Procedure to solve the equation in one variable

-4 x-25= 8 x+15

Taking variable on one side and constant on another side of equation

- 4 x - 8 x = 15 + 25(When one quantity goes on other side of equation , the sign preceding it changes)

- 12 x= 40

x = \frac{40}{-12}=\frac{-10}{3}

By looking at the solution described above , you can find yourself who has done the mistake between Becky and Tommy and  can also identify the error and rectify it.

I feel sorry for Becky and Tommy. The one who didn't come up with x=-10/3 made an error.

first bring 8x to the left and -25 to the right and simplify:

-4x-8x = 25+15 => -12x = 40

x = -40/12 = -10/3

A farmer has a bale of hay with mass of 36 kilograms. How many milligrams of hay are in the bale?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

KILO=1000.............. MILLI= thousandth

1kg is 1000 grams

1 milligram is one thousandth of a gram, so a 1 gram = 1000mg.

in 36 kg, then there are 36 * 1000 grams.

and in (36*1000) grams there are (36*1000)*1000 mg, 36,000,000 mg.

Helppp!! I NEED HELP PLEASE
Elodia [21]

Given:

The table of values for the function f(x).

To find:

The values f^{-1}(f(3.14)) and f(f(-7)).

Solution:

From the given table, it is clear that the function f(x) is defined as:

f(x)=\{(-14,11),(-7,-12),(-12,-5),(9,1),(10,-2),(-2,13)\}

We know that if (a,b) is in the function f(x), then (b,a) must be in the function f^{-1}(x). So, the inverse function is defined as:

f^{-1}(x)=\{(11,-14),(-12,-7),(-5,-12),(1,9),(-2,10),(13,-2)\}

And,

f^{-1}(f(a))=f^{1}(b)

f^{-1}(f(a))=a              ...(i)

Using (i), we get

f^{-1}(f(3.14))=3.14

Now,

f(f(-7))=f(-12)

f(f(-7))=5

Therefore, the required values are f^{-1}(f(3.14))=3.14 and f(f(-7))=5.

the sum of ages of father and his son is 60 years.if the difference between their ages is 40 years then find the age of father a
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Father's age is 50, Son's age is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=60

X-Y= 40

Let X represent the Father's age while Y represents the Son's age;

therefore, from the two equations, the value of X is

X= 60-Y

X= 40+Y  then putting in the value of x

(40+Y) + Y= 60,

40+2Y=60

2Y=60-40 =20

Y= 10,

Now that we know the value of Y, we can get the value of x

If X+Y=60, then

X+10=60,

X=60-10,

X= 50
