4x - 2(x - 2) = -9 + 5x - 8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer is x = 7

Step by step

4x -2(x - 2) = -9 +5x -8
Distribute

4x -2x +4 = -9 +5x -8
Combine

2x + 4 = 5x -17

Subtract 5x from both sides to isolate variable

2x -5x +4 = 5x -5x -17
Combine

-3x +4 = -17

Subtract 4 from both sides to combine constants

-3x +4 -4 = -17 -4
Combine

-3x = -21

Divide both sides by -3 to solve

-3/-3 x = -21/-3

x = 7

Write an exponential growth function to model each situation,
15. Initial value: 20
Growth factor: 1.25

Answers

Answer: f(x)=20(1.0125)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula P(1+r)^t when considering exponential growth (make it 1-r if decay)

P - principal (initial) value

r - growth rate (as a decimal! so divide by 100)

t - time (can be years, months, days, etc)

so now that we know the formula, just plug in everything you know!

P=20, r=0.0125, t=x

so the function is

20(1+0.0125)^t or 20(1.0125)^t

since we dont have a defined time, that becomes the variable for x, the one we can manipulate, so if they ask for 10 years, just replace t with 10!

What are the coordinates of point D(4/7, 3 1/3) after it reflected across the x-axis

Answers

Answer:it’s 4 units to the left

Step-by-step explanation: The point (4,3) reflected the x-axis,

=> The x remains the same, the y flips over the x-axis to be negative

     (4,3) ==>> (4,-3)

The point (-3,-8) is reflected in the y-axis.

=> The y remains the same, the x flips over the y axis to be negative

     (-3,-8)==>>(3,-8)

The point (2,4) is reflected in the line x = -3.

=> The x remains the same, the y flips over the x= -3 line.

     Instead of reflecting over the x-axis (or the x = 0) line

     and just being +4 or 4 above the x-axis to -4 or 4 below the x-axis-axis-axis

     you have +4 being 7 above the x= -3 line so you need

     7 below the x= -3 line or -10  SO

      (2,4)==>>(2,-10)

The point (a, b) is reflected in the line y = x

     Consider that the line x=y is a 45-degree diagonal.

     Imagine a point on the 45-degree at +3  i.e. (3,0)

     Imagine a line perpendicular to x=y from the point (3,0)

           (sorry there is no way to draw on here - try drawing it)

    The line would hit the x-axis-axis at (0,3)

    So you can see the x becomes y and y become x.

     (a,b)==>>(b,a)

For

ΔXYZ is defined by its vertices X(1,3), Y(-3,5), and Z(0, -5).

       ΔXYZ is reflected in the y-axis.

So for each of the 3 points X, Y, and Z reflect about

       the y-axis the same way in the second example above

       and you will have the 3 new points X’,  Y', and Z’

The translation T: (x, y) → (x -2, y + 4) maps the point (2, -3) to

The translation T: (x, y) → (x + 3, y - 2) maps the point (-4, -3) to

     What you need to do here is just plug the values for X and Y into the translation.

     e.g. for T: (x, y) → (x -2, y + 4)  plug (2,-3) of x=2 y=-3 into (x -2, y + 4) and get the new values.

Part B:

Part A & B explanation:

If you notice, there are no decimals in the answers so it's clear they round them. 8.4 rounded is 8 & 6.9 rounded is 7. To find the area of a singular rectangle is length x width. 8 x 7 = 56. In part A the directions say "best estimate" signaling that it isn't the exact answer you're looking for. 8 x 7 = 56; 56 x 9 = 504 would be the exact answer. (Answer for part b).Therefore, the answer for part A is 8 x 7 = 56; 56 x 10 = 560. Because 560 is the closest to 504 on the board.

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is a mathematical statement written in the form of numbers and unknown variables. We can form numerical expressions from statements.

Given, John’s age is 12 more than 2 times Sam’s age. The sum of their ages is 65.

Let, The age of Sam be 'x'.

Therefore, 2x + 12 + x = 65.

3x = 53.

x = 17.66.

So, Sam is 17.66 years old and john is (65 - 17.66) = 47.34 years old.

y = 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write it in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

m = slope, which is 3

y = 3x + b

b = y-intercept, which is (-6)

y = 3x + (-6), BUT that's not the proper way to write it.

The proper way to write it would be y = 3x - 6

y= 3x - 6


3x is the slope and -6 is the y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to see how much it increases.

We would take 1.50, and minus 1.25 from it to get our first answer of .25.

To get the percentage of increase, we would take our .25, and times it by 100 equaling 25%.

On the last question it’s a .25 increase so it’s going to be 25% increase.
