Solve for m:3 m + 7/2 = 5/2 - 2 m
Put each term in 3 m + 7/2 over the common denominator 2: 3 m + 7/2 = (6 m)/2 + 7/2:(6 m)/2 + 7/2 = 5/2 - 2 m
(6 m)/2 + 7/2 = (6 m + 7)/2:(6 m + 7)/2 = 5/2 - 2 m
Put each term in 5/2 - 2 m over the common denominator 2: 5/2 - 2 m = 5/2 - (4 m)/2:(6 m + 7)/2 = 5/2 - (4 m)/2
5/2 - (4 m)/2 = (5 - 4 m)/2:(6 m + 7)/2 = (5 - 4 m)/2
Multiply both sides by 2:6 m + 7 = 5 - 4 m
Add 4 m to both sides:6 m + 4 m + 7 = (4 m - 4 m) + 5
4 m - 4 m = 0:6 m + 4 m + 7 = 5
6 m + 4 m = 10 m:10 m + 7 = 5
Subtract 7 from both sides:10 m + (7 - 7) = 5 - 7
7 - 7 = 0:10 m = 5 - 7
5 - 7 = -2:10 m = -2
Divide both sides of 10 m = -2 by 10:(10 m)/10 = (-2)/10
10/10 = 1:m = (-2)/10
The gcd of -2 and 10 is 2, so (-2)/10 = (2 (-1))/(2×5) = 2/2×(-1)/5 = (-1)/5:Answer: m = (-1)/5

Answer:

-2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3m + 7/2 = -2m + 5/2

3m + 7 = -2m + 5

5m = -2

m = -2/5

(0.4y - 3)/(1.5y + 9) = -7/5

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

y = -3.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

(0.4y - 3)/(1.5y + 9) = -7/5

Cross multiply:

2y - 15 = -10.5y - 63

12.5y = -48

y = -3.84

The curve with equation y = f ( x ) is stretched so that the point (-3,-5) moves to the point (-3,-10). State in terms of f ( x

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The transformed function is $g(x) = 2\cdot f(x)$ , $\forall\,x \in \mathbb{R}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ continuous functions in x. In this case, the stretch factor consist on multiplying $f(x)$ by a scalar factor, so that:

$g(x) = k \cdot f(x)$ , $\forall\, k\in \mathbb{R}, k \neq 0$

The stretch factor is:

$k = \frac{g(x)}{f(x)}$ , $\forall\, x \in \mathbb{R}$

If $f(-3) = -5$ and $g(-3) = -10$ , then:

$k = \frac{g(-3)}{f(-3)}$

$k = \frac{-10}{-5}$

$k = 2$

The transformed function is $g(x) = 2\cdot f(x)$ , $\forall\,x \in \mathbb{R}$ .

A cube in Emily's closet where she stores her jewelry has a side length of 1 1/4 feet.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

1.95 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Emily stores her jewelry in a cube and the cube has a side length of $1\frac{1}{4}$ feet.

$1\frac{1}{4}$ feet in an decimal form is 1.25 feet.

We know that,

volume of a cube = s $^{3}$

where s is the side length of the cube.

So substituting this value of side length of cube in the formula to get:

Volume of cube = $(1.25)^3$ = 1.95 feet

An angle measures 47.2° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle? on ixl

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The measure of one angle is $113.6^o$ , and the measure of the other one is $66.4^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that supplementary angles are those whose addition renders $180^o$

We need to find the measure of two such angles whose difference is precisely $47.2^o$ .

Let's call such angles x and y, and consider that angle x is larger than angle y, so we can setup the following system of equations:

$x+y=180^o\\x-y=47.2^o$

We can now solve this by simply combining term by term both equations, thus cancelling the term in "y", and solving first for "x":

$x+y=180^o\\x-y=47.2^o\\\\2x=180^o+47.2^o\\2x=227.2^o\\x=113.6^o$

So, now we have the answer for one of the angles (x), and can use either equation from the system to find the measure of angle "y":

$y=180^o-x\\y=180^o-113.6^o\\y=66.4^o$
