What is the solution to the linear equation? 2/3x-1/2=1/3+5/6x

2 answers:

7 0

2/3x - 1/2 = 1/3 + 5/6x....multiply the entire equation by the common denominator of 6...this will get rid of the fractions.

6(2/3x - 1/2) = 6(1/3 + 5/6x) =
4x - 3 = 2 + 5x...subtract 5x from both sides
4x - 5x - 3 = 2...add 3 to both sides
4x - 5x = 2 + 3...combine terms
-x = 5...multiply by -1 to make x positive
x = -5

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle below

Hatshy [7]

One way to solve this is to use Pythagorean theorem: the square of one leg of triangle plus square of other leg of the triangle equals c the hypotenuse (longest side of triangle). You might see this as the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.
In this case, the legs are 3√2 and the hypotenuse is h.
Using the formula:
(3√2)² + (3√2)² = h²
18 + 18 = h²
h = 6

The other way to do this is with trigonometric angles.
Remember cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse.
cos(45°) = (3√2) / h
h = (3√2) / cos(45°)
h = 6

When you multiply a function by -1 what is the effect on its graph?

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Depends on what you mean by multiplying by - 1. I assume you are not going to multiply the y or f(x) term by - 1.

If that is so, take an example. Suppose you have a graph that is y=x^2

That's a parabola that opens upwards and it has a line going through its focus which is a point on the +y axis.

When you multiply the right hand side by - 1, the graph you get will be y = - x^2.

That opens downward and the focus is on the - y axis.

That means that the effect of the graph is that it flips over the x axis, which I think is the third answer.

Devisibility rules for 3, 6, and 9

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

★ Divisibility rule for 3 -

If the sum of all the digits divisible by 3 then the number is divisible by 3.

Here, we take an example for better understanding -

Example 1 - 3525

Add up the digits - 3 + 5 + 2 + 5

→ 15

As, 15 is divisible by 3. So, 3525 is a factor of 3.

★ Divisibility rule for 6 -

A number is to be divisible by 6 , if the number is also divisible by 2 and 3.

Example 2 - 132

Add up the digits = 1 + 3 + 2 = 6

As, 6 is divisible by 2 and it's also divisible by 3. Then, 132 is a factor of 6.

★ Divisibility rule for 9 -

If the sum of all the digits is divisible by 9 then the number is divisible by 9. Just like we'd in 3.

Example 3 - 1052

Add up the digits - 10 + 5 + 2 = 17

As, 17 is not divisible by 9. So, 1052 is also not divisible by 9.
