Answer:

x=44

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty straightforward!

4-x/5 +x+2/3=6

3(4-x) + 5(x+2) = 90 (Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, a multiple of both 5 and 3)

12-3x+5x+10=90 (Use Distributive property to multiply across parentheses)

-3x+5x=90-12+10 (Bring like terms together/Signs change when moved to the other side)

2x=88

x=44

Thank you for your time!

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

All of given options contain quadratic functions. One way to determine the extreme value is squaring the expression with variable x.

Option B contain the expression where you can see perfect square. Thus, equation $\bf{y=-(x-2)^2+5}$ (choice B) reveals its extreme value without needing to be altered.

To determine the extreme value of this equation, you should substitute x=2 (x-value that makes expression in brackets equal to zero) into the function notation:

$y=-(2-2)^2+5=5.$

The extreme value of this equation has a minimum at the point (2,5).
