Answer:

C. (4,28)

Step-by-step explanation:

The substitution method requires you to input a specified number in place of a variable. In this case, the variable 'x' should be replaced by the number 4. Using the order of operations, we know that multiplication should be applied before subtraction. When we replace 'x' with 4, we get the equation 'y=8(4)-4'. Multiplying 8 and 4 gives us 32. If we subtract 4 from 32, we get 28. The answer ends up being 'y=28'.

That is the first part of our solution. What we are actually looking for is an ordered pair. We know ordered pairs are written in the form (x, y). First, we need to find the 'x'. The 'x' has been given to us from the beginning, it is 4. Next is the 'y'. This is what we needed to find using substitution. We ultimately concluded that the 'y' is equivalent to 28. Therefore our ordered pair is (4, 28), the letter choice C.

I hope this helped you and that I clearly elaborated on the answer choice.

Answer: x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify:

-(x-1)=5 => -x+1=5

Isolate x:

-x=5-1 => -x=4 => x=-4

Explain how to determine which numbers must be excluded from the domain of a rational expression. Please provide an example with

Katarina [22]

Answer:

When we are having a rational expression i.e. a expression of the type:

$\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}$

Where f(x) and g(x) are polynomial functions.

Now the domain of this rational expression is whole of the real numbers except the points where the function g(x) will be zero.

Hence we have to exclude the points where the given denominator quantity is zero.

Let us consider an example as:

Let R(x) denote the rational function as:

$R(x)=\dfrac{x^2}{(x-2)(x-3)}$

Now the domain of this rational function will be whole of the real line minus the points where the denominator is zero.

We know that (x-2)(x-3) is zero when x=2 or x=3.

Hence, the domain of R(x) is: R- {2,3}.
