What value of x satisfies the equation 5(x – 3) – 2(x + 1) = 4?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

Distribute 5 among everything inside the first parentheses. You'll get 5x - 15.

Next distribute -2 among everything in the second parentheses. You'll get

-2x - 2.

All together: 5x - 15 -2x - 2 = 4

Now combine like terms:

5x - 2x = 3x and -15 - 2 = - 17

All together: 3x - 17 = 4

Add 17 on both sides to get 21, and then divide both sides by 3. Answer is x = 7.

________________________________

Last, don't forget to check your work.

You can plug in 7 for x to get:

5(7 - 3) = 20

5 × 7 = 35

5 × -3 = -15

35 - 15 = 20

-2(7 + 1) = -16

-2 × 7 = -14

-2 × 1 = - 2

-14 -2 = -16

20 - 16 = 4

⬆⬆⬆Therefore this is correct.

Sorry this is a bit lengthy, but hope this helps :)

Answer:

x < 1 and x > -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 1 < 4 and 3x + 5 > x + 1

Step 1.) Transfer the -1 over by the 4 by adding it because you use the opposite symple when its transfered.

5x < 5 and 3x + 5 > x + 1

Step 2.) Divide 5 by 5 to get the variable alone

x < 1 and 3x + 5 > x + 1

Step 3.) Subtract x from 3x which gives 2x and subtract 5 from 1 which gives -4

x < 1 and 2x > -4

Srep 5.) Divide -4 by 2 to get the variable alone and you get -2

x < 1 and x > -2

Solve and graph the solution to the inequality -2(2x-3)<-26

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x > 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify the expression

Expand the parentheses:

[tex]-2*2x-2*-3<-26[/tex]

Simplify the arithmetic:

[tex]-4x+6<-26[/tex]

2. Group all constants on the right side of the inequality

Subtract 6 from both sides:

[tex]-4x+6-6<-26-6[/tex]

Simplify the arithmetic:

[tex]-4x<-26-6[/tex]

Simplify the arithmetic:

[tex]-4x<-32[/tex]

3. Isolate the x

Divide both sides by-4:

When dividing or multiplying by a negative number, always flip the inequality sign:

[tex]\frac{-4x}{-4} >\frac{-32}{-4}[/tex]

Cancel out the negatives:

[tex]\frac{4x}{4} >\frac{-32}{-4}[/tex]

Simplify the fraction:

[tex]x>\frac{-32}{-4}[/tex]

Cancel out the negatives:

[tex]x>\frac{32}{4}[/tex]

Find the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator:

[tex]x>\frac{8*4}{1*4}[/tex]

p = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2p - 1) - 2*(3p+ 4) = 11p

Use distributive property: a(b +c) =a*b +a*c

3*2p -3*1 -2*3p + (-2)*4 = 11p

6p - 3  - 6p - 8 = 11p

6p - 6p - 3 - 8 = 11p

Divide both sides by 11

Answer:

m^2/n

Step-by-step explanation:

The following laws of exponent are useful to this problem:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{ {(mn)}^{b} = {m}^{b} {n}^{b} } \\ \displaystyle \large{ {n}^{ - b} = \frac{1}{ {n}^{b} } }[/tex]

We are given the expression:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } }[/tex]

Use the first law of exponent above.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } = {m}^{(8)( \frac{1}{4}) } {n}^{ ( - 4)( \frac{1}{4}) } } \\ \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } = {m}^{2 } {n}^{ - 1} }[/tex]

Make sure to recall the important necesscary fundamental math such as operation with negative numbers/integers, basic division, fraction, etc.

From the expression, apply the second law of exponent to n^-1.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } = {m}^{2 } ( \frac{1}{ {n}^{1} } )} \\ \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } = {m}^{2 } ( \frac{1}{ {n} } )} \\ [/tex]

Multiply m in.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{( {m}^{8} {n}^{ - 4} )^{ \frac{1}{4} } = \frac{ {m}^{2} }{ {n} } }[/tex]

Thus the answer is m^2/n.

7x = -28

Divide both sides by 7.

x = -4

Substitute the values and find the slope. Once you find the slope (m) to be [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex], take any of the two points and apply it to the slope intercept formula (y=mx+b) to find b. I took the point (0,2) and applied it to the formula. It should look like 2= [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex](0)+b. Solve for b by multiplying 2/5 by zero and your left with 2=b.

A jumping spider's movement is modeled by a parabola. The spider makes a single jump from the origin and reaches a maximum height of 10 mm halfway across a horizontal
distance of 80 mm.
Part A: Write the equation of the parabola in standard form that models the spider's jump. Show your work. (4 points)
Part B: Identify the focus, directrix, and axis of symmetry of the parabola. (6 points)

Answers

A parabola is a mirror-symmetrical U-shape.

The equation of the parabola is [tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}(x - 80)^2 + 10}[/tex]The focus is [tex]\mathbf{Focus = (80, -1760)}[/tex]The directrix is [tex]\mathbf{y = \frac{1}{640}}[/tex]The axis of the symmetry of parabola is: [tex]\mathbf{x = 80}[/tex]

From the question, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Vertex: (h,k) = (80,10)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Origin: (x,y) = (0,0)}[/tex]

The equation of a parabola is:

[tex]\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}[/tex]

Substitute the values of origin and vertex in [tex]\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{0 = a(0 - 80)^2 + 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{0 = a(- 80)^2 + 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{0 = 6400a + 10}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{6400a =- 10}[/tex]

Solve for a

[tex]\mathbf{a =- \frac{1}{640}}[/tex]

Substitute the values of a and the vertex in [tex]\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}(x - 80)^2 + 10}[/tex]

The focus of a parabola is:

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (h, \frac{k+1}{4a})}[/tex]

Substitute the values of a and the vertex in [tex]\mathbf{Focus = (h, \frac{k+1}{4a})}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (80, \frac{10+1}{4 \times -\frac{1}{640}})}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (80, -\frac{11}{\frac{1}{160}})}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (80, -11\times 160)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (80, -1760)}[/tex]

The equation of the directrix is:

[tex]\mathbf{y = -a}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{y = \frac{1}{640}}[/tex] ----- the directrix

The axis of symmetry is:

[tex]\mathbf{x = -\frac{b}{2a}}[/tex]

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}(x - 80)^2 + 10}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}(x^2 -160x + 6400) +10}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}x^2 +\frac{1}{4}x - 10 +10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{640}x^2 +\frac{1}{4}x }[/tex]

A quadratic function is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = ax^2 + bx + c}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{a = -\frac{1}{640}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{b = \frac{1}{4}}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]\mathbf{x = -\frac{b}{2a}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = -\frac{1/4}{2 \times -1/640}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x = \frac{1/4}{1/320}}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{x = \frac{320}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x = 80}[/tex]

Hence, the axis of the symmetry of parabola is: [tex]\mathbf{x = 80}[/tex]
