Which number sentence is true?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexxx [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because A is incorrect because the -8.9 is in absolute value which mean it will be an 8.9 which is greater than 5.6

C is Incorrect because - 5.6 is not greater than the absolute value of -8.9 which is 8.9, as you can see is greater than -5.6

D is incorrect because the absolute value of 5.6 is still 5.6 and the absolute value of - 8.9 is 8.9 which is greater that 5.6

Help Please solve this picture
Drupady [299]

6y = (x - 4)² + 34/3

6x = (y - 4)² + 34/3

(y - 4)² = 6x - 34/3

y - 4 = √(6x - 34/3)

y = 4 +- √(6x - 34/3)

Factor completely x^3+7x^2-2x-14
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that x + 7 is a factor of the first two terms, and that it is also a factor of the last two terms.  Thus,

x^3+7x^2-2x-14 = (x + 7)(x^2 - 2).

We could carry the factoring further, as follows:

(x + 7)(x^2 - 2) = (x + 7)(x - √2)(x + √2)

Jimmy decides to mow lawns to earn money. The initial cost of his electric lawnmower is ​$350. Electricity and maintenance costs
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

a) C(x) = 4x + 350

b) 13x; $13

c) 39

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Initial cost of lawnmower = $350

Maintenance cost for 1 lawn = $4

Maintenance cost for x lawns = 4x

Total cost function, C(x) = 4x + 350

b) Revenue = Cost + Profit

= C(x) + P(x)

= 4x + 350 + 9x - 350

= 13x

Charge per lawn = \frac{\text{Revenue}}{\text{Number of lawns}}

= \frac{13x}{13} = \$13

c) For Jimmy to make a profit, P(x) must be greater than zero i.e.

P(x) >0

9x-350 >0

9x >350

The smallest integer value of x that satisfies this inequality is 39. Therefore, Jimmy needs to mow 39 lawns in order to start making profit.
