What is the solution to the equation 1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5

Add 5/8x to each side

1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5

1/4x+5/8x +2=  - 5

Subtract 2 from each side

1/4x+5/8x +2-2=  - 5-2

1/4x+5/8x =  - 7

Get a common denominator

1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7

2/8x + 5/8x = -7

7/8x = -7

Multiply each side by 8/7

8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7

x = -8

Answer 2

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x+2=-5/8x-5

find l.c.m=8

multiply through by l.c.m which is 8

x/4×8+2×8=-5x/8×8-5×8

2x+16=-5x-40

2x+5x=-40-16

7x=-56

divide both sides by 7

7x/7=-56/7

x=-8

a pair of shoes is originally priced at 120 It is on sale for 35% off . Find the total percent that you would pay

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

If the discount is 35% off. then the new price is 65% of what the old price is. So we multiply 120 x .65 = 78

Answer:

You pay 65% which is $78

Step-by-step explanation:

You'd pay 65% of the original price.

65% of the original price is 78

To do this you multiply 65% by 120

A jar contains 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 yellow marbles. What is the probability of pulling a red marble, then pulling a blue marble, without

replacement? Calculate to the nearest tenth.

O 15.2 %

O 13.9%

14%

O 17.1%

Answers

Answer:

15.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles in the jar is:

5 + 4 + 3 = 12 marbles

The jar contains 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 yellow marbles.

The probability of pulling a red marble is 5/12

There are now 11 marbles in the jar.

The probability of pulling a blue marble is 4/11

Therefore, the probability of pulling a red marble, then, pulling a blue marble, without  replacement is:

5/12 * 4/11 = 5/33

Converting to percentage:

5/33 * 100 = 15.2%

C. There is exactly one line parallel to a given line through a given

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hyperbolic geometry is defined as a non-Euclidean geometry.

(invalidating the fifth postulate of Euclid's five fundamental postulates)

Choice B and D can be eliminated because this has nothing to do with perpendicular lines.

Choice C should be eliminated as well since that's exactly the fifth postulate of Euclid's five fundamental postulates

We are left with A by the process of elimination

A. There are an infinite number of lines parallel to a given line through a given point.

Determine whether these two triangles are congruent with the ASA congruence method. If so, write the congruence statement. answers: A) ΔFED ≅ ΔGFE B) ΔDEF ≅ ΔGEF C) The triangles aren't congruent using ASA. D) ΔDEF ≅ ΔGFE

Answers

Answer:

D) ΔDEF ≅ ΔGFE

Step-by-step explanation:

For ASA to be used, 2 angles and their included side must be congruent. ∠F ≅ ∠E because of the markings, ∠E ≅ ∠F because all right angles are congruent, and side FE ≅ EF because they are aligned with each other. 2 angles and their included side are congruent.

As for the congruence statement, D is the right answer because ∠D ≅ ∠G, ∠E ≅ F, and ∠F ≅ ∠E.

I hope this helps :))

ΔDEF ≅ ΔGFE are congruent with ASA. Option D is correct.

Given that,
Two triangles are given with a common side EF whose alternate interior angles are also equal .i.e ∠E = ∠F and also are of 90° in ΔDEF and ΔGFE respectively.

What are Similar triangles?

Similar triangles are those triangles that have similar properties,i.e. angles and proportionality of sides.

What is congruent geometry?

In congruent geometry, the shapes that are so identical. can be superimposed on themselves.

Here,
In ΔDEF and ΔGFE
∠DEF = ∠GFE (both are of  90°)
   EF = EF        (common side)
∠DFE = ∠GEF (alternate interior angle)
Hence  ΔDEF ≅ ΔGFE are congruent by ASA.

Thus, ΔDEF ≅ ΔGFE are congruent with ASA. Option D is correct.

A newspaper conducted a survey to find out how many high school students play video games. The two-way table below displays the data from the survey. Based on these data in the table, which statement is true? *

A. There were 2,451 boys surveyed, and about 29% of them play video games.
B. There were 2,996 girls surveyed, and about 45% of them play video games.
C. There were 5,447 students surveyed, and about 54% of them do not play video games.
D. There were 2,493 students surveyed, and about 34% of them are girls who do not play video games.

