5(x-1)=23 solve the equation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 28/5    or 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-1) = 23        Distribute on the left side

5x - 5 = 23        Add 5 to both sides

    +5      +5

5x = 28       Divide both sides by 5

x = 28/5

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 28/5

General Formulas and Concepts:

Equality Properties

Multiplication Property of Equality Division Property of Equality Addition Property of Equality Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

5(x - 1) = 23

Step 2: Solve for x

Divide 5 on both sides:                    x - 1 = 23/5Add 1 to both sides:                          x = 28/5

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                     5(28/5 - 1) = 23(Parenthesis) Subtract:        5(23/5) = 23Multiply:                                23 = 23

Here we see that 23 does indeed equal 23.

∴ x = 28/5 is the solution to the equation.

8 people take up one table and 104/13=8

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf Option \ 3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 8t

Where p is the no. of people and t is the no. of tables.

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

So, If t = 22, then:

p = 8 (22)

p = 176  (Makes the first option incorrect)

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

If t = 8 , then:

p = 8 (8)

p = 64 (Makes the second option incorrect)

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

If t = 13, then:

p = 8 (13)

10% is equal to 10/100, so it will be:

10/100x = 45

What is a graph?

The set of ordered pairings (x, y) where f(x) = y makes up the graph of a function.

These pairs are Cartesian coordinates of points in two-dimensional space and so constitute a subset of this plane in the general case when f(x) are real values.

5. The graph of this function is constant for all values of x, y = 3.

6. The graph of this function has points (0, 3) and (3, 2).

m = (2 - 0)/(3 - 0).

m = 2/3.

2 = (2/3)×3 + b.

2 = 2 + b.

b = 0.

y = (2/3)x.

7. The graph of this function has points (0, 1) and (3, 2).

m = (2 - 0)/(3 - 1).

m = 2/2.

m = 1.

2 = 1(3) + b.

2 = 3 + b.

b = -1.

y = x - 1.

8. The graph of this function has points (- 3, 0) and (0, 3).

m = (3 - 0)/(0 + 3).

m = 1.

3 = 1(0) + b.

b = 3.

y = x + 3.

9. The graph of this function is a vertical line parallel to the y-axis,

x = 3.

10. The graph of this function has points (0, 0) and (- 1, 3).

m = (3 - 0)/(- 1 - 0).

m = 3/ - 1.

m = - 3.

0 = - 3(0) + b.

b = 0.

y = - 3x.

The smallest angle is 35°

Work out out angles a,b and ,

Answers

Answer:

Angle A =35 degrees, Angle B = 90 degrees, and Angle C = 55 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So all the angles added up would be 180. Let's use the variable x. The angles would be 7x, 18x, and 11x.

The smallest angle is 35, and 7x is the smallest out of all them since x has to be positive.

7x = 35

x = 5

Then substitute x into each angle.

They would be 35 degrees, 90 degrees, and 55 degrees

If r= 1 and 0 = 5 pie/4, what is the approximate arc length?
A. 1.25 units
B. 4.189 units
C. 3.927 units
D. 3.665 units

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C.  3.927 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length (s) is given by ...

  s = r·θ

  s = 1·5π/4 ≈ 3.92699

  s ≈ 3.927 . . . units

The length of the given arc is 3.927 units, so the correct option is C.

How to get the arc length?

For an arc in a circle of radius R, defined by an angle θ, the length is:

L = θ*R

In this case, we have:

R = 1 unit.

θ= (5/4)pi

Where pi = 3.14159

Replacing that in the length equation we get:

L = (5/4)*3.14159*(1 unit) = 3.927 units.

So the correct option is C.

Can someone summarize this article into two to three paragraphs?- A former Zanesville police sergeant was convicted of a felony and misdemeanor in Licking Country after he admitted to driving under the influence and having a weapon in the vehicle in a February 2020 shooting incident along Ohio 16. Jarred A Miracle, 40 of Zanesville, pleaded guilty to one count each improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle, a fourth-degree felony, and operating a vehicle while under the influence, a first-degree misdemeanor. According to Assistant Licking County Prosecutor Eric Depue, on Feb. 1, Licking County Law enforcement responded to reports of someone firing a weapon out of a moving vehicle on Ohio 16 eastbound near Marne Road in Newark. The vehicle was determined to be a 2015 Ford Fusion.Depue said Miracle was identified as the driver of the vehicle and the front seat passenger was identified as Charles Lewis, 35, of Gnaddenhutten, a Zanesville police officer who was on medical leave at the time of the incident.Former Zanesville Public Safety Director Kean Toney previously said in an email he learned through Zanesville Police Chief Tony Coury that Miracle gave his written registration with a 72-hour notice on Sept. 17, 2019, five months before the shooting incident. Toney wrote that a 72-hour notice is "not the manner in which to leave employment," A personnel action form found in Miracle's file shows his employment was terminated the following day.Depue said both Miracle and Lewis appeared to be under the influence of alcohol when stopped in Muskingum County. The prosecutor said officers located two firearms in the vehicle- an AR-15 owned by Miracle and a Glock 48.380 caliber owned by Lewis. According to Depue, the Glock was located in the driver's door panel and was loaded. He said the AR- 15 was on the passenger seat.Police reported recovering numerous .223 shell casing from inside the vehicle. Depue noted one round appeared to have been ejected into the windshield, as evidence by a crack.Depue said Lewis and Miracle were taken into custody in Muskingum County. He noted Miracle did not have a valid concealed carry permit at the time of the incident.During a court hearing on Monday morning in Licking County Common Pleas Court, Judge David Branstool denied a motion that Miracle be considered for intervention in lieu of conviction. He cited Miracle was not eligible, nor suitable, for the program.Defense attorney Derrick Moorehead said his client disputed the allegation the AR-15 was found in the front of the vehicle, saying the firearm was actually located in the rear of the vehicle.Moorehead requested Miracle be considered for community control, noting recidivism was unlikely the case. He also noted he filed a petition for driving privileges on behalf of his client. Moorehead asked Branstool to consider that aside from the shooting incident, his client was a productive citizen for his whole life.Branstool ordered Miracle to complete three years of community control, along with chemical dependency supervision, 40 hours of community service, and a 72- hour driver intervention program. The judge also imposed a $1,500 fine, court costs, and a one-year driver's license suspension. According to Licking County court records, Lewis is charged with one count each discharge of a firearm on prohibited premises, a third-degree felony; improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle, a fourth-degree felony; and using weapons while intoxicated, a first- degree misdemeanor.
