First, you want to subtract 7 from both sides. On the left, it cancels out, so you're just left with 4x. On the right, your left with -2. Then, you divide 4 on both sides. On the left, it cancels out, and on the right it leaves you with 0.5. Anything below 0.5 (for ex 0, 0.25) would be correct. Anything above will be incorrect. Hope this helped!

Evaluate the following functions at x = 10<br>g(x)=√(x+1)​
V125BC [204]

g(x)=√(x+1)

Let's plug 10 in for x

g(10) = √(10+1)

Simplify the exponents

g(10) = √(11)

This is the exact form but it can also be expressed as a decimal.

√(11) = 3.31662479

You can simplify as needed

Kiyo bought a pizza for $12.75 and four medium drinks at Paola’s pizza. Define a variable and write an expression to represent t
Travka [436]
Y = total amount of money spent
x = cost of one drink

So our expression is:
4x + 12.75

4x stands for 4 drinks times x price of one drink
The 12.75 is a one time fee for the pizza, since Kiyo isn't buying multiple pizzas.

The problem also asks us to find the total price, so we write an equation:

y = 4x + 12.75
We insert what x is which in this case is $3
y = 4(3) + 12.75
Order of Operations tells us to multiply first:
y = 12 + 12.75
Now add your values:
y = 24.75
Therefore, Kiyo spent a total amount of 24.75 at Paola's pizza.

Let's check our problem just in case:

24.75 = 4x + 12.75
Since we now know what y is equal to, we can plug that into our original equation and check just to verify

We should subtract 12. on both sides of the equation because of inverse operations:

24.75 - 12.75  = 12.75 - 12.75 + 4x
We are left with:

12 = 4x
We divide:
\frac{12}{4}  =  \frac{4x}{4}
Our result is:
3 = x
Which checks out because each drink was in fact, $3 dollars as stated in the word problem. Hope that was thorough enough.

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> x =
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 12² = 13², so

x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{25} = 5

Find the equation of a line that is parallel to y = 2x + 3 and passes through (-1, -1).
drek231 [11]

Answer:

  y = 2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in "slope-intercept" form, where the slope is the coefficient of x, 2, and the intercept is the added constant, 3. The parallel line will have the same slope, but its constant will be different. We can find the constant by putting the given point into an equation with the constant as the unknown:

  y = 2x + b

  -1 = 2(-1) +b . . . substitute for x and y

 2 -1 = b . . . . . . add 2

  1 = b

So the equation for the parallel line is ...

  y = 2x + 1
