Steps:

4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20

Group like terms:

4x + 8 = 2x + 2x + 7 - 20

Add similar elements: 2x + 2x = 4x

4x + 8 =4x + 7 - 20

Add/Subtract the numbers: 7 - 20 = -13

4x + 8 = 4x - 13

Subtract 8 from both sides

4x + 8 - 8 = 4x - 13 - 8

Simplify:

4x = 4x - 21

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x - 4x = 4x - 21 - 4x

Simplify

0 = -21

Hope this helps! :) and Happy Halloween! ~Zane

PLEASE HELP!!

Answer:

Part 1) The inverse function is f^{-1}(x) =\frac{2x-3}{4}

Part 2) 25.75 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---->the number of weeks in the  course

f(x) ---> the number of assignments he has completed

we have

f(x)=\frac{4x-3}{2}

Part 1) Find the inverse

Let

y=f(x)

y=\frac{4x-3}{2}

Exchange the variables (x for y and y for x)

x=\frac{4y-3}{2}

Isolate the variable y

2x=4y-3\\4y=2x+3\\\\y=\frac{2x+3}{4}

Let

f^{-1}(x) =y

so

f^{-1}(x) =\frac{2x+3}{4}

Part 2) we have

f^{-1}(x) =\frac{2x+3}{4}

where

f^{-1}(x) ---->the number of weeks in the  course

x ---> the number of assignments he has completed

For x=50

substitute in the inverse function

f^{-1}(x) =\frac{2(50)+3}{4}=25.75\ weeks

Note: Juliana don't need to use the inverse function. you can just use the function you have where f(x)=50 assignments and solve for x to get the amount of weeks.

so

50=\frac{4x-3}{2}\\\\100=4x-3\\4x=103\\x=25.75\ weeks

Identify the equation of the circle that has its center at (-27,120)And passes through the orgin
12345 [234]
The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2. Where "x" and "y" are variables, "h" and "k" are the coordinates of the center of the circle, and "r" is the length of the radius. It is given that the center of the circle is (-27, 120). So, h= -27 and k= 120. If the circle passes through the origin, we can assume that the origin is on the circle. Since a circle's radius is constant no matter where it is drawn/is, we can find the radius of the circle by finding the distance between the circle's center (-27, 120) and the origin, (0, 0). The distance formula is: d= √((x[2]-x[1])^2-(y[2]-y[1])^2). If the coordinates of the center of the circle are (x[2}, y[2]), then x[2]= -27 and y[2]= 120. Then, the origin is the (x[1], y[1]). So, x[1] = 0 and y[1] = 0. Plugging the numbers in we get: √((-27-0)^2-(120-0)^2). This gives us √(729+14400) = 123. So since the distance between the center of the circle and a point on the circle is 123 (units), then the radius has a value of 123.

Plugging all the numbers into the equation of a circle, we get: (x-(-27))^2+(y-120)^2=123^2.
