when \: a = 18 \: and \: b = 14 \\  \frac{1}{2} (18 + 14) - (18 - 14) ^{2}  \\  = 16 - ( {4}^{2} ) \\  = 16 - 16 \\  = 0
Hope this helps.

2/3 of the sum of three times a number and six is 10. what is the number?
mestny [16]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number. The problem statement tells you ...

2/3(3x +6) = 10

  2x +4 = 10 . . . . . . use the distributive property

  x +2 = 5 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3

The number is 3.

__

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

The above shows an "alternative" solution method. The more usual way this might be done is ...

  2(3x +6) = 30 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions

  6x +12 = 30 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  6x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

What is the order of the set A={-1,20,3,17,5}
laiz [17]

Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm assuming your talking about least to greatest, OR greatest to least.  If so, that's what I'll do...


Least to Greatest: -1, 3, 5, 17, 20

Greatest to Least: 20, 17, 5, 3, -1

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unfortunately I did not completely understand the question, for future reference please give AS MUCH detail as possible so that your fellow brainly members can help you ASAP...

And thanks for using Brainly!

Find x for the problem
oee [108]

Answer:

14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

sin x = 24/30

x = sin^-1 (24/30) = 53.13

sin 53.13 = x/18

x = sin 53.13 x 18 = 14.4

Which ordered pair would form a proportional relationship with the point graphed below? On a coordinate plane, a line with negat
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Answer:

(5, 20)  

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of the line

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (40-0)/(10-0)

   = 40/10

   =4

Since the line goes through (0,0) the y intercept is 0

y = mx+b

y = 4x

Lets check the points  by substituting into the equation

40, 10)     10 = 4*40   10 =160  no

(–5, –10)    -10 = 4*-5    10 = -20   no

(5, 20)       20 = 4*5    20 = 20  yes

(–10, –20)    -20 = 4*-10    -20 = -40   no

Step-by-step explanation:

Which ordered pair would form a proportional relationship with the point graphed below? On a coordinate plane, a line with negative slope goes through points (negative 20, 10), (0, 0), and (20, negative 10). (10, –20) (–30, 20) (–10, 5) (35, –20)

The vertex of the graph of f(x) = |x - 3| +6 is located at<br> Done<br> Intro
Igoryamba

Answer:

The vertex of the graph is located at the point (3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know where the vertex of the equation if plotted will be

To get this, what we have to do is to equate the expression that we have in the absolute value to zero

After this, we then proceed to solve for the value of x

We have this as;

x -3 = 0

hence;

x = 0 + 3

x = 3

to get the y-value of the vertex, we look at the value at the side of the absolute value

This value is 6 and thus, the y-value of the vertex point is 6

So the coordinates of the vertex is (3,6)
