Answer: He is not correct.

Steps:

Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.

x_2 = \frac{5}{4}x_1\\\frac{4}{5}x_2 =x_1

In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),

then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.

Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate
Charra [1.4K]

Option A and B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following systems of equation:

2x + 6y = 12 \\4x + 3y = 15

We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.

Checking the options:

a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30

If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

b)  Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.

If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

So, Option A and B are correct.

Which set of steps will translate f(x)=6x to g(x)=6x-5-7
Maurinko [17]

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

Which set of steps will translate f(x) = 6x to g(x) = 6x – 5 – 7?

Shift f(x) = 6x five units to the left and seven units up.

Shift f(x) = 6x five units to the right and seven units down.

Shift f(x) = 6x seven units to the right and five units up.

Shift f(x) = 6x seven units to the left and five units down.

Answer:

Shift f(x)=6x five units to the left and seven units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told to translate the function below

f(x) = 6x to g(x) = 6x – 5 – 7

Which means the process to translate f(x) into g(x) is required.

According to the translation rule

f(x)-------->f(x)+a

If a<0 it shift to downward

If a>0 it shift to upward

Then we have

(X,y) ----->((x - 5, y)

There is a shift by x coordinates towards left by 5 units

then we would have the function as

f'(x) = 6(x-5)

Following the translation rule there is a shift by the function by 7 units downward direction then we have

(x,y) ----->(x,y -7)

Then we have g(x) = 6x – 5 – 7 as our translation product.

Therefore, shift f(x)=6x five units to the left and seven units down.

On an average day, a garden snail can travel about 0.05 mile. The snail travels 0.2 times as far as the average distance on day
daser333 [38]

Answer: 0.04 miles

 

SOLUTION

 

Given,

Average daily distance of a garden = 0.05 mile.

 

Distance traveled on day 1 = 0.2 times as far as the average distance

= 0.2 x 0.05 miles

= 0.01 miles

 

Distance traveled on day 2 = 0.6 times as far as the average distance

= 0.6 x 0.05 miles

= 0.03 miles

 

Total distance traveled in two days

= Distance traveled on day 1 + Distance traveled on day 2

= 0.01 miles + 0.03 miles

= 0.04 miles
