Solve the equation for x by graphing -2x + 3 = -3(-x) - 2

1 answer:

adoni [48]2 years ago

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to solve this. One is to graph the left side of the equation, graph the right side of the equation, and look for the point where those graphs intersect. It is at x = 1. The first attached graph shows this solution.

__

Another method for solving such an equation is to subtract one side from the other and look for the value of x that makes the resulting expression zero.

(-2x +3) -(-3(-x) -2) = 0

A graphing calculator doesn't need to have this simplified. If it is simplified, it becomes ...

-5x +5 = 0

So, the graphed line is y = -5x+5. Its x-intercept is x=1, the solution of the original equation. The graph of this is shown in the second attachment.

△ACD∼△BED What is the value of x?

slega [8]

Answer:

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle BED is enlarged by scale factor 4.

(25-x)/4 = x

Multiply both sides by 4.

25-x = 4x

Add x on both sides.

25 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5.

5 = x

If h and j are positive, (h+j)2 = 73 and h2 +j2 = 51, what is hj?

kkurt [141]

Answer:

$hj = 11$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(h+j)^2=73,\:\: and\:\: h^2+j^2 =51$ (Given)

$(h+j)^2 = h^2+j^2 +2hj$

$\implies 73= 51 +2hj$

$\implies 73- 51 =2hj$

$\implies 22 =2hj$

$\implies hj = \frac{22}{2}$

$\implies hj = 11$

How many tissues should the kimberly clark corporation package of kleenex contain? researchers determined that 60 tissues is the

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 60

For the alternative hypothesis,

h1: µ < 60

This is a left tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 100,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 52

µ = population mean = 60

s = samples standard deviation = 22

t = (52 - 60)/(22/√100) = - 3.64

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.00023

We would reject the null hypothesis if α = 0.05 > 0.00023
