29 miles
because town y is between town x and town z so you can take the distance between town x and town z and subtract the distance from town y to town z
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
You have the following equation given in the problem above:
<span>-2(bx - 5) = 16
</span> When you solve for bx, you have:
<span>-2(bx - 5) = 16
-2bx-10=16
-2bx=26
bx=26/-2
bx=-13
When you solve for b, you obtain:
</span><span>-2(bx - 5) = 16
-2bx=26
b=-(26/2x)
When yoo solve for x:
</span>2bx=26
x=-(26/2b)<span>
</span>
Answer:
x= -8
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x-12=8x+12
5x-12=8x+12
5x-8x=12+12
-3x=24
24/-3
x= -8
I think the answer is either 3/49 or about 0.061
hope this helps.
Let's plug in a few points to see which graph belongs to the function f(x) = 2x^2
Let's say x =0, let's find y!
2(0)^2 = 2(0) = 0
So one point on our line is (0.0)
Just finding this point right here eliminates 3 of the answer choices. Your answer is the graph that goes through the point (0,0)
For your added convenience, I have attached the graph. :)
