Use Pythagorean's Theorem for a right triangle. Your best bet when learning/visualizing word problems is to draw a picture, then learn how to visualize in your head over time.

[tex]3^2+x^2=12^2\\9+x^2=144\\x=\sqrt{135}[/tex]

The radical can be further simplified because 135 is the product of 9 and 15. 9 has a perfect root of 3.

To find:

The missing values for the given blanks.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]25+x=31[/tex]

If 25 is subtracted from both sides, we get

b) 2(x-3) + X = 5x-2(x+5)

Answers

Answer:

X=x−4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x−3)+X=5x−2(x+5)

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x−3.

2x−6+X=5x−2(x+5)

Use the distributive property to multiply −2 by x+5.

2x−6+X=5x−2x−10

Combine 5x and −2x to get 3x.

2x−6+X=3x−10

Subtract 2x from both sides.

−6+X=3x−10−2x

Combine 3x and −2x to get x.

−6+X=x−10

Add 6 to both sides.

X=x−10+6

Add −10 and 6 to get −4.

X=x−4

B.) Use your equation to determine the number of gallons of paint needed if a customer bought 6 rollers

Answers

The total price for the gallons of paint will be 35.75p

The total price for the rollers will be 6r

So the equation if the customer have 190 will be

price for gallons of paint + price for rollers = 190

Answer:

(1) [tex](x,y) = (-2,-4)[/tex]

(2) [tex]y = 4x -26[/tex]

(3) [tex]x = 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(1):

[tex]2x - y = 0[/tex]

[tex]x + 3y = -14[/tex]

Required: Solve for x and y

Make x the subject in [tex]x + 3y = -14[/tex]

[tex]x = -3y - 14[/tex]

Substitute -3y - 14 for x in the first equation

[tex]2x - y = 0[/tex]

[tex]2(-3y-14) - y = 0[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]-6y - 28 - y = 0[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]- y-6y = 28[/tex]

[tex]-7y = 28[/tex]

Divide both sides by -7

[tex]y = -4[/tex]

Substitute -4 for y in [tex]2x - y = 0[/tex]

[tex]2x - (-4) = 0[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4 = 0[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]2x = -4[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

Hence, the solution is:

[tex](x,y) = (-2,-4)[/tex]

(2):

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (7,2)[/tex] -- points

[tex]m = 4[/tex] --- slope

Required: Determine the line equation

This is calculated using:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]y = 4(x - 7) + 2[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y = 4x - 28 + 2[/tex]

[tex]y = 4x -26[/tex]

(3)

[tex]4 - 5x + 3 = 4x - 2[/tex]

Required: Solve for x

Collect Like Terms

[tex]- 5x -4x = - 2-3-4[/tex]

How can you isolate the variable in x-3 = 7

Answers

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate the variable (x) you would first write out x - 3 = 7. Now to make x on its own we have to get rid of the -3 so to do that we would add the reciprocal of -3 (or the opposite) which is +3. x - 3 + 3 = 7 + 3 or x = 10.

Next, we cross-multiply.  This eliminates the fractions:

find the slope of the line passing through the points (-9,5) and (-1,5)​

Answers

Slope = change in Y / change in x:

Slope = (5- 5) / (-1 - -9)

Slope = 0/8

Because the change in Y = 0, the slope = 0

Slope = 0

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

(-9,5) and (-1,5)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(5 - 5) / (-1 - 9)

Simplify the parentheses.

Elaine drives her car 180 miles and has an average of a certain speed. If the average speed had been 5mph more, she could have traveled 200 miles in the same length of time. What was her average speed?

Answers

Answer:

45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation d = rt, we can rearrange the equation to be t = d/r

Since the amount of time was the same, we can set d/r equal to each other for both speeds.

Let x represent the average speed.

[tex]\frac{d}{r}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{d}{r}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{180}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{200}{x+5}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

200x = 180x + 900

20x = 900

x = 45

So, the average speed was 45 mph

a gumball machine gives you no gum if you insert 5c, 5 gumballs if you insert 10c , 10 gumballs if you insert 15c and 15 gumballs if you insert 20c. how many gumballs could you expect to receive if you insert 35c?​

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

create a function where x is the money you insert in cents and y is the amount of gumballs you get.

y = x - 5 (meaning you get five less gumballs than the amount of cents you insert)

Therefore, when x = 35:

y = 35 - 5 = 30.

You will get 30 gumballs.

y = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} y + 22 = 38[/tex]

Subtract 22 from both sides to isolate the y variable.

[tex]\frac{1}{2} y = 16[/tex]

Divide both sides by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], which is the same as multiplying by 2.

y = 32

1/2y + 22 = 38

         -22    -22

1/2y = 16

x2      x2   ---> This is because if 1/2y = 26, that means y times 1/2 is 26, but we                  want to know what y times 1 is because y times 1 is equal to y so we multiply by 2 because 1/2 times 2 equals 1.

That is your triangle.

Now, since its a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

The equation for the Pythagorean theorem is this: [tex]A^{2} + B^{2} = C^{2}[/tex]

So we plug in the values.

[tex](x^{2} ) + (x-9)^{2} = (x + 9)^{2}[/tex]

We solve for x.

[tex]x^{2} + x^{2} -18x + 81 = x^{2} + 18x + 81[/tex]

Get everything to the left side of the equation. (x^2 + x^2 = 2x^2, - x^2 = x^2;

-18x - 18x = -36x;    81 - 81 = 0)

[tex]x^{2} -36x = 0[/tex]

Add 36x to both sides, then divide by x.

[tex]x^{2} = 36x\\\\x = 36[/tex]

greater than the cost of domestic shipping.

Write About It!

If you spent $22.50 on shipping, how much is the cost of

domestic shipping? Define a variable, write an equation,

and solve the problem.

Answers

Answer: $3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of domestic shipping be x.

Since the cost of international shipping is $2.50 greater than the cost of domestic shipping. This will be:

= x + 2.50

Since we are further told that three of the cards will be shipped domestically, and two will be shipped internationally and that $22.50 will be spent on shipping, this will be express in an equation as:

3x + 2(x + 2.50) = 22.50

3x + 2x + 5.00 = 22.50

5x = 22.50 - 5.00

5x = 17.50

x = 17.50/5

x = $3.50

The cost if domestic shipping is $3.50
