Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+1 = 8x-51

subtract 1 from both sides

4x+1-1=8x-51-1

Simplify

4x=8x-52

Subtract 8x from both sides

4x-8x=8x-52-8x

Simplify

-4x=-52

Divide both sides by -4

-4x/-4= -52/-4

Simplify

x=13

Which choice is equivalent to the quotient below shown here when x>0?

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Choice B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The given radical division can be expressed in the following form;

$\frac{\sqrt{16x^{3} } }{\sqrt{8x} }$

Using the properties of radical division, the expression can be expressed in the following form;

$\sqrt{\frac{16x^{3} }{8x} }=\sqrt{2x^{2} }$

Simplifying further yields;

$\sqrt{2x^{2} }=\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{x^{2} }=x\sqrt{2}$

Choice B is thus the correct alternative

If f(x) =7 +4x and g(x) =1/2 what is the value of (f/g)

saw5 [17]

Answer:

10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (f/g)(5), find f(5) and (g5) then divide the values.

f(5) = 7 + 4(5) = 27

g(5) = 1/2 (5) = 2.5

27/2.5 = 10.8
