If x-y =8 find the value of y when x=3

1 answer:

8 0

Answer: y = -5

Substitute in 3 for x.
x - y = 8 Substitution
3 - y = 8 Subtract 3 from both sides
-y = 5 Divide by -1 to both sides
y = -5 Answer!

You can also check your work.
x - y = 8
3 - (-5) = 8
3 + 5 = 8
8 = 8

The function f(x) = x is translated such that the function describing the translated graph is g(x) = (x + 5)' + 2. Where

Tresset [83]

Answer:

(-5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = f(x -h) +k

is a translation of f(x) h units to the right and k units upward. Here, we seem to have h=-5 and k=2. That means the point (0, 0) has been translated 5 units to the left (to -5) and 2 units upward (to 2).

The translated location of (0, 0) is (-5, 2).

_____

We assume we're to ignore the apostrophe (') in the equation for g(x).

sergeinik [125]

Answer

Find out the what is the clearance price of a manatee.

To prove

As given

The gift shop at manatee mall was having a clearance sale.

Everything was marked down 30%.

The original price of a manatee hat was $12.

30 % is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{30}{100}$

= 0.30

30% of the original price of a manatee = 0.30 × 12

= $ 3.6

Clearance price = original price - 30% of the original price

= 12 - 3.6

= $ 8.4

Therefore the clearance price be $8.4 .

A study shows that employees who begin their workday at 9:00 a.m. vary their times of arrival uniformly from 8:40 a.m. to 9:30 a

jeka94

Answer:

0.2 or 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the times of arrival vary uniformly, there is an equal chance of an employee reporting at any given time between 8:40 and 9:30.

The range between 8:40 and 9:30 is 50 minutes.

The range between 9:00 and 9:10 is 10 minutes.

Therefore, the probability that a randomly chosen employee reports to work between 9:00 and 9:10 is:

$P(9:00\leq X\leq 9:10)=\frac{10}{50}=0.20=20\%$

The probability is 0.2 or 20%.

If p stays constant and u is doubled what happens to e? given U=EP

Stolb23 [73]

We are given the expression:

U = E * P

The equality symbol “ = “ means that for all cases, the value of U and E * P must always be equal. This means that whatever happens on the left side, must equally happen on the right side.

So what this actually means is that, if we double U so we must also double the expression E * P, that is:

2 U = 2 (E * P)

However since P stays constant in the process, therefore only E is changed, hence:

2 U = P * 2 E

So we can see that E is also doubled.
