Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: f(x)=(-3,0), (-0.5,-6.25), (0,-6), (2,0);
The answers for one, two, and three are:
False
True
True
1. 3x - 2y = 0 => y = 3/2x
4x + 2y = 14<=> 4x + 2*(3/2x) = 14<=> 7x = 14<=> x = 2 & y = 3
2.3p + q = 7=> q = 7 - 3p
2p - 2q = -6<=> 2p - 2*(7-3p) = -6<=> 2p - 14 + 6p = -6<=> 8p = -6 + 14 = 8<=> p = 1 & q = 4
3.3x - 2y = 1=> x = (1+2y)/3
8x + 3y = 2<=> 8*(1+2y)/3 + 3y = 2<=> 8*(1+2y)/3 - 2 = -3y<=> 3*(8*(1+2y)/3 - 2) = -3*(3y)<=> 8*(1+2y) - 6 = -9y<=> 8 + 16y - 6 = -9y<=> 2 = -25y<=> y = -2/25 & x = 7/25
Answer: half the number?
If you write an equation for it:
Let the number be x
1/2x = x - 1/2x
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The number is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding the Number
To find the number, we have to translate the problem above to an algebraic equation. The algebraic equation refers to the statement of the equality of two algebraic expressions.
Equation:
Let "x" be the number.
4 is divided by a number - 4/x
3 divided by the number decreased by 2 - 3/x-2
"4 is divided by a number is equal to 3 divided by the number decreased by 2"
4/x = 3/x-2
Solution:
Cross multiply.
4/x = 3/x-2
x(3) = 4(x-2)
3x = 4x - 8
(Combine similar terms.)
3x - 4x = - 8
- x = - 8
- x/- 1 = - 8/- 1
x = 8
Final Answer:
8
Checking:
4/x = 3/x-2
4/8 = 3/8-2
1/2 = 3/6
1/2 = 1/2 ✔
