Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Combine like terms</u>

7 + -7x + -8 - 9x + 5

7 - 7x - 8 - 9x + 5

4 - 16x

<u>Step 2:  Solve for x</u>

4 - 16x - 4 = 0 - 4

-16x/-16 = -4/-16

x = 4/16

x = 1/4

Answer: x = 1/4

To simplify the expression 7 + -7x + -8 - 9x + 5 we can combine like terms.

= (7 - 8 + 5) + (-7x - 9x)

= 4 - 16x

Put the equation in standard form. (ax^2 + bx + c)

-16x + 4

Best of Luck!

two sides of a triangle measures 25 cm + 35 CM which of the following would be the measure of the third side
Oxana [17]
Assuming those are the legs of the triangle and that you need to find the hypotenuse... I would use the formula: a^2+b^2=c^2
It doesn't matter what a and b are, just fill it in.
25^2+35^2=c^2
625+1225=c^2
1850=c^2
Take the square root of 1850, it isn't a perfect square so I got: 43.01.
If you want, just round it to 43, idc. 
So, if I were to check my work, I would need to remember that the hypotenuse is the longest side.
Since 43 is the hypotenuse, it is the longest side.

You have 2,112 grams of a radioactive kind of mercury. How much will be left after 188 days if it's half-life is 47 days?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

  • 132 g

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial amount = 2112 g
  • Time = 188 days
  • Half-life = 47 days

188 days / 47 days = 4 periods

<u>Mercury left after 188 days:</u>

  • 2112 * (1/2)^4 =
  • 2112* 1/16 =
  • 2112/16 =
  • 132 g

Drag the expressions into the boxes to correctly complete the table. Polynomial Not a polynomial
uranmaximum [27]

The answer to the given question is as below:-

Polynomials:-

x³-7x²+9x-5x⁴-20

x⁵-5x⁴+4x³+2x-1

3x²-5x⁴+2x-12

Non-polynomial:-

x⁻5-5x⁻⁴+4x⁻³+2x⁻1-1

\dfrac{4}{x^4}+ \dfrac{3}{x^3}-\dfrac{2}{x^4}-1

\sqrt[4]{x} -\sqrt[3]{x} 4+\sqrt{x}-8x+16

<h3>What are polynomials?</h3>

A polynomial is a mathematical equation made up of indeterminates and coefficients and involves only addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables. The exponents of the polynomials can not be irrational.

So the table will be formed as:-

Polynomials:-                            Non-polynomial:-        

x³-7x²+9x-5x⁴-20                     x⁻5-5x⁻⁴+4x⁻³+2x⁻1-1        

x⁵-5x⁴+4x³+2x-1                        \dfrac{4}{x^4}+ \dfrac{3}{x^3}-\dfrac{2}{x^4}-1

3x²-5x⁴+2x-12                           \sqrt[4]{x} -\sqrt[3]{x} 4+\sqrt{x}-8x+16

Therefore the polynomials and non-polynomials are shown in the table above.

Which set of data is correct for the quadratic relation f(x) = 5(x -
Burka [1]

Answer:

Direction parabola opens upward.

Vertex of parabola is (27,-9).

Axis of symmetry is x=27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Option sets are not correct.  

The vertex form of a parabola is

y=a(x-h)^2+k    ...(1)

where, (h,k) is vertex and x=h is the axis of symmetry.

If a<0, then parabola opens downward and if a>0, then parabola opens upward.

The given function is

f(x)=5(x-27)^2-9     ...(2)

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

a=5>0, so direction parabola opens upward.

h=27,k=-9, so vertex of parabola is (27,-9).

So, axis of symmetry is x=27.
