-a-10 = 5a +8 pleasee help me

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

5a+a=-10-8

6a=-18

a=-18/6

a=-3

Answer 2

Answer:

  a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation in one variable that has a constant term and a variable term on each side of the equal sign. It can be solved in 3 steps, so can be called a "3-step equation."

The three steps involve separating the variable and constant terms, then dividing by the variable's coefficient.

__

  -a -10 = 5a +8 . . . . . . given

step 1

To separate the variable and constant terms, we eliminate one of the variable terms by adding its opposite to both sides of the equation. It is generally convenient to choose the variable term with the lowest coefficient value. When we add the opposite of that to both sides of the equation, the resulting variable term will have a positive coefficient. (Dealing with positive numbers generally reduces errors.)

Here the two variable terms are -a and 5a. The coefficient -1 is less than the coefficient 5, so we choose to add the opposite of -a to both sides.

  -a +a -10 = 5a +a +8 . . . . . add a to both sides

  -10 = 6a +8 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

step 2

Now there is only one variable term, but it has a constant added to it. We can eliminate that constant by adding its opposite.

  -10 -8 = 6a +8 -8 . . . . . add -8 to both sides

  -18 = 6a . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

step 3

This equation gives us the value of a multiple of the variable (6a). To get the variable by itself, we multiply by the reciprocal of the variable's coefficient. The product of the coefficient and its reciprocal is 1, so we will have the variable alone.

Multiplying by 1/6 is the same as dividing by 6. Often, it is easier to think in terms of division. However, when the coefficient is a fraction, it can be useful to think in terms of multiplying by the reciprocal of that fraction.

  (1/6)(-18) = (1/6)(6a) . . . . . . multiply by 1/6

  -3 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

The solution to the equation is a = -3.

_____

Additional comment

When we say "add" or "multiply" the equation by some number, we mean that operation to be performed on both sides of the equation. The properties of equality say we can do whatever we like to an equation, as long as we do the same thing to both sides of the equation.

Which statement about the functions is true?





The minimum value of f(x) is less than the minimum value of g(x).


f(x) and g(x) intersect at exactly one point.


f(x) and g(x) have the same y-intercept.


The x-intercepts of f(x) are common to those of g(x) .

Answers

The x-intercepts of f(x) are common to those of g(x) .

What is x-intercept?

The x-intercept is the point on the coordinate at which a line, curve or plane intersect with the x-axis. The value of y is equal to zero at x-intercept.

For me, it helps to graph everything on the same xy coordinate system. Start with the given graph and plot the points shown in the table. You'll get what you see in the diagram below.

The blue point C in that diagram is on the red parabola. This point is the x intercept as this is where both graphs cross the x axis. Therefore, they have a common x intercept.

Choice 1 is not true due to choice 4 being true. We have f(x) = g(x) when x = 2, which is why f(x) > g(x) is not true for all x.

Choice 2 is not true. Point B is not on the parabola.

Choice 3 is not true. There is only one known intersection point between f(x) and g(x), and that is at the x intercept mentioned above. Of course there may be more intersections, but we don't have enough info to determine this.

You are going to visit a relative out of town and want to go to the gym while visiting. Hunkey Heros charges a registration fee of $50 plus a monthly fee of $20. Zipity-zapity- zap-that-fat charges $70 to join, but only $10 per month. After how many months do the gyms cost the same? a) Declare your variables:

c) Solve

b) Write a system of equations:​

Answers

The number of months when the gyms cost the same is 5 months.

When would the cost be the same?

Total cost of joining the gym = registration fee + (cost per month x number of months)

Hunkey Heros = $50 + $20m Zipity-zapity- zap-that-fat = $70 + $10m

When the gyms costs are the same, the two above equations would be equal to each other:

50 + 20m = 70 + 10m

20m - 10m = 70 - 20

10m = 50

m = 50 / 10

m = 5

write the ratio for tan A

Answers

Answer:

tan A = 5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent ratio is equal to the length of the side opposite of the angle over the length of the side adjacent to the angle. If we are finding tangent in respect to angle A, the opposite side would be line CB with a length of 5. The adjacent side is line AC with a length of 12. Therefore, the tan A ratio is 5/12.

Factor x³ + x² + x + 1 by grouping. What is the resulting expression?

Answers

Answer:  (x² + 1)(x + 1)

Work Shown:

x³ + x² + x + 1

(x³ + x²) + (x + 1)

x²(x+1) + 1(x + 1)

(x² + 1)(x + 1)

The basic outline is to pair up the terms into two groups. We factor each group separately, and then factor out the overall GCF (x+1). You can use the FOIL rule to verify the answer.

The factored form of x³ + x² + x + 1 is (x²+1)(x+1).

What is Factorization?

A number or other mathematical item is factored (or factorised; see English spelling changes) or factored by a number of factors, usually smaller or simpler things of the same kind.

We have,

x³ + x² + x + 1

Now, making groups as

(x³ + x²) + (x + 1)

= x² (x + 1) + (x+1)

= (x²+1)(x+1)

Two angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 2:3 if the third angle is 50 degree find the other two angles

Two angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 2:3 if the third angle is 50 degree find the other two angles

the sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180°

130 : 5 = 26° (unit)

26 * 2 = 52°

26 * 3 = 78°

What is a Parabola ?

A parabola is a u shaped curve. It is a plane curve whose all points are at a fixed distance form a point called focus.

(x-h)² = 4a(y-k)

It is given that the parabola goes through the point (3, -1), and the vertex is at (2, -2).

Iman has 48 months to save $18,000, the maximum amount he estimates his first year of college will cost. he does not want to depend on interest, and does not consider interest when determining his minimum monthly savings goal. what is the minimum amount he should save per month to achieve his goal? $350.00 $375.00 $425.00 $450.00

Answers

Answer:

$ 375 / month

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 18 000 / 48 months = 375 /month

The minimum amount he should save per month to achieve his goal is $375.00. Thus, option 2 is correct.

Given that:

Number of months = 48

Monthly savings = $18,000

The minimum amount to save per month can be calculated by dividing the total amount by the number of months:

Minimum monthly savings goal = Total amount to save / Number of months

Minimum monthly savings goal = $18,000 / 48

Minimum monthly savings goal ≈ $375.00

Therefore, the minimum amount he should save per month to achieve his goal is $375.00. Thus, option 2 is correct.

Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics dealing with the relationship between the sides of a triangle and the angles.

Analysis:

The supplies distance travelled, distance of first floor from second floor and the ground form a right angled triangle.

so that sin 60 = 39/distance travelled by supplies

distance travelled by supplies = 39/sin 60 = 39/0.866 = 45 feet.

speed = distance / time

time = distance / speed = 45/70 = 0.6 min

In conclusion, the distance and time time taken for the supplies to get to the next floor is 45feet and 0.6 min respectively.
