Answer:

One solution, x=5.

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-8=12

To find the solution we have to find the value of x.

to find the value of x, we have to add 8 to BOTH sides.

4x-8=12   (Why add 8? because we have to do the opposite of the sign!)

   +8  +8

4x=20

Now to find X we have to ISOLATE IT.

So we take out 4, How? We do the opposite to both sides.

4/4 Cancels out

20/4 = 5

So now we know X=5

Insert in the main problem to check.

4(5)-8=12

20-8=12

12=12

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x−8=12

Step 1: Add 8 to both sides.

4x−8+8=12+8

4x=20

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.

4x

4

=

20

4

x=5

Given the following equation, at what point will the graph intersect? f(x) =5x+1 g(x)= -2x+15
Andru [333]

Answer: (2,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the point where the functions will intersect, we want to find the place that they are equal to each other. We do this by setting the equations equal to each other.

5x+1=-2x+15                       [add both sides by 2x]

7x+1=15                               [subtract both sides by 1]

7x=14                                  [divide both sides by 7]

x=2

Now, we know that the functions intersect at x=2. To find the point, we would plug x back into both equations to ensure that the points are the same.

f(2)=5(2)+1                         [multiply]

f(2)=10+1                            [add]

f(2)=11

The point on f(x) is (2,11).

g(2)=-2(2)+15                    [multiply]

g(2)=-4+15                         [add]

g(2)=11

The point on g(x) is (2,11).

Since the point at x=2 is the same for f(x) and g(x), we know that the graph intersects at (2,11).

Complete the table for the given rule. Rule: y = x + 3
devlian [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since there is no table included with the question I'm concluding that you need to find values of y using values of x, simply substitute the x values in the equation and you'll get the y value like this

if x = 1 y = 4

A volunteer has 12 pounds of birdseed to put in the bird feeders in all of the city parks. There are 13/4 cups of birdseed in a
kozerog [31]

Answer:

\large \boxed{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the number of cups

\text{Cups} = \text{12 lb}\times\dfrac{1\frac{3}{4} \text{ cups}}{\text{1 lb}} =12\times\dfrac{\text{7 cups}}{4} = 3\times7\text{ cups}= \text{21 cups}

2. Calculate the number of bird feeders

\text{ Feeders}= \text{21 cups} \times \dfrac{\text{1 feeder}}{\frac{3}{4}\text{ cup}}=\text{21 cups} \times \dfrac{\text{4 feeders}}{\text{3 cups}} = 7 \times \text{ 4 feeders}\\\\= \textbf{28 feeders}\\\text{The volunteer can fill $\large \boxed{\textbf{28 feeders}}$}
