The answer is no. because is you substitute the value 3 in for x into the equation and solve you get,

4(3)+3=18 which says 12+3=18 15=18 and that is an untrue statement.
Hope this helps explain the concept so you understand! Any questions feel free to ask! Please rate if I helped you! thank you so much!!

Find the smallest integer n for an O(xn) estimate of order of the function f(x)

alexdok [17]

Answer with explanation:

$f(x)=\frac{(x^3+x^2+5)(x^4-3x^2)}{(2x^2+2x-3)(4x^2+7)}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^3\times (x^4-3x^2)+x^2 \times (x^4-3x^2)+5 \times (x^4-3x^2)}{2x^2\times (4x^2+7)+2x(4x^2+7)-3\times (4x^2+7)}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^7-3x^5+x^6-3x^4+5x^4-15x^2}{8x^4+14x^2+8x^3+14 x-12x^2-21}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^7+x^6-3x^5+2x^4-15x^2}{8x^4+8x^3+2x^2+14 x-21}$

The largest degree of numerator is 7 , while the largest degree of denominator is 4.So, as we know

$\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}\\\\\frac{x^7}{x^4}=x^{7-4}\\\\=x^3$

→So, order of the function is the highest degree in the function raised to power.Highest degree is 3,when you will reduce the function in Expression form.

So, Degree=3

Order=1

you rent a canoe for 5$ per hour.Your cost before the tax is added is 12.50. write and solve an equation to find the total numbe

Basile [38]

Answer: The equation is 5x = 12.50 and you will have the canoe for 2 and half hours or 2 hours 30 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

You rent the canoe for 5 dollars per hour and that can be represented by the expression 5x. After sometime you paid $12.50 meaning that to find the number of hours that you need the canoe, we need to set 5x to equal 12.50.

5x = 12.50 Solve for x by divide both sides by 5.

x = 2.5

This means you will need the canoe for 2 and half hours.

A dairy sells $3 and $5 ice creams. In one day they sell 50 ice creams earning a total of $180. How many of each type of ice cre

murzikaleks [220]

We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream

Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50

3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
