To solve, we must get x by itself. the first step we must take is to remove all of the parentheses. To do this, we must use distribution to multiply 5 by x - 6.

5(x - 6) = 3x - 18 + 2x

5x - 30 = 3x - 18 + 2x

Next, we must add like terms.

5x - 30 = 5x - 18

Finally, we must get x by itself. to do this, we must subtract 5x from both sides.

5x - 30 - 5x = 5x - 18 - 5x

Then, we add like terms again.

-30 = -18

Because this is a false statement, the equation is a contradiction.

F(x) = x+ + 3<br> g(x) = 4x - 3<br> Given the functions below find (f*g)(-1)
Mashutka [201]

(f×g)(-1) is -14.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Calculate (f×g)(x) by using the formula (f×g)(x) = f(x) × g(x)

⇒ (f×g)(x) = (x + 3)(4x - 3)

⇒ (f×g)(x) = 4x² - 3x + 12x - 9

⇒ (f×g)(x) = 4x² + 9x - 9

  • Step 2: Find (f×g)(-1) by substituting -1 in the place of x

⇒ (f×g)(-1) = 4(-1)² + 9(-1) - 9

⇒ (f×g)(-1) = 4 - 9 - 9 =-14

ΔJKL is dilated about the origin with a scale factor of 2/3. Which of the following is the image point of K(6,12)?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: (4,8) which is choice A

f = 2/3 is the scale factor

x = 6 and y = 12 pair up to get the coordinates for point K's location

multiply f by x and y to get the new location

f*x = (2/3)*6 = (2/3)*(6/1) = (2*6)/(3*1) = 12/3 = 4

f*y = (2/3)*12 = (2/3)*(12/1) = (2*12)/(3*1) = 24/3 = 8

The results we get are 4 and 8. So (6,12) moves to (4,8)

This scale factor 2/3 = 0.667 is less than 1, so the image is smaller compared to the pre-image.
