Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes f(x) can be a little confusing. You never quite know where which number goes where.

Start with the first part

f(6) means that wherever you see an x on the <u>right</u> you put a 6.

So do this.

f(6) = (3/2)(6) +b =

equals what

(3/2) * 6 + b = 7    That's because f(6) = 7 Now just solve it

(18)/2 + b = 7

9 + b = 7

9 - 9 + b = 7 - 9

b = - 2

================

The entire equation is

y = (3/2)x - 2

===============

What happens when you are given

f(-2)

The - 2 means that wherever you see an x, let it be - 2

f(-2) = (3/2)(-2) - 2

f(-2) = -3 - 2

f(-2) = - 5

===============

You could think of f(x) being y. You will not go wrong doing that. y = f(x)

The cafeteria uses many cases of tuna that each have 24 cans. Each week, they take at least 12 of the cans to feed the cats in t
Leni [432]

In this question, we're trying to find the cost of feeding the cats for a year.

We know that we use 12 cans to feed the cats

We also know that each can costs $0.60

To find how much the cafeteria spent on the cats, we need to see how much 12 cans cost, and multiply that by 52 to get our yearly cost

Solve:

12 · 0.60 = 7.2

12 cans = $7.20

Now multiply 7.20 by 52 to get our minimum yearly cost for the cats.

52 · 7.20 = 374.4

This means that it costs $374.4 to feed the cats for a year.

Answer

$374.40

The three inside angles (a,b and c) of a right-angled triangle are in the ratio 7:18:11
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The three angles of the right-angled triangle are

a = 35°

b = 90°

c = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the ratio of angles of a right-angled triangle

a:b:c = 7:18:11

Recall that the sum of interior angles in a right-angled triangle is always 180°

7x + 18x + 11x = 180

36x = 180

x = 180/36

x = 5

a:b:c = 7x:18x:11x

a:b:c = 7(5):18(5):11(5)

a:b:c = 35:90:55

a = 35°

b = 90°

c = 55°

Alternatively:

We are given that the smallest angle is 35°

a = 7x = 35

x = 35/7

x = 5

b = 18x

b = 18(5)

b = 90°

c = 11x

c = 11(5)

c = 55°
