Answer:

x= -43 or x=57

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply absolute value rule: If |u|=a, a>0 then u=a or u=-a

So applying that to our equation:

|x-7|=50, x-7 can either equal +50 or -50 so we solve for both

x-7= -50 ---> x= -43

x-7=50 ---> x=57

I hope this helps!

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? (A)y ≤1/3 x − 1 (B)y ≥ x − 1 (C)y < 3x − 1 (D)y > 3x − 1

lubasha [3.4K]

The equation of the line is $\boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.$

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope $m$ and intercept $c$ is given as follows.

$\boxed{y = mx + c}$

The formula for slope of line with points $\left( {{x_1},{y_1}} \right)$ and $\left( {{x_2},{y_2}} \right)$ can be expressed as,

$\boxed{m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}}$

Given:

Explanation:

The line intersects y-axis at $\left( {0, - 1} \right)$ . Therefore, the y-intercept is $-1.$

The line passes through the points $\left( {0, - 1} \right)$ and $\left( {3,0} \right).$

The slope can be obtained as follows,

$\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{0- \left( {- 1} \right)}}{{3 - 0}}\\&= \frac{1}{3}\\\end{aligned}$

Substitute $\dfrac{1}{3}$ for m, $3$ for $x$ and $0$ for $y$ in equation $y = mx + c$ to obtain the value of $c$ .

$\begin{aligned}0& \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3 + c\\- 1&=c\\\end{aligned}$

To check whether the equation includes origin substitute 0 for x and 0 for y in equation $y \geqslant \dfrac{1}{3}x - 1.$

$\begin{aligned}0&\geqslant \frac{1}{3} \times 0 - 1 \\0&\geqslant - 1\\\end{gathered}$

The statement is true. The equation contains origin.

The equation of the line is $\boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.$

Missing number in the series 9, ____, 6561, 43046721 is: 81 25 62 31 18 9. one number is 2 more than 3 times another. their sum

Nadusha1986 [10]

Alright, lets get started.

Missing number fom the series : 9, ..... , 6561, 43046721

43046721 is square of its previous number 6561, means

$6561^2 = 43046721$

It means the missing number will be square of its previous number

Means $9^2 = 81$ , so missing number is 81. : Answer

Next : one number is 2 more than 3 times another. their sum is 22. find the numbers.

Suppose one number is x and second number is y

As per given equation, $x = 3y + 2$ ......equation (1)

Their sum is 22 means, $x+y = 22$ .......equation (2)

Putting the value of x from equation1 into equation 2

$3y + 2 + y = 22$

$4y + 2 = 22$

Subtracting 2 in both sides

$4y + 2 - 2 = 22 - 2$

$4y = 20$

$y = 5$

$x = 22 - y = 22 - 5 = 17$

Means numbers are 17 and 5. : Answer

Next : the missing number in the series 1, 4, 27,____, 3125 is

1 could be written as 1

4 could be written as $2^2$

27 could be written as $3^3$

So , next number would be $4^4$

$4^4 = 256$

Next one is $5^5 = 3125$

So, the missing number is 256 : Answer

Next : the next number in the series 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10 is

After 3,4 (5) is mising, 6, 7 (8) is missing, 9, 10 (11) will be missing

So, next number will be 12. : Answer

Next : a farmer is planting a straight row of crops with 3 feet between each plant. if 23 are planted, what is the distance between the first and last plant?

Between 2 plants, the distance is = $3 * (2-1) = 3$

Between 3 plants, the distance is = $3 * (3-1) = 6$

So, between 23 plants, the distance is = $3 * (23-1) = 3 * 22 = 66$

hene the distance between first and last plant woule be 66 feet. : Answer
