Answer:

The answer is B.) The diameter of the fir tree when planted and 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the initial diameter of the fir tree (10 inches). At the end of 50 years, the tree's diameter is 30 inches. Therefore, 30 − 10 = 20 inches of growth occurred over the 50 year period. The diameter of the fir tree when planted. The fir tree's diameter was 10 inches when it was planted.

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12

Ainat [17]

Hey Tierra7l,

Lets solve your equation together step by step.

$3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50$

$\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10$

$\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac$

$a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5$

$2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules}$

$\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a$

$2x-2\cdot \:5$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10$

$2x-10$

$3x+2x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x$

$5x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$5x-10+10=50+10$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5x=60$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=12$

Hope this helps,

Is y=x^2-6 a linear function and why

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, y=x²-6 is not a linear function.

This is because all linear functions have the highest exponent of 1. Anything equation that has a variable raised to a power other than 1 is not linear.

The equation provided as the highest exponent of 2. Thus, it's not linear.

From the provided graph, we can also see that this is quadratic instead of linear. The graph is a parabola instead of a line.

How do you solve this

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

domain: all terms are defined for <em>all real numbers</em>
solution: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as a single exponential. After taking the log, the solution becomes obvious.

$5^{x-2}-7^{x-3}=7^{x-5}+11\cdot 5^{x-4}\\\\5^{x-2}-11\cdot 5^{x-4}=7^{x-3}+7^{x-5}\\\\5^{x-2}(1-11\cdot 5^{-2})=7^{x-3}(1+7^{-2})\\\\5^{x-2}\dfrac{14}{25}=7^{x-3}\dfrac{50}{49}\\\\1=\dfrac{2\cdot 7^{x-3}5^4}{2\cdot 5^{x-2}7^3}=\left(\dfrac{7}{5}\right)^{x-6}\\\\0=(x-6)\log(1.4)\\\\x=6$
