Y = 12x - 5x - 2

first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):

12x - 5x = 7x

y = 7x - 2

Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)

y = 7x - 2

y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7

x = (y + 2)/7


x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer

hope this helps

X intercept = when the graph cuts the x-axis = when y = 0


y = 12x^2 -5x -2

when y = 0
12x^2 -5x -2 = 0
(3x - 2) (4x + 1) = 0
x = 2/3 or x = 1/4

So the x-intercept are (2/3, 0) and (1/4, 0)

An angle measures 10° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?​
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The two angles are 85 and 95 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180

Let x be one angle

The supplement is 10 less,  ( x-10)

They add to 180

x+ ( x-10) = 180

2x -10 = 180

Add 10 to each side

2x-10+10 =180-10

2x= 190

Divide by 2

2x/2 =190/2

x=95

The other angle is 95-10 = 85

The two angles are 85 and 95 degrees

Rewrite the equation in standard form y= 4/5x+0.85. Enter answer as ax+by=c or ax+by+c=0
Paraphin [41]

At very minimum, move (4/5)x to the other side of the given equation.  Then:

-(4/5)x + y = 0.85.  This is the equation in standard form.

Two companies, A and B, package snack-size bags of cashews. Let X represent the weight of the packages from company A, and let Y
Vitek1552 [10]

The answer choice that correctly calculates and interprets the standard deviation of the sum, S = X + Y is D. Sigma Subscript s = 0.8; companies A and B can expect the total weight of packages to vary by approximately 0.8 ounces from the mean.

<h3>What does the standard deviation means?</h3>

A standard deviation means the all measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. It should be noted that low standard deviation means that the data are clustered around the mean, and the high standard deviation means that the data are more spread out.

In this case, the answer choice that correctly calculates and interprets the standard deviation of the sum, S = X + Y is the sigma Subscript s = 0.8; companies A and B can expect the total weight of packages to vary by approximately 0.8 ounces from the mean.

In conclusion, the correct option is D.

In circle O, AC and BD are diameters.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

mArc A B = 120° (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

In circle O, AC and BD are diameters.

Circle O is shown. Line segments B D and A C are diameters. A radius is drawn to cut angle D O C into 2 equal angle measures of x. Angles A O D and B O C also have angle measure x.

What is mArc A B?

a)72°

b) 108°

c) 120°

d) 144°

Solution:

Find attached the diagram of the question.

Let P be the radius drawn to cut angle D O C into 2 equal angle measures of x

From the diagram,

m Arc AOC = 180° (sum of angle in a semicircle)

∠AOD + ∠DOP + ∠COP = 180° (sum of angles on a straight line)

x° +x° + x° =180°

3x = 180

x = 180/3

x = 60°

m Arc DOB = 180° (sum of angle in a semicircle)

∠AOB + ∠AOD = 180° (sum of angles on a straight line)

∠AOB + x° = 180

∠AOB + 60° = 180°

∠AOB = 180°-60°

∠AOB = 120°

mArc A B = 120°
