Solve For X.2(x - 1) - X + 3 = -1Anyone Wanna Help?

Answers

Answer 1
x=2
explanation:
simplify to get -3x+5=-1
calculate to get -3x= -1-5
-3x=-6
x=2
Answer 2

Answer:

-2(x-1) - x + 3 = -1

First if all, we operate the parenthesis knowing that [tex]a(b+c) = ab + ac[/tex]:

-2(x-1) - x + 3 = -1 ---->.-2x -2*(-1) - x + 3 = -1

Now, we operate:

.-2x -2*(-1) - x + 3 = -1 ----> -2x + 2 - x + 3 = -1

Now we operate another time to put all the x together and the independent terms too:

-2x + 2 - x + 3 = -1 ----> -3x + 5 = -1

We substract 5 at both sides to have only the x at one side:

-3x + 5 = -1 ----> -3x + 5 - 5 = -1 - 5 ----> -3x = -6

As both sides have a minus (-) we can eliminate it:

-3x = -6 ----> 3x = 6

We divide both sides by 3 to have only a x:

3x = 6 ----> 3x/3 = 6/3 ----> x = 2

Now, we know that x=2. We can also verify it by replacing it on the first equation:

-2(x-1) - x + 3 = -1 ---> -2(2-1) - 3 + 3 = -1 ---> -2(1) - 2 + 3 = -1 ---> -2 - 2 + 3 = -1

Now we know it's true, as we have replaced it and we got he answer.

You are preparing a case study on the dallas cowboys. You use many methods of data collection in creating the case study. Here is an excerpt: the dallas cowboys were formed in 1960 and have had seven head coaches since then. I surveyed 100 people and one of the questions was, who is your favorite coach of the dallas cowboys? Seventy people said tom landry, fifteen said jimmy johnson, five said bill parcells, and ten answered other. One of those who answered other was my brother. I asked him which coach was his favorite and he said, "barry switzer because he was the last one to win a championship." i knew he was kidding because he had a smirk on his face. The excerpt relays information gathered from questionnaires, interviews, observations, and historical data. Identify the information from the case study that was collected by each of the four methods.

Answers

Answer:

The information that was collected by each of the four methods is;

The participant's favorite coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each of the four methods listed, the question that stood out was the favorite coach of the Dallas Cowboys among the participants in the study.

Questionnaire: one of the questions was, who is your favorite coach of the Dallas cowboys?

Interview: I asked him which coach was his favorite

Observation: I knew he was kidding because he had a smirk on his face. This observation showed that Barry Switzer was not really his favorite coach.

Historical data:  I asked him which coach was his favorite and he said, "Barry Switzer because he was the last one to win a championship." This historical data shows that the reason why Barry Switzer was chosen as the researcher's favorite coach was that he was the last to win a championship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:  B) 89

========================================================

Work Shown:

The given list is {95, 89, 99, 85, 82, 81, 99}

Sort this list from smallest to largest.

We then have this: {81, 82, 85, 89, 95, 99, 99}

Next we will erase the first and last items in that sorted list above

Doing so leads to this smaller list: {82, 85, 89, 95, 99}

Repeat the step from before. Erase the first and last items

We now have {85, 89, 95}

One more time lets erase the first and last items getting {89}

This shows that 89 is the very center item

Going back to {81, 82, 85, 89, 95, 99, 99} we see that 89 is at the center with three items below it (81,82,85) and three items above it (95,99,99)

Therefore, the median is 89.

----------------------------------

Another route to take is to count the number of items in {81, 82, 85, 89, 95, 99, 99}. You should count 7 items.

Add 1 and divide by 2 to get (7+1)/2 = 8/2 = 4

The median is in slot 4, which is exactly where 89 is located in the list {81, 82, 85, 89, 95, 99, 99}

Note: this trick only works if you have an odd number of items in a set.

1. Alexis went shopping for school supplies with $80 in his bank account. He bought a bunch of binders for $23, pens and pencils for $16, and a new backpack for $37. Did Alexis have enough money to purchase all these supplies? -​

Answers

Answer: So alexis had $80 And he bought a bunch of binders for $23 So If you do the math you will get: $57 But then he buys pens and pencils for $16 So:

$57 - $16 = $41 And then he buys a new backpack for $37. So : $41 - $37 = $4

So yes he had enough to buy all the stuff and still had a little bit leftover!

Answer:

A. 63

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions:

    f(x) = 2x² + 5

    g(x) = 8 + x

find:

g o f(-5)

Solution:

Start first by finding f(-5);

       f(x) = 2x² + 5

              = 2(-5)² + 5

              = 50 + 5

              = 55

Now

g o f(-5);

     g(55) = 8 + 55 = 63

Hey :)

2m = −6n −5


Divide both sides by 2

m= -6n -5/ 2


Divide −6n−5 by 2
m= -3n -5/2

What is mathematical equation?

Equation is defined as the state of being equal and is often shown as a math expression with equal values on either side, or refers to a problem where many things need to be taken into account. An example of an equation is 2+2 = 3+1.

In the given equation,

2m = −6n −5

Divide by 2 on both sides, we get

2m/2 = −6n/2 −5/2

m = -3n - 5/2

Therefore, our value of m is in terms of n, which is -3n - 5/2
