– 72 = 3(- 4x – 8) Need help

Mathematics
1 answer:
Finger [1]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-72 = 3(-4x - 8)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute 3:</u> -72 = -12x - 24

<u>Add 24 to both sides:</u> -48 = -12x

<u>Divide both sides by -12:</u> x = 4

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>

-72 = 3(-4(4) - 8)

-72 = 3(-16 - 8)

-72 = 3(-24)

-72 = -72

Answer:

There are two main types of correlation coefficients: Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. The correct usage of correlation coefficient type depends on the types of variables being studied. We will focus on these two correlation types; other types are based on these and are often used when multiple variables are being considered.

dimulka [17.4K]
Given that the allowance is variable. It varies in a week.
Let X = be your allowance.

Monday to Wednesday, you already incurred
Monday = X / 2
Tuesday = Monday / 2
Wednesday = Tuesday / 2

The money left you have will be
Money left = X - (Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday)

The transformations to the parent function of a quadractic equation are given below. Write an equation of the new function in ve
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

  f(x) = x^2 -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is translated down 3 units by subtracting 3 from the function value. For the parent function f(x) = x^2, the translated function is ...

  f(x) = x^2 -3

_____

<em>Comment on vertex form</em>

The full "vertex form" has the values of the vertex coordinates in the equation explicitly. For vertex (h, k), the form is ...

  f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k

We have moved the vertex from (0, 0) to (0, -3). The vertical scale factor (a) remains 1. So, we could write the equation as ...

  f(x) = 1(x -0)^2 -3 . . . . vertex form with unnecessary parts shown

Removing the identity elements doesn't change anything (though it requires a little practice to see them when they aren't there). So, with minor simplification, this becomes ...

  f(x) = x^2 -3

If a monopolist supplies goods at a price; P = 170 - Q, with marginal cost; MC = 52. Find the quantity and price
Arada [10]

Answer:

Quantity = 59 units

Price = $111

Step-by-step explanation:

The Demand function is given by

P = 170 - Q

The Marginal cost is given by

MC = 52

We are asked to find the quantity and price of goods.

Firstly, obtain the Marginal revenue function from the demand function

The Total revenue is given by

TR = P \times Q \\\\TR = (170 - Q) \times Q \\\\TR = 170Q - Q^2

The Marginal revenue is the derivative of the Total revenue,

MR = \frac{d}{dQ} (TR) = 170Q - Q^2 \\\\MR = \frac{d}{dQ} (TR) = 170 - 2Q \\\\

Assuming that the monopolist maximizes profits,

MR = MC \\\\170 - 2Q = 52\\\\2Q = 170 - 52\\\\2Q = 118\\\\Q = 118/2\\\\Q = 59

Therefore, the quantity is 59 units.

The price of each good is

P = 170 - Q \\\\P = 170 - 59 \\\\P = 111

Therefore, the price is $111.
