Answer:

9 and 11  

Step-by-step explanation:

First number = x -2

Second number = x

  and   2x = 3(x-2)  - 5

            2x = 3x - 6 - 5

             x = 11

              first number = 11-2 = 9

A landscaper receives a discount on each plant purchased. The original price of each plant is x dollars. The landscaper purchase
prisoha [69]

Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount is a form of consideration in price or amount given to a customer on a sale of goods. It can be deduced from the question that;

The original price of each plant = $x

Number of plants purchased = 20

Price of the number of plants purchased without discount = $20x

Amount paid for the 20 plants with discount = $(20x - 80)

Thus,

The discount on the 20 plants = $80

Discount on each plant = \frac{total discount on plants}{number of plants purchased}

                                       = \frac{80}{20}

                                       = $4

Discount on each plant = $4

Therefore, each plant was discounted by $4.

HD Straight line graphs
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The equation of the sraight line  3x- y+ 6 =0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given that the gradient of the function

   |gradf| = 3  and point (-1,3)

Given that the slope of the line

 m = 3

The equation of the straight line passing through the point(-1,3) and slope m =3

y -y_{1} = m(x-x_{1} )

y-3 = 3(x-(-1))

y-3 = 3x+3

3x +3-y+3=0

3x- y+ 6 =0

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The equation of the sraight line  3x- y+ 6 =0

<u><em></em></u>

Which math function describes the following situation?
MissTica
This is the concept of inequality;
We are told that the distance a car travels depends on how full gas tank is, this means that the car will travel until the point when gasoline is finished. Thus,
This mean that if the if the distance is given by the function f(x), x will be the gasoline since it is the dependent variable, liters this in other words can be written as (if the tank holds 89 ):

f(x)=distance(gasoline)<89

thus the correct answer will be:

B] Distance (amount of gasoline) <  89
