Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/3x + 9 = 4/3x - 3

First we need to simplify to where we have x on one side and a constant (number not connected to a variable) on the other side.

Subtract 4/3x from both sides:

-2/3x + 9 - 4/3x = -3

-6/3x + 9 = -3

Now subtract 9 from both sides:

-6/3x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9

-6/3x = -12

Now turn -6/3 into a whole number to make things more simple:

-6/3 = -2

-2x = -12

Now divide both sides by -2 to get x by itself

-2x/-2 = -12/-2

x = -6

A farmer is tracking the amount of corn his land is yielding each year. He finds that the function f(x) = −x2 + 20x + 50 models

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The crop yield increased by 9 pounds per acre from year 1 to year 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we are using the average rate of change formula: $Av=\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}$ , where:

$x_2$ is the second point in the function

$x_1$ is the first point in the function

$f(x_2)$ is the function evaluated at the second point

$f(x_1)$ is the function evaluated at the first point

We know that the first point is 1 year and the second point is 10 years, so $x_1=1$ and $x_2=10$ . Replacing values:

$Av=\frac{-(10)^2+20(10)+50-[-(1)^2+20(1)+50]}{10-1}$

$Av=\frac{-100+200+50-[-1+20+50]}{9}$

$Av=\frac{150-[69]}{9}$

$Av=\frac{150-69}{9}$

$Av=\frac{81}{9}$

$Av=9$

Since $f(x)$ represents the number of pounds per acre and $x$ the number of years, we can conclude that the crop yield increased by 9 pounds per acre from year 1 to year 10.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Answer:

4.8 gigabytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of gigabytes of data = x

Xavier pays a flat cost of $44 per month and $3 per gigabyte. He wants to keep his bill at $58.40 per month.

The above expression above is represented by the equation:

$44 + $3 × x = $58.40

44 + 3x = 58.40

Solving for x

Subtract 44 from both sides

44 - 44 + 3x = 58.40 - 44

3x = 14.4

x = 14.4/3

x = 4.8 gigabytes
