To find:
The error and correct solution.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]-5x-16=8[/tex]
Add 16 on both sides.
[tex]-5x-16+16=8+16[/tex]
[tex]-5x=24[/tex]
Divide both sides by -5.
[tex]\dfrac{-5x}{-5}=\dfrac{24}{-5}[/tex]
[tex]x=-\dfrac{24}{5}[/tex]
Third step is incorrect because he divide the equation by 5 instead of -5.
Therefore, the correct solution is [tex]x=-\dfrac{24}{5}[/tex].

What is the value of p in the equation shown?
3
p =-0.027
Answer:
According to the question,
3p=-0.027
By transposing '3' to the RHS, we get
p=0.027/3
= p=-0.009
So in this question p=-0.009

Janelle would like to give a party bag to every person who is coming to her party. The cost of the party bag is $7 per person. Write an inequality that describes the number of people P that she can invite if Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags.
Answer: Inequality that describes the number of people P that she can invite if Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags: 7P ≤ 95
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The cost of the party bag is $7 per person.
P represents the number of people that she can invite.
Total cost for P people = ( cost per person) x (P)
=$ 7P (i)
If Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags.
That means , Total cost ≤ $ 95
From (i)
7P ≤ 95 , which is the required inequality.

find the value of the height of the tree.
Answer:
20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
First we must find out what the scale factor is.
26 / 6.5 = 4
the scale factor is 4.
Now we must multiply 5 by 4 to find x.
5 * 4 = x
20 = x
x = 20
The height of the tree is 20 ft.
Please help, this is my first time! Here is the question: Maria earned a total of $504 the last two days. She worked 8 hours the first day, 4 hours the second day. How much did Maria earn every hour? Please show how you did it, this is my first time, so please help.
Answer:
$42 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Well,
She got $504 in total
8 + 4 = 12 (the total number of hours worked)
To find out how much she earned per hour you'll need to divide.
$504 ÷ 12
which equals $42
Answer:
Maria earned $42 per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to add the total amount of hours she worked.
8 + 4 = 12
Next, we need to divide 504 and 12 to see how much she earned per hour.
504 ÷ 12 = 42.
So, Maria earned $42 per hour.

6(x – 1) = 9(x + 2)
Solve
Answer:
x=−8
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x−1)=9(x+2)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6(x−1)=9(x+2)
(6)(x)+(6)(−1)=(9)(x)+(9)(2)(Distribute)
6x+−6=9x+18
6x−6=9x+18
Step 2: Subtract 9x from both sides.
6x−6−9x=9x+18−9x
−3x−6=18
Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.
−3x−6+6=18+6
−3x=24
Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.
−3x/−3=24/−3

Step-by-step explanation:
First I would distribute what I can...
[tex]6(2x+4)2=(2x+4)+2\\24x+48=2x+4+2[/tex]
Now we combine like terms...
[tex]24x+48=2x+6[/tex]
Subtract 2x from both sides...
[tex]22x+48=6[/tex]
Subtract 48 from both sides...
[tex]22x=-42[/tex]
Divide both sides by 22...
[tex]x=-\frac{21}{11}[/tex]
So the answer is [tex]-\frac{21}{11}[/tex]

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6,4) and (4,1)
First, you find the slope.
This is done by plugging in to the equation y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
Let 6 and 4 by x2 and y2 and 4 and 1 be x1 and y1.
4-1 / 6-4 = 3/2
The slope is 3/2.
Now, y = 3/2 x +b
To solve for b, plug in a point.
I plugged in (6, 4)
4 = 3/2(6) + b
4 = 9 + b
-5 = b
So, the equation is y = 3/2 x - 5
Hope this helps
[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} x - 5[/tex]

A bus and a truck leave a gas station at the same time and are headed to the same destination. If the bus traveled 110 miles in 2 hours, and the truck traveled 180 miles in 3 hours, who is on pace to reach the destination first?
Answer:
The truck is on pace.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find which truck will arrive first, you need to find each vehicle's mph. To get the mph of each vehicle you just need to divide the distance by time.
Bus: 110 (miles) ÷ 2 (hours) = 55 (miles per hour)
Truck: 180 (miles) ÷ 3 (hours) = 60 (miles per hour)
When you do this you can see the mph of the bus is < the mph of the truck.

