Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x - 2 = -29

Add two to both sides:

3x - 2 + 2 = -29 + 2

3x = -27

Divide both sides by three:

$\frac{3x}{3}= \frac{-27}{3}$

$x = -9$

One counting number is 4 times great as a counting number.The product of the two number is 36.What is the sum of the two number

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The sum of the two numbers is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the counting numbers be x and y.

Then we can write the following equations

x=4y.......1 (one is four times greater )

x(y)=36.....2 (the product of the two)

Putting equation 1 into equation 2, we get

4y(y)=36

${4y}^{2} = 36$

Dividing through by 4,we get

${y}^{2} = \frac{36}{4}$

${y}^{2} = 9$

Taking square root of both side, we obtain

y=3

Putting the value of y into equation , we get

x=4(3)=12

Hence the numbers are 3 and 12

Therefore the sum of the two numbers is 3+12=15

What is the range of the function on the graph?all real numbersO all real numbers less than or equal to -1all real numbers less

Yuki888 [10]

The range of the function f(x) is the set of all values that function f takes.

The domain of the function f(x) is the set of all possible values for x.

From the given graph you can see that the domain is all real numbers, $x\in (-\infty,\infty).$

The maximal y-value that f takes is 3 at x=-1. For all another x from the domain, y is less than 3.

Thus, the range of the given function is $y\in (-\infty,3].$

Answer: $y\in (-\infty,3].$

Fofino [41]

Answer:For this case we have that by definition it is fulfilled:

Where:

a: It is the base

b: It is the exponent

So, if we have the following expression:

-6 to the power of 4, is equivalent to:

So we have to:

-6: It is the base

4: It is the exponent

-6: It is the base

4: It is the exponent

What are the coordinates of the orthocenter of LMN ?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

a (1, 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

When talking about the orthocenter, you want to make sure that the point you are looking for is in the exact center. Since coordinate N of the x value is 1, we can safely assume that your top two choices are either a and b. B wouldn't work since it is not at the exact center which makes your answer A.
