5n + 7 = 7(n+1) - 2n
First distribute 7 to all terms inside the parenthesis
7(n) = 7n
7(1) = 7
5n + 7 = 7n - 2n + 7
Simplify. Combine like terms
5n + 7 = 5n + 7
True.
If you want to continue:
Isolate the n, move all variables to one side, and constants to the other
5n (-5n) + 7 (-7) = 5n (-5n) + 7 (-7)
0 = 0
True
hope this helps
Answer:
B) (35, 260)
Step-by-step explanation:
A veterinarian will prescribe an antibiotic to a dog based on its weight. The effective dosage of the antibiotic is given by d ≥ 1∕5w2, where d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds. Which of the following ordered pairs gives an effective dosage of antibiotics for a 35-pound dog?
A) (35, 240)
B) (35, 260)
C) (260, 35)
D) (240, 35)
Ordered pairs is composed of pairs, usually an x coordinate and a y coordinate. It refers to a location of a point on the coordinate. It matches numbers to functions or relations.
Given the relation between d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds as d ≥ 1∕5w²
For a 35 pound dog (i.e w = 35 pound). The dosage is given as:
d ≥ 1∕5(35)² ≥ 245 milligrams.
For an ordered pair (x, y), x is the independent variable (input) and y is the dependent variable (output).
The dog weight is the independent variable and the dosage is the dependent variable.
From the ordered pairs, the best option is (35, 260) because 260 ≥ 240
Solution for x^2+5x=150 equation:
<span>Simplifying
x2 + 5x = 150
Reorder the terms:
5x + x2 = 150
Solving
5x + x2 = 150
Solving for variable 'x'.
Reorder the terms:
-150 + 5x + x2 = 150 + -150
Combine like terms: 150 + -150 = 0
-150 + 5x + x2 = 0
Factor a trinomial.
(-15 + -1x)(10 + -1x) = 0
Subproblem 1Set the factor '(-15 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
-15 + -1x = 0
Solving
-15 + -1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + -1x = 0 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + 15
-1x = 0 + 15
Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15
-1x = 15
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = -15
Simplifying
x = -15
Subproblem 2Set the factor '(10 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
10 + -1x = 0
Solving
10 + -1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + -1x = 0 + -10
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + -10
-1x = 0 + -10
Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10
-1x = -10
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10Solutionx = {-15, 10}</span>
When a linear equation is in the form y = mx + c, the c, or constant, is the intercept on the y axis, meaning it crosses the y axis at (0, 1).
The gradient (1/3 in this case) is how much the y increments (or decrements) per increase of 1 of the value of x.
This would mean that there would be one point at (0, 1), and another at (3, 2). Draw a line from these two points and beyond, and that is the graph sketched.
Equation: y=-5x+100, where x is the number of hours and y is the battery percentage
The slope is -5, meaning she loses 5% of battery per hour
