y= 7 (a)

y= 2x-5 (b)

Replace (a) on (b) ans solve for x:

7 = 2x-5

Add 5 to both sides of the equation:

7+5 = 2x -5 +5

12 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

12/2 = 2x/2

6 = x

Solution:

x=6, y=7

Answer:

5 pack notebook

Step-by-step explanation:

5 pack notebook costs more because the 4 pack notebook costs 4 dollars w/ 2 cents off, and 5 pack notebook costs 5 dollars and with 1 cent of, so if ir increase by 1 dollar, than probably the 5 pack costs more. It is not about how many, but how much dollars are for per/ notebook.

Solve for x:<br> 1 1/5x−2 1/3<1/7x+1 1/2

Mashcka [7]

Answer: $x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

Add $2\frac{1}{3}$ on both sides and subtract $\frac{1}{7}x$ on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.

$(2\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{7}x) +1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

$1\frac{1}{5}x-\frac{1}{7}x$

Solve the fractions.

$1(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7})x$

$1(\frac{(1)(7)-(5)(1)}{(5)(7)} )x$

$1(\frac{7-5}{35} )x$

$1(\frac{2}{35} )x$

$1\frac{2}{35}x$

Convert the mixed fraction $1\frac{2}{35}$ to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.

$\frac{37}{35}x$

Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.

$(\frac{35}{37}) (\frac{37}{35})x$

$x$

If f(x) = 3x^2 – 2x + 4 and g(x) = 5x^2 + 6x – 8, find (f - g)(x).

meriva

Answer:

$-2x^2-8x+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f-g=(3x^2-2x+4)-(5x^2+6x-8)=3x^2-2x+4-5x^2-6x+8=\\ =-2x^2-8x+12$
