Answer:
7(6m - 4) = -364
multiply 7 for both variables in the parenthesis
42m - 28 = -364
move 28 to other side
42m= -336
divide 42 on both sides
m= -8
One question at a time, please. I will focus on #16 and ignore #18.
slope: 3/4 line passes thru (-8,2)
Write out y = mx + b. Subst. 2 for y. Subst. -8 for x Subst. (3/4) for m:
2 = (3/4)(-8) + b. Find b. 2 = -6 + b => b = 8
So your equation is y = (3/4)x + 8. Please, use ( ) around those fractions!
Answer:
Answer B ![(-\infty,1)U(1,2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C1%29U%281%2C2%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the quotient of f(x)/g(x) is:

therefore, this new function imposes conditions due to the fact that it has a square root in the numerator and a binomial in the denominator both with the variable x. Then, in order for the root in the numerator to be defined, the argument inside the root must be larger than or equal to zero. That is:

So, this condition must be satisfied by the x-values of the domain.
Then we have the binomial in the denominator, which in order to be defined needs to be different from zero. Notice that the only x-value that could cause problems (render zero) is:

Then, 
So we have to eliminate the number 1 from the previous subset that required x smaller than or equal to 2.
The way to represent this Domain is then: ![(-\infty,1)U(1,2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C1%29U%281%2C2%5D)
The answer is choice D
-----------------------------------------
Explanation:
We can rule out choice B and choice C which are y = 2.4^x and y = 3.5^x respectively. Why can we eliminate these? Because they are growth functions (the bases are larger than 1). The graph shown is a decay function. It goes downhill as you read it from left to right.
The answer is either choice A or choice D
If we plug in x = -2 into the equations for A and D, we get
y = 0.65^x = 0.65^(-2) = 2.36686
y = 0.32^x = 0.32^(-2) = 9.765625
The result for choice D is much closer to what the graph is showing. The graph appears to have the point (-2,11) on the curve. So that's why choice D is the best answer.
Note: the graph is a bit small and its not entirely clear which points are on this graph other than (0,1). So this is a bit of educated guesswork.
Answer:
k = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
-4k + 2(5k − 6) = −3k – 48
Distribute on the left side.
-4k + 10k - 12 = -3k - 48
Combine like terms on the left side.
6k - 12 = -3k - 48
Add 3k to both sides.
9k - 12 = -48
Add 12 to both sides.
9k = -36
Divide both sides by 9.
k = -4
