Answer:

  6 +7x

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an English expression as an algebraic one, you must first understand what the English is telling you. Then the translation is straightforward.

<h3>Algebraic representation</h3>

A plus sign (+) signifies addition. Multiplication is signified several different ways. The simplest is writing the factors next to each other.

<h3>Parsing the English</h3>

The objects involved in the addition are 6 and a product:

  6 + product

The product is said to consist of two factors: 7 and "a number". The instructions say to use "x" for "a number", so the product can be written ...

  7x

<h3>Algebraic expression</h3>

Then the complete algebraic expression is ...

  6 +7x

What is the correct answer? ​
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

C)   (-3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5/3x + 4

  When x = 0, y = 4

  When y = 0, x = -2.4

  graph the points: (0, 4) and (-2.4, 0)

y = -2/3x - 3

  When x = 0, y = -3

  When y = 0, x = -4.5

  graph the points: (0, -3) and (-4.5, 0)

The lines will cross at point: (-3, -1)

A man standing near a building notices trhat the angle of elevation to the top of the buiilding is 64. he then walks 240 feet fa
trasher [3.6K]
See the picture attached to better understand the problem
 we know that
in the right triangle ABC
tan 64°=AB/AC------> AB=AC*tan 64°-----> AB=x*tan 64°---> equation 1

in the right triangle ABD
tan 43°=AB/DA----> AB=DA*tan 43°---> AB=(240+x)*tan 43°---> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2
x*tan 64°-=(240+x)*tan 43°---->x*tan 64=240*tan 43+x*tan 43
x*[tan 64-tan 43]=240*tan 43-----> x=240*tan 43/[tan 64-tan 43]
x=200.22 ft

AB=x*tan 64----> AB=200.22*tan 64-----> AB=410.51 ft

the answer is
410.51 ft

2x^2-3x-9 please help
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Im assuming you mean 2x^2-3x-9=0 ?
If so, you have to factorise the equation
(2x-3) (x+3) = 0

2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 1.5

x + 3 = 0
x = -3

x is either 1.5 or -3

10 divided by 2-(16 divided by 4) +14
ankoles [38]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so you gotta use pemdas (p = parentheses, e = exponents, m = multiplication, d = division, a = addition, s = subtraction), but for the multiplication/division and addition/subtraction parts, if  division or subtraction happens first then you must do it first rather than doing multiplication or addition first

10 / 2 -(16/4) + 14

10 / 2 -(4) + 14

5 - 4 + 14

1 + 14

A cylinder with a radius of 12cm and a height of 20cm has the same volume as a cone with a radius of 8cm. What is the height of
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: 135cm

Step-by-step explanation

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Volume of a cone. = 1/3πr²h

The two shapes are both solid shapes.

Since the have same volume, we can then equate the two together and solve for the height of the cone.

Now make H the height and R the radius of the cylinder and h the height and r the radius of the cylinder.

Now equating the two

πR²H = 1/3πr²h

Now substitute for the values now

Multiply through by 3

3πR²H = πr²h

But π is common so it could be obliterated from the equation

3R²H = r²h

3 x 12² x 20 = 8² x h

3 x 144 x 20 = 64 x h

60 x 144 = 64h

8640. = 64h

Therefore

h = 8640/64

= 135cm
