How to solve for x 2x + 3x -5 =20

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify to 2x+ 3x -5 to 5x-5

5x- 5 = 20

Add 5 to both sides.

5x= 20+5

Simplify 20+5 to 25.

5x= 25

Divide both sides by 5.

x= 25/5

Simplify 25/5 to 5.

x=5

HURRY STRANGERS PLEASE I REALLY NEED THIS!!! A paper manufacturer is evaluating their packing procedures. Currently, they package twelve reams of paper in a box—in three stacks of four reams. However, their company has been getting complaints from the retail stores that the box is too large and heavy for the average consumer to carry by their self. So, they have decided to reduce the weight of each box by ten pounds. You have been asked to explore the different packing options based on the new weight condition and present your recommendation to the CEO of the paper company.


Identify three unique ways to package the paper given the new weight condition. Include both the dimensions of the new boxes, as well as a verbal description of how the reams will be packaged. You may include sketches if you wish.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Base on my own understanding what should be done is that three stacks will not work, because it wont be a symmetric arrangement and also one will be left out. So, two stacks of five each would be better and easy to carry. But the stacks should be arranged in such a manner that the lengths will be parallel to each other and not in-line which would increase the length making it comparatively very long. its easier to hold a (2*8.5,11,2*5=17,11,17) compact box, because it will be easy to carry a long and not heavy.

Step-by-step explanation:

if you get this wrong sorry:(

The answer is 13/20

Explanation:
20 is the denominator because it is how many drinks there are in total. 13 is the numerator because that’s how many are Diet Pepsi’s and you cannot simplify this. That’s why the answer in 13/20.

Two different sports teams are doing fundraising to be able to afford their uniforms. The softball team needs to raise $318.12 between the twelve girls on the team. The hockey team needs to raise $391.92 between the 24 boys on the team. If each player raises the same amount of money, does each softball player or hockey player need to raise more? How can estimation help you solve?

Answers

Answer: A softball player will need to raise more.

Step-by-step explanation:

The softball team needs to raise $318.12 among the twelve girls on the team. Each softball player needs to raise:

$318.12 ÷ 12 = $26.51

The hockey team needs to raise $391.92 among the 24 boys on the team. Each hockey player will raise:

$391.92 ÷ 24 = $16.33

A softball player will raise $26.51 while a hockey player will raise $16.33. Therefore, a softball player will need to raise more.

Doug is a dog, and his friend Bert is a bird. They live in Salt Lake City, where the streets are 1/16 miles apart and arranged in a
square grid (see map). They are both standing at the corner of 6th avenue and L street. Doug can run at an average speed of 30
mi/hr through the streets of Salt Lake, and Bert can fly at an average speed of 20 mi/hr. They are about to race to the corner of
10th avenue and Estreet. who would win and why?

Answers

No map given but it shouldn't matter.

E is the 5th letter, L the 12th.

Start at S(6,12).  End at E(10,5)

The vector between them, E-S=(4,-7)

Each unit is 1/16 of a mile, though that probably doesn't matter that much.

Doug has to stay on the grid, so has to run |4|+|7|=11 units.  At 30 mi/hr that takes (11/16)/30 =  0.022916 hours.

Bert can go diagonally, so flies √(4²+7²)=√65 ≈ 8.06 units.  At 20 mi/hr that takes (8.06/16)/20 = 0.025194 hours.

Answer:  Doug wins

Why? Because it's quicker to cover 4+7 at 30 mph than it is to cover √(4²+7²) at 20 mph.  That is, Doug is 1.5 times faster and the 1.5 times the diagonal distance is more than the grid distance.

Answer:

Doug wins. He finishes in 1.38 minutes. Bert takes 1.51 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each city block is a square 1/16 mile by 1/16 mile.

From 6th Av and L Street to 10th Av and E Street, they need to go 4 avenues and 7 streets over. These two distances along blocks are the legs of a right triangle. The right triangle has legs of length 4 * 1/16 mile and 7 * 1/16 mile.

leg1 = 4 * 1/16 mile = 0.25 mile

leg2 = 7 * 1.16 mile = 0.4375 mile

The hypotenuse of the right triangle can be calculated by the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(0.25 mile)^2 + (0.4375 mile)^2 = c^2

c = 0.50389

The direct distance from one corner to the other is 0.50389 miles.

The bird travels this distance since the bird can fly above the streets.

The dog has to travel along the legs of right triangle by running in the streets and avenues. The dog travels 0.25 mile + 0.4375 mile = 0.6875 miles

Now we need to see what takes less time:

Bird: distance of 0.50389 miles at 20 mph, or

Dog: distance of 0.6875 miles at 30 mph

We start with the formula for speed:

speed = distance/time

s = dt

Now we solve it for time:

st = d

t = d/s

Time equals distance divided by speed.

Now we find the times for the bird and for the dog.

Bird:

t = d/s = (0.50389 mi)/(20 mi/h) = 0.02519 hours = 1.51 minutes

Dog:

t = d/s = (0.6875 mi)/(30 mi/h) = 0.0229 hours = 1.38 minutes

The bird takes 1.51 minutes, and the dog takes 1.38 minutes.

The dog takes less time to get there, so the dog wins.

Answer: N= 135, M=45.

Step-by-step explanation:The formula to find the degree inside of a shape is: (n-2)180. This is an octagon, so it has 8 sides, plug this in for n.

8-2 * 180

1080                              divide by 8 to get the value of n

n=135

The formula for an angle outside of the shape is:

360/n   n is still eight, so plug this in for n

360/8

m=45

Answer:

n = 135 degrees ( ° ) ,

m = 45 degrees ( ° )

Step-by-step explanation:

* Sorry I didn't answer this before *

1. In this figure we can see that this visual is a representation of an octagon, provided it's 8 sides.

2. Knowing this, let us split this figure into triangle 180 degrees each ⇒ compute the total interior angles in degrees.

3. If you were to draw lines from one vertex to any other non-adjacent vertices, it would be that 6 triangles are formed.

4. One triangle ⇒ 180 degrees ( ° ) so that this octagon ⇒ 180° * number of triangles, or ⇒ 180 * 6 = 1080°

5. Knowing that this shape is a regular polygon, all angles are congruent such that if x represents one interior angle ⇒ 8x = 1080, ⇒ x = 135°. As n acts as one of the interior angles in this figure ⇒ n = 135 degrees ( ° )

6. Now through supplementary angles, the interior angle adjacent to angle m would form a linear pair, adding to 180°.

7. This would mean that m + interior angle = 180, and as all interior angles were found to be 135 degrees ⇒ m + 132 = 180 ⇒ m = 45 degrees ( ° )

180-118=42 so angle c=42

add 42 +76 =138

in a triangle all degrees ad up to 180 so

subtract 138 from 180=42

Answer:

B) 42 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If we're looking for the measure of angle E, we need to know the measures of angles D and C too. (Otherwise we just have nothing to work with.)

So they already give us angle D's measurement, which is 76; we just have to find the smaller angle at C and then solve for E. If this doesn't make sense, just look at C; there's a big angle (118) and a small one that we don't know. We have to find the small one.

Well at C there's just a straight line, so we can assume that the big angle and the small angle add up to 180 degrees, because straight angles are always 180 degrees.

Now to get the small angle, we can take 118 away from 180 to get 62, which will be the measure of the smaller angle. (Comment if you don't know why I did this.)

Now that we know two out of three measures in the triangle, we can find the measure of angle E. All triangles' angles add up to 180 degrees, so we can take away 76 (measure of D) and 62 (measure of small C) from 180 to get the measure of E: 180 - 76 - 62 = 42

So the measure of angle E is 42.
