Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2x-6)=96

2x-6=96/8

2x-6=12

2x=12+6

2x=18

x=18/2

x=9

Hello, thanks for usin Brainly. :)

Let's solve by using distributive property.

8(2x-6)=96

16x-6=96

16x-48=96

     +48 +48

16x = 144

x = 9

First, what we did was do 8 x 2 & 6 x 8.

Then, we got 16x-6=96.

We want to get X by itself, therefore we need to get rid of -48, so we 48 to all of our terms.

Then our equation should look like 16x = 144.

Divide and get 9!

Therefore, x = 9.

Wait, how can we be sure?

Let's check our answer.

Let's allow our x value to be 9.

Now, our equation should look like:

8(2(9)-6=96

Follow the PEMDAS rule.

8(18-6)=96

8(12)=96

8 times 12 is 96.

96 = 96 Done!

Therefore, we know our answer is correct.

The position function of a particle moving along a coordinate line is given, wheresis in feet andtis in seconds.
Sati [7]

Answer:

a) s = (4-t)/(t^2+4)^2,   a(t) = (2t^3-24t)/(t^2+4)^3

b) s = 0.2ft, v = 0.12 ft/s,  a = -0.176 ft/s^2

c) t = 2s

d) slowing down for t < 2, speeding up for t > 2

e) 0.327 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function of a particle is given by:

s(t)=\frac{t}{t^2+4},\ \ \ t\geq  0   (1)

a) The velocity function is the derivative, in time, of the position function:

v(t)=\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{(1)(t^2+4)-t(2t)}{(t^2+4)^2}=\frac{4-t^2}{(t^2+4)^2}   (2)

The acceleration is the derivative of the velocity:

a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{(-2t)(t^2+4t)^2-(4-t^2)2(t^2+4)(2t)}{(t^2+4)^4}\\\\a(t)=\frac{(-2t)(t^2+4)-4t(4-t^2)}{(t^2+4)^3}=\frac{2t^3-24t}{(t^2+4)^3} (3)

b) For t = 1 you have:

s(1)=\frac{1}{1+4}=0.2\ ft\\\\v(1)=\frac{4-1}{(1+4)^2}=0.12\frac{ft}{s}\\\\a(1)=\frac{2-24}{(1+4)^3}=-0.176\frac{ft}{s^2}

c) The particle stops for v(t)=0. Then you equal equation (2) to zero ans solve the equation for t:

v(t)=\frac{4-t^2}{(t^2+4)^2}=0\\\\4-t^2=0\\\\t=2

For t = 2s the particle stops.

d) The second derivative evaluated in t=2 give us the concavity of the position function.

\frac{d^2s}{dt^2}=a(2)=\frac{2(2)^3-24(2)}{(2^2+4)^3}=-0.062

Then, the concavity of the position function is negative. For t=2 there is a maximum. Before t=2 the particle is slowing down and after t=2 the particle is speeding up.

e) Due to particle goes and come back. You first calculate s for t=2, then calculate for t=5.

s(2)=\frac{2}{2^2+4}=0.25\ ft

s(5)=\frac{5}{5^2+4}=0.172\ ft

The particle travels 0.25 in the first 2 seconds. In the following three second the particle comes back to the 0.172\ ft. Then, in the second trajectory the particle travels:

0.25 - 0.127 = 0.077 ft

The total distance is the sum of the distance of the two trajectories:

s_total = 0.25 ft + 0.077 ft = 0.327 ft

Find the GCF of 12x^4y, 16xy^2, and 20y^3
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

12x^4y^ = 2 * 2 * 3 * x^4*y\\\\16xy^2 = 2*2*2*2*x* y^2\\\\20y^3 = 2*2*4*y^3\\\\GCF = 2 * 2 * y=4y

Let,
The number be "x"

According to the question,

x² + 5x = 176
x² + 5x - 176 = 0
x² + 16x - 11x - 176 = 0
x (x + 16) - 11 ( x + 16) = 0
(x + 16) (x - 11) = 0

Now,
Using zero product property:

Either,
x + 16 = 0
x = -16

Or,
x - 11 = 0
x = 11

So,
The number is either "-16" or "11".
