n200080 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 320

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1/4 of the calories in a chocolate - 10 = calories in an apple

Equation

    Calories in a chocolate bar = 4(calories in apple + ten)

                                                                    = 4(70 + 10)

                                                                    = 4(80)

                                                                   = 320

Solve for x: 2 over 3 equals the quantity x minus 1 end quantity over 5
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

13 over 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Jakeyriabryant! I hope you’re fine!

I hope I have understood the problem well.

If so, what the exercise raises is the following equality:

(x-1) / 5 = 2/3

From this equation you must clear the "x".

First, we pass the 5 that is dividing on the side of the x, to the other side and passes multiplying

(X – 1) / 5 = 2/3  

(X – 1) = (2/3)*5

X – 1 = 10/3

Then we pass the one that is subtracting from the side of the x, to the other side and passes adding

X  = 10/3 + 1

Remember that to add or subtract fractions they must have the same denominator or a common denominator (in this case we can write 1 as fraction 3/3). Then,

X = 10/3 + 3/3

X = 13/3

I hope I've been helpful!

Regards!

f(x)=2x. If g(x) is a vertical stretch, compression, and or reflection of f(x) followed by a, what is the equation of g(x)?
Montano1993 [528]

The function g(x) is g(x)= (3x)^2

<h3>How to solve for g(x)?</h3>

The complete question is in the image

From the graph in the image, we have:

f(x) = x^2

The function f(x) is stretched by a factor of 3 to form g(x).

This means that:

g(x) = f(3x)

So, we have:

g(x)= (3x)^2

Hence, the function g(x) is g(x)= (3x)^2
