Solve the equation for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

B)  

−29

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5(2x − 12) = −28  

Multiply each side by 5/2 to clear the fraction

5/2*2/5(2x − 12) = −28*5/2

2x-12 = -70

Add 12 to each side

 2x-12+12 = -70+12

2x = -58

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -58/2

x = -29

Answer:

2: For every gallon of gas purchased, $3.75 was paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both options 1 and 3 would require having a dot plotted at those points to be sure, and they're close but they're still approximations. And option 4 is irrelevant. However the point at (4,15) can be used to check option two: 15/4 = 3.75 , ie the price per gallon of gas.

Choose the correct solution and graph for the inequality "-x/3<=6"
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this inequality, we have to find x (or make x the subject of the inequality:

since     ⁻ˣ/₃  ≤ 6       [multiply both sides by 3]

               - x ≤ 18      [multiply both sides by -1; this flips the inequality sign]

<h3>               x ≥ - 18    [this is the solution]</h3><h3 />

To graph the inequality, draw the line x = - 18 with a solid line, and then shade the region that is x > -18.

We use a solid line because the point x = -18 is included. However, hypothetically,  if the inequality was x > -18 only, a broken line would be used to show that the line x = -18 is not included.

The function f(x) = 2x 26 represents the distance a flock of birds travels in in miles. The function g(x) = x − 1 represents the
nydimaria [60]

Speed is the ratio of distance and time. When we divide f(x) by g(x) we will get the speed of the flock that is 9 miles/hour.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed can be defined as the rate of change in the position of an object. It is given as,

Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

Given to us

Distance traveled, f(x) = 2x+26

Time, g(x) = x − 1

As we know that the ratio of distance and time is equal to the speed of the object. Since the distance traveled by the flock of birds is given also, the time needed for them to travel the distance is also given.

We need to find f divided by g of 5, which is the speed of the flock,

Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time} = \dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}

Speed = \dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}  = \dfrac{2x +26}{x-1}

Speed = \dfrac{f(5)}{g(5)}  = \dfrac{2(5) +26}{(5)-1}\\\\Speed = 9 \rm\ miles/ hour

Hence, when we divide f(x) by g(x) we will get the speed of the flock that is 9 miles/hour.
