First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.
simplify the equation
5x=24
x=24/5
So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2
open the parenthes. and then after that you'll get 27+12x-15. if you simplify that then you'll get 12x+12
Answer:
y=1
x=7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 5y = 12
3x + 4y = 9.25
4x + 5y = 12
12x + 16y =37
-12x -15 y =-36
12x + 16y =37
y=1
x=7/4
Answer:
cubic polynomial
Step-by-step explanation:
Given polynomial is ![\[h(x)=-6x^{3}+2x-5\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5Bh%28x%29%3D-6x%5E%7B3%7D%2B2x-5%5C%5D)
A polynomial of degree 1 is a linear polynomial.
A polynomial of degree 2 is a quadratic polynomial.
A polynomial of degree 3 is a cubic polynomial.
In this case the exponent with the maximum value in the polynomial is 3.
Hence the degree of the polynomial h(x) is 3.
Hence the given polynomial is a cubic polynomial.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first two steps are for the purpose of eliminating fractions. Doing so results in 4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 2), which is to be solved for x.
Perform the indicated multiplication, obtaining:
8x - 20 = 9x - 18.
Then combine like terms: -2 = x, or
x = -2.
To complete the formal check, substitute -2 for x in the first equation. This results in:
(1/3)(-4 - 5) = (3/4)(-2 -2), or
-3 = -3
... which is obviously true.
