Answer:

b.) Subtracting 5 then dividing both sides by -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

⇒ -2x + 5 = 9

To solve this equation, first we need to remove the 5 on the left side. Then divide both sides by -2.

When done so:

⇒ -2x = 9 - 5

⇒ -2x = 4

⇒ -2x/-2 = 4/-2

⇒ x = -2

a student worked out at the gym continuously for 50 minutes. The graph shows the remaining percentage of the workout f(x) as a l
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Domain: All real numbers greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 50

Range: All real numbers greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 100

Step-by-step explanation

The workout is at 100% at 50 mins. Anything less would be under these two numbers.  Since the percentage of workout is on the y-axis, anything between zero and 100 can be possible. The time is on the x-axis, so anything 0 to 50 can be possible.

If ΔABC is reflected across the y-axis, what are the resulting coordinates for points A', B', and C'
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the y axis changes the x value.

Reflection across the x axis changes the y value.

This is counterintuitive, but it is correct.

A'

(-1,6)

B'

(-2,1)

C'

(-5,2)

Do you see what happened. All the values for x become - values because you are moving an equal distance in the -x direction

Answer:

<em>(8.21, -20.79)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation;

\frac{a}{b} - \frac{b}{2} = 10\\a - b = 29

From 2;

a = 29 + b ....3

Substitute 3 into 1;

\frac{29+b}{b} - \frac{b}{2}  = 10\\\frac{2(29+b)-b^2}{2b} = 10\\\frac{58+2b-b^2}{2b} = 10\\58+2b-b^2 = 20b\\b^2-2b-58 = -20b\\b^2-2b+20b -58 = 0\\b^2+18b-58 = 0\\

Factorize

b = -18±√18²-4(-58)/2

b = -18±√324+232/2

b = -18±√556/2

b = -18±23.58/2

b = -18-23.58/2 and -18+23.58/2

b = -41.58/2 and 5.58/2

b = -20.79 and 2.79

Since a = 29 + b

when b = -20.79

a = 29 - 20.79

a = 8.21

<em>Hence the solution to the system of equation is (8.21, -20.79)</em>

Find the distance between (-8,7) and (13,-1)​
grin007 [14]

Answer:

22.4722

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we need to use the distance formula. The distance formula is as follows:

d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2+(y2 - y1)^2}

Now, let's identify what each variable is:

x2 = 13

x1 = -8

y2 = -1

y1 = 7

Next, let's put these into the equation:

d = \sqrt{(13 - (-8))^2 + (-1 -7)^2}

Time to solve the equation:

d = \sqrt{(21)^2+(-8)^2} \\d = \sqrt{441 + 64} \\d = \sqrt{505} \\d = 22.4722

Therefore, the distance between the points of (-8,7) and (13,1) is 22.4722.
