So 8x+4+4x+8=15x-9
Combine like terms.
12x+12=15x-9
Add 9 to both sides.
12x+21=15x
Subtract 12 from both sides.
21=3x
Divide both sides by 3.
x=7
Now plug in 7 for x in 8x+4.
8(7)+4
56+4
=60
The side is -15 and the top is 56
4) The line segments formed are parallel because they never meet.
8) The answer is B. That is because there is a right angle and right angles are formed by perpendicular lines.
Hope this helps :)<span />
Take the derivative:
g’(x) = 12x^3 - 24x^2
Set equal to zero and solve:
0 = 12x^3 - 24x^2
0 = 12x^2 (x - 2)
x = 0 or x = 2
Plug back into original
g(0) = 3(0^4) - 8(0^3)
g(0) = 0 - 0
g(0) = 0
g(2) = 3(2^2) - 8(2^3)
g(2) = 3(4) - 8(8)
g(2) = 12 - 64
g(2) = -52
There is an absolute max at (0,0) or when x = 0
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation: 1 Divided by 2.5 is 0.4, or 40%.
