Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2} x - 3

x + y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the kitten's weight be y and the cat's weight be x

<u><em>Condition # 1: </em></u>

y = \frac{1}{2} x - 3

<u><em>Condition # 2:</em></u>

x + y = 18

F(x) = x2 + 5x - 1 is shifted 3 units left. The result is g(x). What is g(x)?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

g(x) = (x + 3)^2 + 5(x + 3) - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:  f(x) = x^2 + 5x - 1.

Shifting the graph of this function 3 units left results in

g(x) = (x + 3)^2 + 5(x + 3) - 1

What is AB?<br> a. 6cm<br> b. 9cm<br> c. 4cm<br> d. 2.2cm
Fed [463]

Answer:

AB = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent and secant are drawn from an external point to the circle.

Then the square of the measure of the tangent is equal to the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant.

let AB = x, then

x(x + 5) = 6²

x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

However x > 0 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ b = 4 CM

Clare was solving an equation, but when she checked her answer she saw her solution was incorrect. She knows she made a mistake,
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

12 times 5=60 not 70

Step-by-step explanation:

12(5+2y)=4y-(5-9y

60+24y=4y-5-9y

60+24y=-5y-5

29y+60=-5

29y=-65

y=-65/29 or y= about -2.38

Kara had a savings account balance of $153 on Monday on Tuesday she has six withdrawals of $15.72 and a deposit of $235.15 what
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

$293.83

Step-by-step explanation:

She started with $153. The next day she withdrew $15.72 six times, that is $15.72*6 = $94.32

We have to subtract $94.32 from the starting amount, that is $153 - $94.32 = $58.68

After that, she deposited $235.15. We have to add that to the current balance.

Now she has $58.68 + $235.15 = $293.83

Therefore, her account balance after these transactions is $293.83
