Answer:

f(x)=-3x+4

(can't see some of your choices)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want x to be independent means we want to write it so when we plug in numbers we can just choose what we want to plug in for x but y's value will depend on our choosing of x.

So we need to solve for y.

9x+3y=12

Subtract 9x on both sides

3y=-9x+12

Divide both sides by 3:

y=-3x+4

Replace y with f(x).

f(x)=-3x+4

Choose the fraction that is greater than 3/18٫is less than 50/100٫and has 9 as its denominator

erik [133]

Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator is the bottom value of a fraction, therefore we can discount 9/2

1/9 = 2/18. 2/18 is smaller than 3/18 so we can discount 1/9

50/100 = 0.5
5/9 = 0.55555...
0.55555... is greatest than 0.5, therefore we can discount 5/9

Answer is 4/9

8:18 at 4.5

8:48 at 7.5 miles ???

18 min = .3 hour

48 min = .8 hour

in first .3 hours speed = 4.5/.3 = 15 mph

in next .5 hours = speed = 3/.5 = 6 mph

average speed for the whole trip = 7.5 miles/.8 hours = 9.375 mph

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(2x-1)(x+4)=2x^2+7x-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(2x-1)(x+4)\qquad\text{use FOIL:}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\=(2x)(x)+(2x)(4)+(-1)(x)+(-1)(4)\\\\=2x^2+8x-x-4\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=2x^2+(8x-x)-4\\\\=2x^2+7x-4$