Joe went to a baseball game. The game started at 10:47 AM, and it was 3 hours 31 minutes long. When did the game end?
Answer:
2:18 PM
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the answer because:
1) First, count 3 hours from 10:47 AM. 10:47 - 11:47, 11:47 - 12:47, 12:47 - 1:47. We will end up with 1:47 PM.
2) Next, just add 31 minutes. In order to get 2:00 PM, we have to add 13 minutes, therefore, subtract 13 from 31, this is 18.
3) Finally, add 18 to 2:00, which is just 2:18 PM.
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
2:18 PM
Step-by-step explanation:
You would start at 10:47 AM, then 3 hours and 31 minutes would pass by. The way I solved this was but adding the hours (10 + 3) and minutes (47 + 31) separatley. You would end up with 13 and 78. You would want to subtract 78 by 60 because 78 is higher than an hour, after that you would end up with 18 and 13:00 is 1:00 PM/AM and you just subtracted 60 from 78 so you would add 1 more hour to 1:00 PM so you would get 2:00 PM. After that, you would end up with 2:18 PM.
for the graph of g(x) pictured below, over which of the following intervals is g(x) only decreasing?
Answer:
2. -8 < x < -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-values of the line where the line slants downwards before it begins to slant upwards to the right, is the interval at which g(x) is decreasing only.
From the graph, at x = -8, y = -2. When x = -2, y = -5.
Between the intervals of x = -8 and x = -2, g(x) decreased from -2 to -5.
Therefore, the answer is: 2. -8 < x < -2

4. Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (-8, 2) and is parallel to the
line 3x – 2y = 12.
Answer:
3x - 2y = - 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
3x - 2y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 2y = - 3x + 12 ( divide all terms by - 2 )
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 6 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 8, 2) into the partial equation
2 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 12 = 14
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 14 ← equation in slope- intercept form
Multiply through by 2
2y = 3x + 28 ( subtract 2y from both sides )
0 = 3x - 2y + 28 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
- 28 = 3x - 2y , that is
3x - 2y = - 28 ← equation in standard form

Look at the triangle show on the right. The Pythagorean Theorem states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Margaret uses this theorem to simplify and rewrite the expression (b/r)^2 + (a/r)^2 using the triangle shown. Which trigonometric identity can she prove with her expression? *
Answer:
[tex]cos^2\theta + sin^2\theta = 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex](\frac{b}{r})^2 + (\frac{a}{r})^2[/tex]
Required
Use the expression to prove a trigonometry identity
The given expression is not complete until it is written as:
[tex](\frac{b}{r})^2 + (\frac{a}{r})^2 = (\frac{r}{r})^2[/tex]
Going by the Pythagoras theorem, we can assume the following.
a = Oppositeb = Adjacentr = HypothenuseSo, we have:
[tex]Sin\theta = \frac{a}{r}[/tex]
[tex]Cos\theta = \frac{b}{r}[/tex]
Having said that:
The expression can be further simplified as:
[tex](\frac{b}{r})^2 + (\frac{a}{r})^2 = 1[/tex]
Substitute values for sin and cos
[tex](\frac{b}{r})^2 + (\frac{a}{r})^2 = 1[/tex] becomes
[tex]cos^2\theta + sin^2\theta = 1[/tex]
Triangle ABC is translated 4 units down and 6 units right, resulting in triangle A'B'C'.
What are the coordinates of the point B'?
A. (-6,7)
B. (-1,6)
C. (4, -3)
D. (6,-1)
Answer:
The new coordinate of B' will be ( -1, 6)
The translated coordinate of the point B' will be (-1,6).
What is translation?The process of changing the location of the image on the coordinate system will be known as the translation.
A coordinate plane is a 2D plane that is formed by the intersection of two perpendicular lines known as the x-axis and y-axis. A coordinate system in geometry is a method for determining the positions of the points by using one or more numbers or coordinates.
Given that the coordinates of point B of the triangle are (1,6). The translated coordinates will be,
B = ( 3, 0 )
Translated 4 units down and 6 units right,
B' = ( 3 - 4 , 0 + 6 )
B' = ( -1, 6 )

What is the solution to the system of equations?
Answer:
(2, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + 2y = - 6 → (1)
3x + y = 2 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in y
- 6x - 2y = - 4 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 5x = - 10 ( divide both sides by - 5 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
2 + 2y = - 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2y = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = - 4
Solution is (2, - 4 )
