Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2 =8

Let x =2

5(2) -2 =8

10 -2 =8

8=8

The guess is true

Which graph represents the function f(x)= 0.2^x + 3

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To determine which of the given graphs represents the equation $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3$ , we substitute some values in the place of x.

When $x=0,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(0) = 0.2^{0} + 3= 4.$

Anything with an exponent of 0 will equal 1.

So the graphs on the right side cannot be the answers.

Step 2:

Now we substitute another value to determine which graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

When $x=1,$ $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(1) = 0.2^{1} + 3= 4.2.$

The value of f(x) when $x=1$ is lesser than the value of f(x) when $x =0.$

So the third graph or bottom left graph represents $f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.$

The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 1830 dollars for 100 kg of waste and 2460 dollars for 135 kg of waste. (a)

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$C=18w+30$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 1830 dollars for 100 kg of waste

So, $(x_1,y_1)=(100,1830)$

We are also given that The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 2460 dollars for 135 kg of waste.

So, $(x_2,y_2)=(135,2460)$

We are supposed to find a linear model for the cost, C, of waste collection as a function of the number of kilograms, w.

So, we will use two point slope form :

Formula : $y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

Substitute the values

$y-1830=\frac{2460-1830}{135-100}(x-100)$

$y-1830=18(x-100)$

$y-1830=18x-1800$

$y=18x-1800+1830$

$y=18x+30$

y denotes the cost

x denotes the weight

So, Replace y with C and x with w

$C=18w+30$

So, a linear model for the cost, C, of waste collection as a function of the number of kilograms, w is $C=18w+30$

Help pls, Yes or no

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The HL theorem basically says that two triangles are congruent if their corresponding hypotenuses and one leg are equal.

Here, the hypotenuse of both triangles are each marked with two dashes meaning they're equal. Similarly, QE and ET are both equal.

Therefore we can see that they can be proved congruent by the HL Theorem.
