Answer:
c = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3(c+5)=12
3 × c = 3c
3 × 5 = 15
3c + 15 = 12
<u> - 15 -15</u>
3c = -3
c = -3 ÷ 3 = -1
Check:
3(-1+5)=12
-3 + 15 = 12
Answer:
3): 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem states that ABC and DEF are similar. Therefore, dsue to similar triangles, we have 7x/7=4/x, so x^2=4. Therefore, x=2 (because x cannot be negative). Therefore, AB = 7x = 7*2=14
Answer:
2, the second number line.
Step-by-step explanation:
-1 x 1/2 = -0.5
Answer:
Put an open dot on -10 and an open dot on 1 and draw a line between them
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:
(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,
so that now you have to plot 2 functions!
For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:
|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x
Then:
for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3
for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:
y= x-4-7 = x-11,
Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11
In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:
x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3
And just x=5 for y=x-11
The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:
x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7
x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!
abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
