10 - 3(3x - 40) = -9x A)x = -9 B)no solution C)x = 10 D)all real numbers

1 answer:

3 0

Remove the brackets on the left
10 - 9x + 120 = - 9x You get a bizarre result no matter what you try to do to resolve this. If you say any number will do pick, a number at random for x. Say 10

10 - 90 + 120 = -90 Is this statement true? No. You only need 1 exception but 0 is a popular number to look for answers. Will it work?
10 - 0 + 120 = 0 That doesn't work either.

There is no number you could pick that that would give you anything but 10 + 120 = 0

A 100 inch strip of sheet metal starting out 16 inches wide is to be made into a small open trough (open top and ends) by turnin

daser333 [38]

Answer:

4 inches should be turned up on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, create a situation in which we give the amount turned up on each side as x. Then give the amount that isn't turned up as 16 - 2x (since 2x is the amount turned up). Now we can find the area by multiplying the 3 measurements.

100 * x * (16 - 2x) = MAX

100 * (16x - 2x^2) = MAX

-200x^2 + 1600x = MAX

Now that we have a quadratic function, we can find the maximum value of x by using the vertex formula for x values (-b/2a).

x = -b/2a

x = -1600/2(-200)

x = -1600/-400

x = 4

The math club is selling T-shirts to raise money. Each T-shirt sold represents a profit of $2. The club has a total of 500 T-

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

2 < or equal to (t) < or equal to 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

2 is the profit of the (t) amount of t shirts so the amount should be greater than or equal too 1000 because if they have 500 shirts 500 x 2 is 1000

Is line 1 (1,5) (3,-2) and like 2 (-3,2) (4,0) perpendicular of parallel?

Lera25 [3.4K]

Slope Formula: $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

So remember that perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals to each other and parallel lines have the same slope. To find out if they are either parallel or perpendicular, plug the pair of points into the slope formula to find their slopes:

$\textsf{Line 1}\\\\\frac{5-(-2)}{1-3}=-\frac{7}{2}\\\\\textsf{Line 2}\\\\\frac{0-2}{4-(-3)}=-\frac{2}{7}$
