Answer:

<h3>C. -9x-3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distribuitve property.

<u><em>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY</em></u>

A(B+C)=AB+AC

A(B-C)=AB-AC

-3x-6x-8+5 ← (Group like terms & combine like terms.)

-3x-6x=-9x ← (Add and subtract elements to the numbers from left to right.)

-9x-8+5

-9x-8+5 ← (Solve & simplify)

-8+5 ← (Add & subtract.)

-8+5=-3

= -9x-3

\Large\boxed{\mathsf{\Rightarrow -9x-3}}}

Therefore, the correct answer is (C.) -9x-3.

Is 8x-2y=2 a direct or inverse variation
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Neither, why... for it to be direct or inverse variation, the model has to fit either y=k/x or y=kx, it may not have a y-intercept at all if it is inverse variation and it must have a y-intercept of 0 for it to be direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement y=2 is quite specific. Because k is positive, y increases as x increases. So as x increases by 1, y increases by 1.5. Inverse Variation: Because k is positive, y decreases as x increases.  yx is a constant number -8. The constant of variation, k , is 23 . Inverse Variation

An inverse variation can be represented by the equation xy=k or y=kx .

That is, y varies inversely as x if there is some nonzero constant k such that, xy=k or y=kx where x≠0,y≠0 .

Suppose y varies inversely as x such that xy=3 or y=3x . That graph of this equation shown.

Javier asks his mother how old a tree in their yard is. His mother says, "The sum of 10 and two-thirds of that tree's age, in ye
Sloan [31]

Answer:

His error is adding 10 and 2/3 before multiplying by a(age of the tree)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of 10 and two-thirds of that tree's age, in years, is equal to 50.

Correct equation

Sum = addition (+)

two-thirds = 2/3

The tree's age = a

10 + 2/3a = 50

2/3a = 50 - 10

2/3a = 40

a = 40 ÷ 2/3

= 40 × 3/2

= 60

a = 60 years

Javier writes the equation

(10 + two-thirds) a = 50

(10 + 2/3)a = 50

(30+2/3)a = 50

32/3a = 50

a = 50 ÷ 32/3

= 50 × 3/32

= 150/32

a = 150/32

His error is adding 10 and 2/3 before multiplying by a(age of the tree)

Determine whether the integral is convergent or divergent. [infinity] 7 e−1/x x2 dx convergent divergent Changed: Your submitted
inessss [21]

I suppose the integral could be

\displaystyle\int_7^\infty\frac{e^{-1/x}}{x^2}\,\mathrm dx

In that case, since -\frac1x\to0 as x\to\infty, we know e^{-1/x}\to1. We also have \left(e^{-1/x}\right)'=\frac{e^{-1/x}}{x^2}>0, so the integral is approach +1 from below. This tells us that, by comparison,

\displaystyle\frac{e^{-1/x}}{x^2}\le\frac1{x^2}\implies\int_7^\infty\frac{e^{-1/x}}{x^2}\,\mathrm dx\le\int_7^\infty\frac{\mathrm dx}{x^2}

and the latter integral is convergent, so this integral must converge.

To find its value, let u=-\frac1x, so that \mathrm du=\frac{\mathrm dx}{x^2}. Then the integral is equal to

\displaystyle\int_{-1/7}^0e^u\,\mathrm du=e^0-e^{-1/7}=1-\frac1{\sqrt[7]{e}}
