5x + 10 = -4x - 17 
 +4x          +4x

5x + 4x = 9x

9x + 10 = -17
      -10     -10

-27

9x = -27        9x/9 = -27/9

x = -3

this is how you solve for x;

5x + 10 = -4x -17

5x + 4x + 10 = -4x +4x -17 (add 4x on both sides)

9x + 10 = -17

9x +10-10 = -17 -10 (subtract 10 on both sides)

9x = - 27 (next do the inverse operation of x)

x = -27 ÷ 9

x = -3

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5. If the endpoints are located at C(5, -6) and D(11,18) then what are
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

E(29/4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5

The coordinates of C and D are (5, -6) and (11,18) respectively.

We need to find the coordinates of E. Let the coordinates are (x,y). Using section formula to find it as follows :

(x,y)=(\dfrac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2},\dfrac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2})\\\\(x,y)=(\dfrac{3(11)+5(5)}{3+5},\dfrac{3(18)+5(-6)}{3+5})\\\\=\dfrac{29}{4},3

So, the coordinates of E are (29/4,3).

Exercise 1:
 
exponential decay:
 The function is given by:
 y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
 Where,
 A = 600
 We look for b:
 (480/600) * (100) = 80%
 b = 0.8
 Substituting:
 y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
 We check for t = 6
 y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * 6)
 y = 384
 Answer:
 
exponential decay:
 
y = 600 * (0.8) ^ ((1/3) * t)
 Exercise 2:
 
linear:
 The function is given by:
 y = ax + b
 Where,
 a = -60 / 2 = -30
 b = 400
 Substituting we have:
 y = -30 * x + 400
 We check for x = 4
 y = -30 * 4 + 400
 y = 280
 Answer:
 
linear:
 
y = -30 * x + 400
 Exercise 3:
 
exponential growth:
 The function is given by:
 y = A (b) ^ ((1/3) * t)
 Where,
 A = 512
 We look for b:
 (768/512) * (100) = 150%
 b = 1.5
 Substituting:
 y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
 We check for t = 4
 y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * 4)
 y = 1152
 Answer:
 
exponential growth:
 
y = 512 * (1.5) ^ ((1/2) * t)
