Answer:

The number you are looking for is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Half the difference of the fourth multiple of a number and 16 equaling 6 looks like this equation:

N - 16/2 = 6.

The first step to finding the value of "N" is to multiply each side by 2.

2(N - 16/2) = 2(6).

The result is N - 16 = 12.

Next, you need to isolate "N" by itself.

Perform inverse operations to get "N" by itself. We need to get rid of -16.

The inverse operation of subtraction is addition.

So add 16 to both sides.

N - 16 + 16 = 12 + 16.

The result is N = 28.

That means the number that makes the problem true is 28.

Let's check to make sure by plugging 28 into the original equation.

28 - 16/2 = 6.

12/2 = 6.

6 = 6.

So the answer to this question is that the number is 28.

f(x) = −16x2 + 24x + 16 Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work. (2 points) Part B: Is the vertex
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = −16x^2 + 24x + 16

Set equal to zero to find the x intercepts

0  = −16x^2 + 24x + 16

Factor out -8

0 = -8(2x^2 -3x-2)

Factor

0 = -8(2x +1) (x-2)

Using the zero product property

2x+1 =0    x-2 =0

x = -1/2      x=2

The x intercepts are -1/2   ,2

Since the coefficient of x^2 is negative the graph will open down and the vertex will be a maximum

The x value of the maximum is 1/2 way between the zeros

(-1/2+2) /2 = 1.5/2 =.75

To find the y value substitute into the function

f(.75) = -8(2x +1) (x-2)

        =-8(2*.75+1) (.75-2)

        = -8(2.5)(-1.25)

         =25

The vertex is at (.75, 25)

We have the zeros, and  the vertex.  We know the graph is symmetrical about the vertex

How can you determine the difference between an arithmetic and geometric sequence if you are given the first 4 terms of the sequ
Bess [88]
Compute successive differences of the terms.

If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.

If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.


Example of arithmetic sequence:
  1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.

Example of geometric sequence:
  1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.

Please help me, I'm being timed
ki77a [65]

Answer:

1.5x=6

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is length times width so 1.5 times x is the correct equation. Make x equal to one by dividing both sides by 1.5. x=6/1.5. Simplify this to get x=4.
