It's A.

You've got 3 as a coefficient on both sides, so you can divide both sides by 3 to cancel them out. Then you've got:

x + 4 = x - 5

You know that this can't have a solution because there is no value x where if you add 4 to it and subtract 5 from it, you'll get the same thing.

So, the problem with the equation is that the x values have to be the same, but the constant numbers added/subtracted are different.

1. Determine if the set of ordered pairs is a relation or a function.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

This is just a relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is easy to see if a set of ordered pairs is a relation or a relation that is a function.

If all the points are distinct, then you just have to look at the $x$ -coordinates.

If all the $x$ -coordinates are different, then it is a function. Otherwise, it is a just a relation.

So this cannot be a function because there is at least two different points that have $x=0$ .

If y varies directly as the square root of x and y=12 when x = 16 , find x when y = 15

= 19 this is the answer I'm guessing since 16-12= 4 so 16 is 4 more than 12

Multiply (-8x - 9)(-9x2 + 7x - 9).

Misha Larkins [42]

= <span>(-8x - 9)(-9x2 + 7x - 9)

= 72x</span>³ - 56x² + 72x + 81x² - 63x + 81

= 72x³ + 25x² + 9x + 81

In short, Your Answer would be: Option D

Why can't you use the product of powers rule to simplify<br> this expression? Explain.<br> 3^4•2^8

MAVERICK [17]

To use the product of powers rule, the powers must have the same base. In this expression, the bases are 3 and 2, which are different, so the rule does not apply.

Lot B has half the spaces of lot A, so will have half the cars: 1,250.
