57 = -8x – 7 helpppppp

Answers

57 = -8x - 7

Add 7 to both sides:

64 = -8x

Divide both sides by -8:

X = 64/-8

X = -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

57 = -8x - 7

+7           +7

64 = -8x

64/-8

x = -8

Check:

57 = -8(-8) - 7

57 = 64 - 7

57 = 57

Find the missing side b.
A. 16.1
B. 19.7
C. 26
D. 13

Answers

Answer: A . 16.1

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure we have a right triangle in which one of the leg's length is missing.

  • Pythagoras theorem of right triangles says that the square of hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the two legs.

For the given triangle , we have(18)^2=b^2+8^2

i.e. \Rightarrow\ 324=b^2+64

i.e. \Rightarrow\ b^2=324-64

i.e. \Rightarrow\ b^2=260

i.e. \Rightarrow\ b=√(260)=16.1245154966approx16.1

Hence, the missing side = 16.1 units

16.1. Solve by using the Pythagorean Theorm. b squared+8 squared= 18 squared. b squared+64=324. Subtract 64 from both sides to get b squared=260. Square root 260 to get 16.1

When (0.2)^4 is written as a decimal, what is the product of the last two digits?

Answers

0.2^4  = 0.2*0.2*0.2*0.2  = 0.04 * 0.04  = 0.0016

Product of last 2 digits = 1*6  = 6
As a decimal it would be 0.0016000000000000005.
