Answer:

h(5) = - 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that h is a linear function say, h(x) = ax + b ......... (1)

Now, given that h(1) = 10 and h(3) = - 6  

Hence, we can write from equation (1), a(1) + b = 10, ⇒ a + b = 10 .......... (2)

And a(3) + b = - 6, ⇒ 3a + b = - 6 ........ (3)

Now, solving equations (2) and (3) we get (3a - a) = - 6 - 10

⇒ 2a = - 16

⇒ a = - 8

So, from equation (2), we get, b = 10 - a = 18  

Therefore, the linear function is

h(x) = - 8x + 18

Hence, h(5) = - 8(5) + 18 = - 22 (Answer)

Answer:

AC = 16 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = CD = 10 in.

BD = 6 in.

AC = 2(AB) = ?

Apply pythagorean theorem to find AB

AB² = AD² - BD²

Substitute

AB² = 10² - 6²

AB² = 64

AB = √64

AB = 8

Therefore:

AC = 2(AB) = 2(8)

AC = 16 in.

Ipatiy [6.2K]
<span>If Dingane has $8.00, and thirty percent of that money is from five cent coins, then 8 x 0.3 = $2.40 of Dingane's money is made of five cent coins. In this case the number of five cent coins is the number of cents divided by five: 240/5 = 48. Therefore, Dingane has forty-eight five-cent coins.</span>

Answer:

A linear algebraic equation is nice and simple, containing only constants and variables to the first degree (no exponents or fancy stuff). To solve it, simply use multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction when necessary to isolate the variable and solve for "x". Here's how you do it: 4x + 16 = 25 -3x =
