(a) 3x=4(x-2.25) (or simplified: 3x=4x-9)

(b) 3x=4x-9
0=x-9
x=$9

(c) 3x9=27
4x9=36
36-9=27
and 27=27 therefore they spent the same and it is correct

(d) Tanya's items cost $9 each and Tony's items cost $2.25 less than this, or $6.75

Hey there!

<h2>ANSWER: </h2>

Non linear

<h2>EXPLANATION:</h2>

Is 2^x=8 linear or non-linear.

Since x has an exponent value that is equal to 2, it's non-linear. So that means 2^x=8 is non-linear.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

(Y+4)=-7(x-2)

Y+4=-7x+2

Y+7x=2-4

Please help ASAP it is due today
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know

total sum of angles = 540 deg

3/2 b cam also be written as 1.5b degrees.

So 1.5b + (b+45) + (2b - 90) +90 = 540

Step 1 -- get rid of parenthesis

         1.5b + b + 45 +2b -90 +90 =540

Step 2 -- combine the like expressions

         4.5b + 45 = 540

Step 3 -- subtract 45 from both the sides

         4.5b = 495

Step 4 -- divide 4.5 from both the sides

         b = 110  ----- not the right answer

Thats not right okay im sorry

but i guess if it is not 110 it should be 100, 90 etc.

90 = b is correct

Find the domain of the function (f/g)(x) given f (x)=x^2-4x-5 and g(x)=x^2-25
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

all real numbers except ±5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each function (f(x), g(x)) has a domain that is all real numbers. Their quotient (f(x)/g(x)) must exclude values that make g(x) = 0. The quotient is undefined when the denominator is zero. Those excluded values are x = ±5.

The domain of (f/g)(x) is all real numbers except ±5.

___

Of course you recognize x^2 -25 = 0 has solutions x = ±√25 = ±5. You can get there two ways:

  1. add 25 and take the square root: x^2=25; x=±√25.
  2. factor the difference of squares and set the factors to zero: (x-5)(x+5)=0 has solutions x-5=0 and x+5=0, that is, x = ±5.
