = $1.79 ⇒ price of 1 pound of peanuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the price of each pound of cashews is $x and the price of each pound of peanuts is $y
∵ The price of 1 pound of cashews = x
∵ The price of 1 pound of peanuts = y
∵ 5 pounds of cashews and 8 pounds of peanuts cost $26.27
∴ 5x + 8y = 26.27 ⇒ (1)
∵ 7 pounds of cashews and 4 pounds of peanuts cost $23.89
∴ 7x + 4y = 23.89 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
→ Multiply equation (2) by -2 to make the coefficients of y equal
in values and different in signs
∵ -2(7x) + -2(4y) = -2(23.89)
∴ -14x - 8y = -47.78 ⇒ (3)
→ Add equations (1) and (3) to eliminate y
∵ (5x + -14x) + (8y + - 8y) = (26.27 + -47.78)
∴ -9x = -21.51
→ Divide both sides by -9 to find x
∴ x = 2.39
→ Substitute x in equation (1) or (2) to find y
∵ 5(2.39) + 8y = 26.27
∴ 11.95 + 8y = 26.27
→ Subtract 11.95 from both sides
∴ 8y = 14.32
→ Divide both sides by 8 to find y
∴ y = 1.79
∴ The price of 1 pound of cashews is $2.39
∴ The price of 1 pound of peanuts is $1.79

All 40 turkeys are in a pen. 1/4 are sleeping. 1/8 are eating, and 5/8 of them are hiding from the butcher. How many are sleeping How many are eating How many are hiding
Answer:
[tex]Sleeping = 10[/tex]
[tex]Eating = 5[/tex]
[tex]Hiding =25[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Turkey = 40[/tex]
[tex]Sleeping = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Eating = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Hiding = \frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Required
Determine the number in each category
To solve this, we simply multiply each fraction by the total number of turkey:
[tex]Sleeping = \frac{1}{4} * 40[/tex]
[tex]Sleeping = \frac{40}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Sleeping = 10[/tex]
[tex]Eating = \frac{1}{8} * 40[/tex]
[tex]Eating = \frac{40}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Eating = 5[/tex]
[tex]Hiding = \frac{5}{8} * 40[/tex]
[tex]Hiding = \frac{200}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Hiding =25[/tex]

Every ride at the country fair costs the same amount. The cost of one ride is $2.25. The fair entry fee is $6.50. Lupe paid the entrance fee and rode 7 rides. How much did Lupe pay in all?
Answer:
$22.25Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
we are told that the cost of one ride is $2.25
the entry fee= $6.5
the linear function for the situation is represented by the equation of line
y=mx+c
Step two:
let x be the number of ride
given that x=7
substituting we have
y=2.25(7)+6.5
y=15.75+6.5
y=22.25
In all Lupe we have to pay $22.25
A 14 foot long ramp is being built to access a front door in a house. The door is 5 feet above the ground. How far away from the base of the house must the ramp be placed? What angle will the ramp make with the ground?
Answer:
The ramp must be placed 13.08 feet from the base of the house.
The angle the ramp will make with the ground is 20.92°.
Step-by-step explanation:
An illustrative diagram for the scenario is shown below.
In the diagram, d represents the distance of the door from the ground, r represents the length of the ramp and x represent the distance of the ramp from the base of the house.
To determine how far away from the base of the house the ramp must be placed, that is to determine x in the diagram.
The diagram is a right angle triangle and x can be determine using the Pythagorean theorem which states " the square of the hypotenuse equals sum of the squares of the other two sides"
In the diagram, the hypotenuse is r
∴ r² = d² + x²
r = 14 ft
d = 5 ft
∴ 14² = 5² + x²
196 = 25 + x²
Then, x² = 196 - 25
x² = 171
x = √171
x = 13.08
Hence, the ramp must be placed 13.08 feet from the base of the house.
Now, to determine what angle the ramp will make with the ground, that is θ in the diagram.
From the formula
Sinθ = Opposite / Hypotenuse
In the diagram, opposite = d = 5ft
and Hypotenuse = r = 14ft
∴ Sinθ = 5ft / 14ft
Sinθ = 0.3571
∴ θ = Sin⁻¹(0.3571)
θ = 20.92°
Hence, the angle the ramp will make with the ground is 20.92°.

When you are dealing with a problem like this how do you solve it to make sure that the exponent is positive?
14 to the -4 power times 14 to the 7 power. I know that we will keep the base because they are the same but do I add or subtract the exponents?
Answer:
All you need to remember is the rules
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us remember
a to the m power x a to the nth power is = a to the m+n power. (add the exponents)
And
a to the m power ÷ a to the nth power is = a to the m-n power. (subtract the exponents) So
14 to the -4 power x 14 to the 7 power= 14 to the -4+7 which is equal to 14 to the 3rd power

4x - 1 = 3x + 6
4x - 3x = 6 + 1
x = 7
Answer:
C. 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram to the question attached. Two congruent triangles has all its sides to be equal. This means that the sides of ΔABM will be equal to that of ΔDCM (SSS rule).
Given
BM = 3x+6
MC =4x-1
Since both triangles are congruent, then BM = MC
Next is to get x;
3x+6 = 4x-1
collect like terms'
3x-4x = -1-6
-x = -7
multiply through by -1
-(-x) = -(-7)
x = 7
Hence the value of x that will make triangles ABM and DCM congruent is 7

A student ate 3/20 of all the candy and another 1.2 lb. Another student ate 3/5 of the candy and the remaining 0.3 lb. What was the total weight of the candy they ate?
Answer:
x = 6 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Total weight of the candy = x
3/20x + 1.2 lb + 3/5x + 0.3 lb = x
3/20x + 3/5x + 1.5 lb = x
3x+12x/20 + 1.5 lb = x
15/20x + 1.5 = x
1.5 = x - 15/20x
1.5 =20x -15x /20
1.5 = 5/20x
1.5 = 1/4x
x = 1.5 ÷ 1/4
= 1.5 × 4/1
= 6
x = 6 lb
A car can travel 480 miles on a full tank of petrol. The tank holds 60 litres. The fuel gauge shows there and 15 litres left in the tank. How many more miles can the car travel before it runs out of petrol?
Answer:
Miles= 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
A car can travel 480 miles on a full tank of petrol. The tank holds 60 liters.
First, we need to calculate the miles per liter:
Miles per litre= 480 / 60
Miles per litre= 8 miles
Now, the miles that can be driven with 15 liters:
Miles= 15*8
Miles= 120
