whats the algebraic equation for: Jorge has some dimes and quarters. He has 10 more dimes than quarters and the collection of co

Answer:

4 quarters and 14 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be quarters and since Jorge has 10 more dimes than quarters you can say x + 10. 25 is the quarters and the 10 is the dimes.  

25x + 10(x+10) = 240

25x + 10x + 100 = 240

35x = 140

x = 4

Multiply 4 and 0.25 and you get 1.00. Subtract 1.00 from 2.40 to get 1.40. Divide that by 10 (amount of dime) to get 14.

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point.
Zigmanuir [339]
-3x-6y=17

-6y=3x+17

y=-x/2-17/6 so the slope of the line is -1/2

For another line to be perpendicular to this one the product of their slopes must equal -1

(-1/2)m=-1, m=2  so the perpendicular line will have a slope of 2...

y=2x+b, using point (6,3) we can solve for b...

3=2(6)+b

3=12+b

b=-9 so

y=2x-9

If we graph the given points then they appear to be in the shape of cubic function so we can use standard formula of cubic function which is


y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d


Plug the given points to get four equations


like first point (3,6) so plug x=3 and y=6 into above equation, we get:


6=a*3^3+b*3^2+c*3+d


or


6=27a+9b+3c+d


Same way by plugging other points form table, we get total four equations as follows:


6=27a+9b+3c+d, 11=125a+25b+5c+d, 11=64a+16b+4c+d, 21=343a+49b+7c+d


Now we just need to solve these equations for a, b, c and d.

Solving them to get values of a, b, c and d, we get:


a=\frac{25}{24}, b=-15, c=\frac{1715}{24}, d=-\frac{203}{2}


Now plug them into


y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d


So the required equation will be:


y=\frac{25}{24}x^3-15x^2+\frac{1715}{24}x-\frac{203}{2}


Hence required equation in function notation can be written as


f(x)=\frac{25}{24}x^3-15x^2+\frac{1715}{24}x-\frac{203}{2}


Now to prove that above function is correct, we just graph the given points from table and the obtained function.


After graphing the given points from table and the obtained function, We see that points lie on the graph of y=\frac{25}{24}x^3-15x^2+\frac{1715}{24}x-\frac{203}{2}


Which proves that our equation is correct.

What is the value of x<br>|5x + 6| + 6 = x​
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute(5x + 6) = x

There are 2 solutions to this

Solution 1

5x + 6 = x                    Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x - 5x + 6 = x - 5x

6 = - 4x                       Divide by - 4

6/ - 4  = -4x / -4

x = - 1.5

Solution 2

5x + 6 = - x

6 = -x - 5x

6 = - 6x

x = 6/-6

x = - 1

Here is a graph which shows the solutions.
