F(x)  = 2 x - 5

15 = 2 x - 5

2 x - 5 = 15

2 x = 15 + 5

2 x = 20

x = 20 / 2

x = 10

hope this helps!

What is the length of side BC? Round the answer to the nearest tenth.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The length of side BC is 2.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the distance between two points

- If there are two points their coordinates are (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2),

 then we can find the distance between them by this rule:

 d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

- Now lets solve the problem

∵ B = (3 , 3)

∵ C = (5 , 1)

- To find the length of BC use the rule of the distance above

- Let point B is (x1 , y1) and point C is (x2 , y2)

∵ x1 = 3 and x2 = 5

∵ y1 = 3 and y2 = 1

∴ BC = √[(5 - 3)² + (1 - 3)²]

∴ BC = √[(2)² + (-2)²]

∴ BC = √[4 + 4] = √8 = 2.8 units

* The length of side BC is 2.8 units

Use the equation below to answer the question.
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The signa notation to represent the first five ten f(x) is given by f(x)=\sum\limits^{5}_{n=1}a_n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is -5, -9, 13...

Let f(x) be the given sequence and is denoted by

f(x)=\{-5,-9,-13,...\}

Let the first term be a_1, 2^{\textrm{nd}}  term be a_3,...

ie, a_1=-5,a_2=-9, a_3=-13,...

To find the common difference d:

d=a_2-a_1

=-9-(-5)

=-9-(+5)

d=-4

d=a_3-a_2

=-13-(-9)

=-13+9

d=-4

Therefore the common difference d is -4 for given sequence f(x) with a_1=-5 and d=-4, the seqence f(x) is an arithmetic sequence

By defintion of arithmetic sequence

a_n=a+(n-1)d\hfill(1)

Now to find a_4, a_5:

put n=4 in equation (1)

a_4=a+(4-1)d

a_4=-5+(3)(-4)        [since a=-5, d=-4]

=-5-12

a_4=-17

in equation (1)

a_5=a+(5-1)d

a_5=-5+(4)(-4)       [since a=-5, d=-4]

=-5-16

a_5=-21

Therefore a_4=-17 and a_5=-21

Therefore f(x)=\{-5,-9,-13,-17,-21,...\}

Now to represent the sum of the first five terms of f(x) using sigma notation as below

f(x)=\sum_{n=1}^5 a_n

where \sum_{n=1}^5 a_n=a_1+a_2+a_3+a_4+a_5

           -5-9-13-17-21

\sum_{n=1}^5 a_n=-65

GEOMETRY HELP PLEASE!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

make a good drawing and notice the right triangle with legs 20 mi and 14 mi

the distance from home to the warehouse is the hypotenuse c of the right triangle thus we will use the Pythagorean Theorem:

c^2 = 20^2 + 14^2

c^2 = 596

c = 24.41 mi approximately is the distance from home to a warehouse

since 24.41 < 25 you will incur a delivery charge.
