Answer: w = 7, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation: Solve by substitution
W + b = 13
rewrite as b = 13 - w and substitute that value for b in the second equation
6.5w + 2b = 57.5 Then solve for w
6.5w + 2(13-w) = 57.5 . Distribute
6.5w + 26 - 2w = 57.5 . Subtract 26 from both sides. Combine like terms and simplify
6.5w - 2w = 57.5 - 26
4.5w = 31.5 Divide both sides by 4.65
w = 7 . Substitute 7 for w in the first equation and solve for b
7 + b = 13 . Subtract 7 from both sides
b = 6
Answer:
See below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. |x| = 6
x = 6, -6.
b. |x − 5| = 4
x - 5 = 4
x = 9.
x - 5 = -4
x = 1.
c. 2|x + 3| = −10
No solution because |x + 3| is an absolute value so is always positive.
x/3+17is less than or equal to 15
x/3is less than or equal to 15-17
xis less than or equal to -6
A. The data in the table represent a function. y=x/2. This is seen as for every value of x in the table, y=x/2(half of it). You can show this further by trying this fact on each value.
B. For the original function, when x =8, y=x/2=4
For the function given in this part, when x=8, y=3(8)-10
y=24-10 y=14
This means the relation given in this part has a greater value when x=8
C. When x=80, f(x)=3(80)-10
=240-10
=230
