Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

14=7(2x-4)

14/7=2x-4

2=2x-4

2x=2+4

2x=6

x=6/2

x=3

------------

14=7(2x-4)

14=14x-28

14x=14+28

14x=42

x=42/14

x=3

14=7(2x-4)\\2=2x-4\\2x=6\\x=3\\\\14=7(2x-4)\\14=14x-28\\14x=42\\x=3

I prefer the first method, because I don't do unnecessary multiplication and therefore operate on smaller numbers.

AB is tangent to the circle at B. M∠A=40 and mBC=130. <br> a. Find x <br> b. Find y
soldi70 [24.7K]

The values for x and y are respectively given as

  • x = 50
  • y= 90

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is the values for x and y ?</h3>

Generally, the equation for secent  is  mathematically given as

secent = \frac{big arc - small arc}{2}

Therefore

40 = \frac{130-x}{2}

80 = 130-x

x = 50

b) To Solve for y Now we find a measure of arc CD

ArcCD = 360-130-50

ArcCD = 180

In conclusion,(1/2) of the arc measure is equal to the angle that is on and inside a circle.

y = 180/2

y= 90

A restaurant offers a catering service which costs $25.00 per person with a $119.50 service charge. For parties of 50 or more pe
Molodets [167]

Answer:

T1(n) = 25n +119.50  where n belongs to 1 \leq n.

T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to 50\leq  n.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two situations first is for normal days and the other is for days when 50 or more people are going to this restaurant for the party.

Let the number of person going for this restaurant be "n"

For normal day, we are given

catering service = $25 per person

service charge = $119.50  

Let the total cost of the restaurant be T

Cost for this case will be T1  

T1(n) = 25n +119.50  where n belongs to 1 \leq n

similarly for the case when 50 or more than that goes to this restaurant for party.

cost after discount

Catering service = $20.00 per person

service charge = $59.00

now the cost of this case will be T2

T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to 50\leq  n.

Therefore the two piecewise linear functions represents the total cost of the restaurant for serving n people.

A colored chip is yellow on one side and red on the other. The chip was flipped 50 times and landed red side facing up 21 times.
faust18 [17]
42%

You have essentially a fraction, 21/50, which gives you a decimal of 0.42, or 42%.

(Flipped a total of 50 times, of those, it landed red side up 21 times, so 21/50)

Y = f(x) = -3^x<br> Find fx) when x = 0.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute x with 0 in the polynomial so we get,

-3^x

= -3^0

= 1 ( because any number raised to 0 is 1)

Hope it helps:)