Answers

Answer:

Correct option is:

B. There were 2,996 girls surveyed, and about 45% of them play video games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us calculate the percentage step by step as per the options.

We are given the following:

1. Boys who do play video games = 1593

2. Boys who do not play video games = 858

3. Total boys = 2451

4. Girls who do play video games = 1361

5. Boys who do not play video games = 1635

6. Total boys = 2996

7. Total number of candidates = Total boys + Total girls = 5447

8. Total number of students, who play video games = 2954

9. Total number of students, who do not play video games = 2493

Percentage of boys who play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{1593}{2451} \times 100 = 64.99\%[/tex]

So, option A is not correct.

Percentage of girls who play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{1361}{2996} \times 100 = 45.43\%[/tex]

The percentage is near about 45%, so option B is correct.

Percentage of Total number of students, who do not play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{2493}{5447} \times 100 = 45.77\%[/tex]

So, option C is not correct.

Hence, correct answer is option B.

A chemist is adding pure (100%) acid to a 12 liter solution that is 15% acid in order to increase it to 49% acid. How much pure acid must she add?

How many ounces of 35% ethanol must be added to a 23 ounce mixture that contains 26% ethanol in order to obtain a mixture of 30.86% ethanol?

How many liters of 30% acid must be added to 10 liters of 53.66% acid in order to obtain a mixture that is 43% acid?

Answers

Answer:

1) 8 liters of pure acid

2) 27 liters of 35% ethanol

3) 8.2 liters of 30% acid

Step-by-step explanation:

The inicial amount of acid is 15% of 12 L, and the inicial volume is 12L.

Adding 'x' L of 100% acid, we have the amount of acid equal to 12 * 0.15 + x * 1, and the volume of 12 + x. The concentration is the amount of acid over the volume, so we have that:

(12*0.15 + x) / (12 + x) = 49/100

(1.8 + x)*100 = (12 + x) * 49

180 + 100x = 588 + 49x

51x = 408

x = 8 liters of pure acid

Similar to the solution above, for the second question we have:

(23*0.26 + 0.35*x) / (23 + x) = 30.86/100

(5.98 + 0.35*x)*100 = (23 + x) * 30.86

598 + 35x = 709.78 + 30.86x

4.14x = 111.78

x = 27 liters of 35% ethanol

For the third question, we have:

(10*0.5366 + 0.3*x) / (10 + x) = 43/100

(5.366 + 0.3x)*100 = (10 + x)*43

536.6 + 30x = 430 + 43x

13x = 106.6

x = 8.2 liters of 30% acid

Alaine has 1 gallon of paint. She is going to pour it into
paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 5 cm deep.
(1 gallon = 231 in?, 1 inch = 2.54 cm)
Which of the following scenarios will happen?
The paint will not fill the tray by 369 cm
The paint will not fill the tray by 5.22 in
The paint will fill the tray exactly
The paint will overfill the tray by 5.22 in?

Answers

Answer:

First, solve for the volume of the tray by the equation V = L x W x H. Convert first all the dimensions to inches. The operation gives an answer of volume equal to 236.22 in³. Converting the amount of paint available to in³. This gives an answer of 231 in³. Hence, the answer is letter B.

Harry likes to grow his own vegetables. He wants to harvest at least 129 squashes during the summer season. If he has already harvested 61 squashes and plans to pick 8 squashes every week, how many weeks will it take him to harvest at least 129 squashes?

Answers

Answer:

8.5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve, you can start by subtracting 61 from 129 because he has already picked 61.

129 - 61 = 68

then, just divide 68 by 8 to find how many weeks it will take him.

68/8 = 8.5

it will take Harry 8 and a half weeks to harvest at least 129 squashes.

Harry needs 9 weeks to harvest at least 129 squashes.

What are inequalities and their types?

Inequality is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way.

The symbol a < b indicates that a is smaller than b.

When a > b is used, it indicates that a is bigger than b.

a is less than or equal to b when a notation like a ≤ b.

a is bigger or equal value of an is indicated by the notation a ≥ b.

Let, The number of weeks it will take Harry to harvest at least 129 squashes be 'w'.

Therefore, The inequality that represents the given situation is,

8w + 61 > 129.

8w > 68.

w > 68/8.

w > 8.5.

So, It will take him at least 9 weeks.
