Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: 3x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=3x^2+x\\f(a)=3a^2+a\\f(4)=3*4^2+4=52\\\\f(x)-f(4)=3x^2+x-52=(x-4)(3x+13)\\\\\dfrac{f(x)-f(4)}{x-4} =\dfrac{3x^2+x-52}{x-4} \\\\if\ x \neq 4\ then \\\\\dfrac{f(x)-f(4)}{x-4} =\dfrac{(x-4)(3x+13)}{x-4} \\\\=3x+13\\

Use decimals and fractions in the same equation showing the Commutative Property. Repeat for the Associative Property.
Anna71 [15]

For Commutative Property of Addition

Let us take a decimal number 2.14 and a fraction \frac{5}{20}

Now, according to the Commutative property of Addition:

For any two numbers a and b :

a+b = b+a

So, for 2.14 and \frac{5}{20}

Let us add

2.14+\frac{5}{20}  = \frac{214}{100}  +\frac{5}{20}

                                   =\frac{214}{100}  + \frac{5 \times 5}{20 \times 5} \\ \\=\frac{214}{100}  + \frac{25}{100} \\ \\= 2.14 + 0.25 \\ \\ = 2.39

Also,

\frac{5}{20} + 2.14  = \frac{5}{20} + \frac{214}{100}

                                     = \frac{5 \times 5}{20 \times 5} +\frac{214}{100} \\ \\= \frac{25}{100}  + \frac{214}{100} \\ \\=  0.25 + 2.14 \\ \\ = 2.39

Therefore, 2.14+\frac{5}{20} = \frac{5}{20} + 2.14

Hence,  Commutative Property of Addition is satisfied.


For Associated Property of Addition

Let us take two same decimal numbers 2.14 , 7.25 and a fraction \frac{5}{20}

Now, according to the Associated property of Addition:

For any three numbers a, b  and  c

a + (b+c) =(a+b) + c

So, for 2.14 , 7.25 and \frac{5}{20}

The Left hand side:

a + (b+c)

2.14 + (7.25 + \frac{5}{20}) = 2.14 + (\frac{725}{100} + \frac{5 \times 5}{20\times 5})

                                                         = 2.14 + (\frac{725}{100} + \frac{25 }{100})

                                                         = 2.14 + (\frac{750}{100} )

                                                        = \frac{214}{100} + \frac{750}{100}

                                                         = \frac{964}{100}

                                                        =9.64


The Right hand side:

(a + b )+c

(2.14 + 7.25 )+ \frac{5}{20}= ( 9.39 ) + \frac{5 }{20}

                                                = 9.39  + \frac{5 \times 5 }{20 \times 5}

                                                = 9.39  + \frac{25}{100}

                                                = 9.39  + 0.25

                                                = 9.64


Thus,

(2.14 + (7.25 + \frac{5}{20} )= (2.14 + 7.25 )+ \frac{5}{20}

Therefore, 2.14+\frac{5}{20} = \frac{5}{20} + 2.14

Hence,  Associative Property of Addition is satisfied.

2X+2Y=48<br> 3X+Y=40 <br><br> What is X and Y
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

x=8

y=16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2y=48

3x+y=40

Ther is many ways to solve this, one of them is clearance:

WE CLEAR AN UNLOCKED (X) AND REPLACE IT IN THE OTHER

x= (40-y)/3

2[(40-y)/3] +2y=48

(80-2y)/3 +2y=48

(80-2y+6y)/3=48

80+4y=48(3)

4y=144

y= 144/4

y=16

x=(40-y)/3

x=(40-16)/3

x=24/3

x=8

The equation that models this trip is T= 36x + 60 where T represents the total cost for the group to take the trip and X equals
Archy [21]

We are given

The equation that models this trip is T= 36x + 60

T represents the total cost for the group to take the trip and

X equals the number of people going

we know that

Domain is all possible values of x for which any function is defined

Since, number of people can neither be negative nor in decimals

so, x can not be negative or in decimals

now, we will check each options

option-A:

x=40

This is positive and whole number

so, this can be domain

so, this is TRUE

option-B:

x=60

This is positive and whole number

so, this can be domain

so, this is TRUE

option-C:

0< x< 40

It also includes decimals numbers

and we know that

x can not be in  decimals

so, this is FALSE

option-D:

0< x< 39

It also includes decimals numbers

and we know that

x can not be in  decimals

so, this is FALSE
