Answer: Confusing.
If it's f(x) is 2 times 2 minus 8, it's a horizontal line at y-4.
If it's f(x) is 2x 2-8
It's handy to use a graphing calculator.
Step-by-step explanation:
Be sure to clarify what the equation means
Thanks to Desmos for the graphs.
As you can see, the numbers could represent a lot of different things-- especially when 'x' can be a variable -- or confused with the multiplication sign.
Half = 0.5
x-the number
<span>Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8:
10 · (0.5x + 6) = 8 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
5x + 60 = 8 |subtract 60 from both sides
5x = -52 |divide both sides by 5
<span>x = -10.4</span></span>
Answer:
x>5

Answer:
77 children and 186 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
After a LONG time testing out numbers, I finally found two numbers. What I did was used the equation 3x + 5.5y = 1254. I kept filling in two numbers that can add to 263. For example, I filled in the variables with 77 and 186. Like this: 3(77) + 5.5(186) = 1254. 77 times 3 equals 231 and 186 times 5.5 equals 1023. Add those two numbers together to get 1254. So, there were 77 children and 186 adults.
You know the triangle has a base of 6 meters, and that the formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2bh or one-half of the base times the height. So, you would plug in 9 meters squared=one half of six times h, or 9m^2=1/2(6)*(h). In simplifying this, you would get 3h=9m^2. Divide both sides by three and get h=3.
