Help!! 2x+3 (x-4)=x-20

Mathematics

prohojiy [21]4 years ago

Remember  you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

2x+3(x-4)=x-20
first distribute
2x+3(x)+3(-4)=x-20
2x+3x-12=x-20
5x-12=x-20
minus x both sides
4x-12=-20
add 12 to both sides
4x=-8
divide both sides by 4
x=-2

How would you explain to someone the rules of a horizontal translation where we are subtracting from the inputs(within the paren
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Ok, we know that we can write a horizontal translation as:

y' = f(x - A)

where if A is positive, this moves the graph of f(x) A units to the right.

Why is this?

Ok, let's compare:

y = f(x)

and

y' = f(x - A)

in y, when x = 0 we have f(0).

While to have this same point in y', we need to evaluate in x = A.

f(A - A) = f(0).

Then the value f(0) is now at x = A, this means that the point moved A units to the right.

And you can do this for all the values, so you will find that the entire graph of f(x) has ben moved A units to the right.

Given the function f(x)=4|x-5|+3 for what values of x is f(x)=15
Andreyy89

Answer:

  {2, 8}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find x for ...

  15 = 4|x -5| +3

  12 = 4|x -5| . . . . subtract 3

  3 = |x -5| . . . . . . divide by 4

  ±3 = x -5 . . . . . . show the meaning of absolute value

  5 ±3 = x = {2, 8} . . . . . add 5

The values of x for which f(x) = 15 are 2 and 8.

The area of the rectangular floor in Tamara's room is 95 5/6 square
White raven [17]
Area of rectangle is width × length
which means area of rectangular floor in Tamara's room = width of room × length of room
-> 95 ⅚ sq feet = 8 ⅓ feet × length of
->(95 + 5/6) sq feet = (8 + 1/3) feet × length of room
->575/6 sq feet = 25/3 feet × length of room
length of room = (575/6)/(25/3)
= 575 × 3/6 × 25)
= 23/2
= 11 ½ feet
