Solve the following equations. Check your work
-5x + 3 = 2x - 1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x+3 = 2x -1

-5x + 3 +1 = 2x

4 - 5x = 2x

4 = 7x

x = 4/7

To check work, we must plug back the value we got into our equation and make sure that both sides are equal to each other.

-5(4/7) + 3 = 2(4/7) -1

1/7 = 1/7

Answer 2

I got 1/7 i don't know if that's right, so please tell me

At what point does the graph of 3x + 4y = 15 intersect the graph of x^2 + y^2 = 9? Express any non-integer coordinate as a common fraction.

Answers

Answer

12 and 36 and 13

If  you need an explanation;

let's first isolate x in 3x + 4y = 15 ---

x = (15 - 4y) / 3

now substitute as x in the second equation provided ---

((15 - 4y) / 3)^2) + y^2  = 9,

((15 - 4y) / 3)^2) +( 3y/3)^2  = 9,

((15 - 4y)^2 + (3y/3)^2)/3^2 = 9,

225 - 120y +25y^2/9 = 9,

225 - 120y +25y^2 = 81,

25y^2 - 120y + 144 = 0

we now solve using the quadratic formula  ---

[tex]y_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-120\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-120\right)^2-4\cdot \:25\cdot \:144}}{2\cdot \:25}\\=\frac{-\left(-120\right)\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\cdot \:25}\\=\frac{-\left(-120\right)\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\cdot \:25}\\\\= 12/5[/tex]

So then x = (15 - 4*12/5)/3 = 9/5. Our solution = (9/5, 12/5)

In the diagram below, line AB is parallel to line CD. The measure of
∠∠ABC is 28° and the measure of ∠∠EDC is 42°. Find the measure of∠∠CED. Explain why you are correct by presenting an informal argument that uses the angle sum of a triangle.

what is the measure of ∠∠CED is ? And Explain why ?

Answers

Answer:

ced is 110 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

because ECD is 28 degrees and 28+42=70 and a triange always = 180 degrees so it would have to be 110

The measure of ∠CED is 110 degrees by angle sum property of the triangle.

We are given that line AB is parallel to line CD.

The measure of ∠ABC is 28° and the measure of ∠EDC is 42°

What are exterior angles?

An exterior angle is a measure of rotation between one extended side(we extend it virtually) of the polygon with its adjacent side which is not extended.

We know that line AB is parallel to line CD.

So according to alternate interior angles measure of ∠ABC is 28° will be equal to BCD.

Thus, Angle BCD= 28 degrees

Hence, in a triangle CED

∠CED + ∠EDC + BCD = 180

∠CED + 28 + 42 = 180

∠CED = 180 - 70

∠CED = 110 degrees

Therefore, the measure of ∠CED is 110 degrees by angle sum property of the triangle.

Jessica is 5 years older than her sister Jenna. Jenna tells her sister that in 5 years, she will be as old as Jessica was 5 years ago. If Jenna’s age is x, which equation represents the situation? How many solutions does the equation have?
A.
x + 5 = (5 − x) − 5, which has one solution
B.
x + 5 = (x + 5) − 5, which has infinitely many solutions
C.
x + 5 = (x + 5) − 5, which has no solution
D.
x + 5 = (5 − x) − 5, which has infinitely many solutions
E.

Answers

Answer:

   Jenna's age                   Jessica's age

today                         x                               x + 5

in 5 years                 x+5  

5 years ago                                                   x + 5 - 5

Equality                  x + 5 = x + 5 - 5

=> x + 5 = x

The equation is x + 5 = x

That equation has not any solution, because it reduces to 5 = 0, which is an absurd.

So, the conclusion is that information given by Jenna is wrong.

It is logical: if the difference of the ages is 5, in five years Jenna will have 10 years more than what her sister had 5 years ago, no 5 as she told Jessica.

Answer:

(x + 5) + 5 = (x + 5) + 5, which has infinitely many solutions
