Can someone give me the steps to 8x -2=3x plus 12.25

Mathematics

8x-2=3x+12.25
First, get x on one side by subtracting 3 on both sides->
5x-2=12.25
Then, add 2 on both sides
5x= 14.25
Finally, isolate x by dividing both sides by 5
X=2.85

After t seconds, a ball tossed in the air from the ground level reaches a height of h feet given by the equation h = 144t-16t^2
lesantik [10]
144t-16t^2= 16t(9-t)
after 3 seconds (just substitute t=3):
16(3)(9-3)=
16(3)(6)=
16*18=
288
maximum height: find the average of the roots:
the roots of 16t(9-t) are t=0 or t=9
since it's a parabola, the maximum is at t=4.5, at 324 ft
if its height is 224 feet, the equation is 224=144t-16t^2
16t^2-144t+224=0
divide by 16: t^2-9t+14=0
this can be factored as (t-2)(t-7)=0
the roots are t=2 and t=7, so the ball has been in the air for either 2 seconds or 7 seconds
the roots to 144t-16t^2 are 0 and 9, so the ball will hit the ground 9 seconds after being thrown

Janine babysits for $14.50 per hour. She also works as a dishwasher at her family's restaurant for $9.50 per hour. Her family ne
FrozenT [24]
The system of inequalities are
14.5·x + 9.5·y ≥ 140
7 ≤ y ≤ 10
x + y ≤ 15
2) 14.5·x + 9.5·y ≥ 140 represents the total amount of money Janine can earn
7 ≤ y ≤ 10 represents the range of values, Janine can spend dishwashing
x + y ≤ 15 represents the total number of hours Janine will like to work each week
3) 8 hours babysitting, 7 hours dishwashing
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The amount per hour Janine makes from babysits = $14.50
The amount per hour Janine makes from dishwashing = $9.50
The minimum number of hours Janine can spend dishwashing = 7 hours
The maximum number of hours Janine can spend dishwashing = 10 hours
The maximum number of hours Janine can work each week = 7 hours
The minimum amount she wants to make each week = $140
Let x represent the number of hours Janine spends babysitting and let y represent the number of hours Janine spends dishwashing
1) From the question, we have;
14.5·x + 9.5·y ≥ 140
7 ≤ y ≤ 10
x + y ≤ 15
2) Where
14.5·x + 9.5·y ≥ 140 represents the total amount of money Janine can earn
7 ≤ y ≤ 10 represents the range of values, Janine can spend dishwashing
x + y ≤ 15 represents the total number of hours Janine will like to work each week
Making, y, the subject of the formula of the above inequalities and plotting as functions is given as follows;
y ≥ 140/9.5 - (14.5/9.5)·x
y ≤ 15 - x
3) In order to earn as much money as possible given that the amount Janine earns from babysitting is more than the amount she earns from dishwashing, Janine should spend the least amount of time dishwashing, which is 7 hours, as given, and then spend the remaining 8 hours babysitting to receive $14.5 × 8 + $9.5×7 = $182.5

How do you fine out if y is a linear function of x on a graph
mote1985 [20]

Answer: If a vertical line can be drawn to touch the graph of a function in more than one place, then is NOT a function of . If it is not possible to draw a vertical line to touch the graph of a function in more than one place, then y is a function of x.

Segment XY bisects angle WXZ and angle mZXY = 37 degrees. Find angle mWXY and angle mZXW
Vadim26 [7]

we know that

The angle bisector, is the line or line segment that divides the angle into two equal parts.

So

in this problem

m∠ZXW=m∠WXY+m∠ZXY

m∠WXY=m∠ZXY

Part a) <u>Find the value of m∠WXY</u>

m∠ZXY=37°-----> given value

so

m∠WXY=m∠ZXY=37°

therefore

<u>the answer part a)</u>

The measure of angle WXY is equal to 37°

Part b) <u>Find the value of m∠ZXW</u>

m∠ZXW=m∠WXY+m∠ZXY

m∠ZXW=37°+37°=74°

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is</u>

the measure of angle ZXW is 74 degrees
