Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8

Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label 
so that we can work with it.  We can call it anything.  I'd like to call it ' G '.

The number we're looking for is ' G '.

Half of it is  1/2 G

The sum of that and 6 is          1/2 G + 6

Ten times that is              10 (1/2 G + 6)

The question says that's 8.
                                        So       10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8

Divide each side by  10 :                1/2 G + 6  =  0.8

Subtract  6  from each side:            1/2 G  =  - 5.2

Multiply each side by  2 :                        G  =  - 10.4

That seems like a weird answer.  We should check it.

The number:                                         -10.4
Half the number:                                   - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6:      -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum:                                                  8

10(0.5x + 6) = 8
5x + 60 = 8
5x = 8 - 60
5x = -52
x = -52/5
x = -10.4

What are the characteristics of the function f(x)=2(x-4)^5? Check all that apply
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Option B , C , E are characteristics of the function .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : function f(x)=2(x-4)^5.

To find : What are the characteristics of the function .

Solution : We have given that f(x)=2(x-4)^{5}.

By the End Point behavior : if the degree is even and leading coefficient is odd of polynomial of function then left end of graph goes down and right goes up.

Since , Option E is correct.

It has degree 5 therefore, function has 5 zeros and atmost 4 maximua or minimum.

Option C is also correct.

By transformation rule it is vertical stretch and shift to right (B )

Therefore, Option B , C , E are characteristics of the function .

The Quadratic Formula gives which roots for the equation 2x2 + 7x = -2?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

B. (-7 +/-√33) / 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x2 + 7x + 2 = 0

x =  [-7 +/-  √(7^2 - 4*2*2)] / 2*2

x = -7/4 +/- √(33) / 4

=  (-7 +/-√33) / 4
