Is x = 17 a solution to the equation x + 15 = 42?

guys plz help me :(​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 15 = 42

Subtract 15 from each side

x + 15-15 = 42-15

x = 27

x = 17 is not 27 so it is not a solution

Answer 2

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you substitute 17 in for x in the equation you get 17+15=42.  Simplify to get 32=42.  This is not a true statement, so x=17 is not the answer.

Write the polynomial which represents the perimeter of a triangle whose sides are represented
by 2x² + 3x, 5x²-1, and 3x² + 7x-1.

Answers

Answer:

The polynomial is 10x^2 + 10x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the polynomial which represents the perimeter, what we need to do is to add up all

these values. We use the formula for finding the perimeter of a triangle and that involves adding up all the three sides. That would be;

2x^2 + 3x + 5x^2 -1 + 3x^2 + 7x -1

10x^2 + 3x -1 + 7x -1

10x^2 + 10x -2

You roll a twelve-sided die (having values one through twelve on its faces). What is the probability that the value of the roll will be a composite number?

show work pls!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling a 4: Rolling a 4 is an event with 1 favorable outcome (a roll of 4) and the total number of possible outcomes is 6 (a roll of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6). Thus, the probability of rolling a 4 is .

If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling at least a 4: Rolling at least 4 is an event with 3 favorable outcomes (a roll of 4, 5, or 6) and the total number of possible outcomes is again 6. Thus, the probability of rolling at least a 4 is = .

Point D is located on the segment CE. IF CD = 24 and DE = x and CE - 5x, what is the measure of segment CE?

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

If point D is located on the segment CE, then point C, D and E lies on the same line i.e they are collinear. Mathematically, CD+DE = CE

Given CD = 24 and DE = x and CE = 5x, on substituting this values in the equation we have;

[tex]24+x = 5x\\5x-x = 24\\4x = 24\\x = 24/4\\x = 6[/tex]

Since CE = 5x, CE = 5(6) = 30

The measure of segment CE is 30

what is the sign of -a^4/3 when a is less than zero

A positive

B negative

C zero

Answers

Answer: B. Negative

Reasoning:

'a' is less than 0, so we write a < 0

Since a < 0, this means a^4 > 0. Raising a negative to an even exponent will make the result positive. Example: (-2)^4 = 16

Applying the cube root to some positive number leads to some other positive number.

So far we see that the expression    a^(4/3)   is positive

The final result however is negative because the negative out front flips things from positive to negative.

It turns out it doesn't matter if 'a' is positive or negative. As long as 'a' is nonzero, then   -a^(4/3)   is negative. If a = 0, then the whole thing is 0.

Graph the solution of this inequality:

Answers

Unfortunatly brainly does not provide me with graphics support.

First thing to realise is that we are dealing with inequality which essentially means that the solution will be an interval or more specifically a possibly constrained set of value.

Here is the inequality:

If we subtract 125 and then divide by 15 on both sides we get:

r > 15

Fraction of fruit that is pineapple

Simplifying

1/9

Answer:

1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, add all of the known fruit amounts in order to find the total amount of fruit.

9 bananas +7 mangoes + 2 pineapples

When you do this, you find that the total fruit is 18

In order to know probability, you must divide the desirable outcome by the total possible outcomes.

The desirable outcome is pineapple. There are 2 pineapples. The total possible outcomes are 18.

2/18

You can simplify this fraction so that it becomes 1/9 by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 2

How many adults and children need to buy a plate in order for them to exactly meet their
goal?​

Answers

Answer: 60 kids, 180 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children and y be the number of adults eating.

If they have 240 people eating then x+y=240.

If they have to fundraise 1200 then 2x+6y=1200.

Solving the system of equations, we can multiply the first equation by 2 to get 2x+2y=480. Then subtract the two equations and get -4y=-720, so y=180. Substitute y=180 back in to get x=60.

For a) it only tells you all the angles, which makes them similar triangles, but none of the sides are given, so it cannot be determined whether they are congruent.

For b) it is not to scale and using a little subtraction, you can quickly use the fact that there are 180 degrees in a triangle, you can determine that the 2 triangles have the same angles, with the side with 9.2 cm between 58 and 68 degree vertices on both triangles, making the 2 triangles congruent by ASA.

complete the square to solve the equation below (check all that apply)

Answers

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to create a perfect square. To make x^2+bx+c into a perfect square, c has to be (b/2)^2. In this case, b is -10. so, c has to be (-10/2)^2, which is 25. To make the left hand side 25, we would have to add 30 to both sides.

This leads to a new equation:

x^2 - 10x + 25 = 9+30

x^2 - 10x + 25 = 39

Now, we can change the left hand side to a perfect square.

(x-5)^2 = 39. (the -5 is b/2)

Then we square root both sides;

x-5 = +/- sqrt39. (When you square root an expression, remember that you need to include both the positive AND negative)

x = 5-sqrt39 or 5+sqrt39
