we need to isolate x
first solve the parenthesis
[tex]5x+15=2x-3[/tex]now solve x
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x-2x=-3-15 \\ 3x=-18 \\ x=-\frac{18}{3} \\ x=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]the value of x is -6
Solve this system of equations byusing the elimination method.3x + 3y = 182x + y = 4( [?]. []).
Given the system of equations:
3x + 3y = 18
2x + y = 4
Let's solve the system of equations using the elimination method.
Multiply one equation by a number which makes one variable of each equation opposite.
Multiply equation 2 by -3:
3x + 3y = 18
-3(2x + y) = -3(4)
3x + 3y = 18
-6x - 3y = -12
Add both equations:
3x + 3y = 18
+ -6x - 3y = -12
_________________
-3x = 6
Divide both sides by -3:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{6}{-3} \\ \\ x=-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute -2 for x in either of the equations.
Take the second equation:
2x + y = 4
2(-2) + y = 4
-4 + y = 4
Add 4 to both sides:
-4 + 4 + y = 4 + 4
y = 8
Therefore, we have the solutions:
x = -2, y = 8
In point form, we have the solution:
(x, y) ==> (-2, 8)
ANSWER:
(-2, 8)
FACTS:In 2010, the glacier was 1000 meters in length; it had retreated 255 meters in 15 years.Questions:1. Calculate the average annual rate of retreat of the glacier
Let's represent the given (length, years) as (x, y)
at time 0 year, the glacier is 1000 meters
at time 15 years, the glacier retreated 255 meters and that's 1000 - 255 = 745
so we have the points (0, 1000) and (15, 745)
Using the slope formula :
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1_{}}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]where m represents the average annual rate of retreat.
[tex]m=\frac{745-1000}{15-0}=\frac{-255}{15}=-17[/tex]The average annual rate of retreat of the glacier is 17 meters per year
You have one type of chocolate that sells for $5.00/lb and another type of chocolate that sells for $7.60/lb. You would like to have 10.4 lbs of a chocolate mixture that sells for $6.50/lb. How much of each chocolate will you need to obtain the desired mixture? You will need BLANK lbs of the cheaper chocolate and BLANK lbs of the expensive chocolate.Please help!! It is urgent.
Answer
You will need 4.4 lbs of the cheaper chocolate and 6 lbs of the expensive chocolate.
Explanation
Let the amount to be made of the type of chocolate (cheaper chocolate) that sells for $5.00/lb be x pounds.
Let the amount to be made of the type of chocolate (expensive chocolate) that sells for $7.60/lb be y pounds.
We would like to make a chocolate mixture that weighs 10.4 lbs. That is,
x + y = 10.4 .......... equation 1
This chocolate mixture is supposed to cost $6.50/lb and weigh 10.4 lbs. Hence, the cost of 10.4 lbs of this chocolate mixture will be
= 6.50 × 10.4 = $67.6
The cost of x pounds of the $5.00/lb = x × 5 = 5x dollars
The cost of y pounds of the $7.60/lb = y × 7.60 = 7.6y dollars
The cost of the two types of chocolate have to amount to $67.6
5x + 7.6y = 67.6 .......... equation 2
Writing the two equations together
x + y = 10.4
5x + 7.6y = 67.6
This simultaneous equation is then solved and the solution obtained is
x = 4.4 pounds and y = 6 pounds.
Hope this Helps!!!

Write an equation and graph the cosine function with amplitude 3 and period 4 pi.
An equation and graph the cosine function with amplitude 3 and period 4 pi is y is 3cos([tex]\frac{1}{2} x[/tex])
How to write an equation ?
The general form for the cosine function is:
y = A cos(Bx+C)+D
The amplitude is:
|A|
The period is:
P = 2π/B
The phase shift is
ϕ = −C/B
The vertical shift is D
Explanation:
Given:
The amplitude is 3:
|A|=3
The above implies that A could be either positive or negative but we always choose the positive value because the negative value introduces a phase shift:
A=3
Given:
The period is
P = 4π
4π =2π/B
B = 1/2
Nothing is said about the phase shift and the vertical shift, therefore, we shall assume that
C and D are 0.
Substitute these values into the general form:
y = 3cos([tex]\frac{1}{2} x[/tex])

A candle is 4 inches tall and burns at the rate of 0.6 inch per hour. If the height of the candle after x hours is 1.5 inches, write an equation to represent the situation. Then use this equation to find the expected number of hours in which the candle melted to 1.5 inches.I think the way to start this is x = 1.5 inches but I'm stuck.
Given the following question:

How many general tickets should the college sell to maximize revenue
Notice that, since 5000 tickets are reserved for students, there are 13000 available tickets that can be acquired by students or the general public.
Since the cost of a general public ticket is greater than that of a student ticket, we can increase the revenue to its maximum by selling the remaining 13000 tickets to the general public only.
Therefore, the answer is 13,000

hi! i was wondering how to find the volume of a figure?
Answer: Volume of solid = 700 ft^3
Explanation:
The solid figure can be sectioned into 2 parts; a rectangular prism and a triangular prism.
Considering the rectangular prism, the formula for calculating the volume is
Volume = length x width x height
From the diagram,
length 10
height = 10
width = 5
Volume of rectangular prism = 10 x 10 x 5 = 500
Considering the triangular prism, the formula for calculating the volume is
Volume = base area x length
The base is a triangle
Area of triangle = 1/2 base x height
From the diagram,
base = 10
height = 8
Base area = 1/2 x 10 x 8 = 40
Length = 5
Volume of triangular prism = 40 x 5 = 200
Thus,
Volume of solid = 500 + 200
Volume of solid = 700 ft^3

the answer is the option AThe measure of angle 1 is greater than 97 degrees and at most 115. Graph the possible values of x.
We are given the following:
Angle 1 is greater than 97 degrees and at most 115 degrees
The angle alternate to angle 1 is "(9x +7)"; alternate angles are congruent
Using the information above, we will develop the inequality shown below:

descent. (1 mile 5280 feet).
The slope is
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
[tex]-0.14[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is defined as the change in [tex]y[/tex] divided by the change in [tex]x[/tex].
The change in [tex]y[/tex] is a decrease of 3,300 feet.
The change in [tex]x[/tex] is an increase of 4.5 miles. Converting to feet so that both measurements are in identical units:
[tex]\frac{4.5\text{ mi}}{1}\times\frac{5280\text{ ft}}{1\text{ mi}}=23760\text{ ft}[/tex]
Therefore, the slope is:
[tex]\frac{\Delta{y}}{\Delta{x}}=\frac{-3300}{23760}=-\frac{5}{36}[/tex]
As a decimal rounded to two places:
[tex]-\frac{5}{36}\approx{-0.14}[/tex]

We have 20 equally probable events in the table. So, each box has probability equal to 1/20.
With this in mind, we must find the numbers 3 and 4 in each box. Then, we can see that there are 12 boxes containing these numbers. Therefore, the probability to catch a bass is

The bakery will soon makeback the amount it invested in equipment. What would the total expenses and receipts bothequal?TimeelapsedWrite a system of equations, graph them, and type the solution1.000SmartScore
Hello there. To solve this question, let's call the average hourly operating costs as C and the average hourly receipts as R.
We get that 90R - 10C = 800, since this is the amount the bakery has spent on equipments and it is said he will soon get back this invested money.
Dividing both sides by 10, we get 9R-C = 80
The graph will be a line. We want to find then C = R, so we can get:
-R + 9R = 80
8R = 80
R = 10
So, we have a cost of $100 and receipt of $900 in order to get back that money.
