Answer:

P = 0.5Q - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

P = kQ + c

substitute Q = 60 , P = 10 into the equation

10 = 60k + c → (1)

substitute Q = 240, P = 100 into the equation

100 = 240k + c → (2)

subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c

90 = 180k ( divide both sides by 180 )

\frac{90}{180} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 = k

substitute k = 0.5 into (1) and solve for c

10 = 60(0.5) + c

10 = 30 + c ( subtract 30 from both sides )

- 20 = c

then

P = 0.5Q - 20

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The correct options for the solution values are:

  • x=2\sqrt{2}-5
  • x=-2\sqrt{2}-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

x^2+10x+25=8

Subtract 25 from both sides

x^2+10x+25-25=8-25

Simplify

x^2+10x=-17

Add 25 or 5² to both sides

x^2+10x+5^2=8

as

x^2+10x+5^2=\left(x+5\right)^2

so the expression becomes

\left(x+5\right)^2=8

\mathrm{For\:}f^2\left(x\right)=a\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}

solve

x+5=\sqrt{8}

Subtract 5 from both sides

x+5-5=2\sqrt{2}-5

x=2\sqrt{2}-5

solve

x+5=-\sqrt{8}

Subtract 5 from both sides

x+5-5=-2\sqrt{2}-5

x=-2\sqrt{2}-5

Therefore, the solution to the equation

x=2\sqrt{2}-5,\:x=-2\sqrt{2}-5

Hence, the correct options for the solution values are:

  • x=2\sqrt{2}-5
  • x=-2\sqrt{2}-5

Find the slope of the line with the given equation. Show your work. 6x – 2y = 18
Sedbober [7]
1. Subtract 6x from both sides so now you have -2y = -6x + 18

2. Divide everything by -2, then you would have y = 3x - 9

3. The equation is now in slope intercept form so the answer is 3.

butalik [34]

we are given

A presidential candidate plans to begin her campaign by visiting the capitals in 4 of 47 states

so, the number of ways of selecting four specific capitals out of 47 states is

=47C_4

=\frac{47!}{4!(47-4)!}

=178365

now, we can find probability

so, the probability is

=\frac{1}{178365}..............Answer
