Answer:
The third graph down
Step-by-step explanation:
-2.1 w > 12.81
Divide each side by -2.1, remembering to flip the inequality
-2.1w / -2.1 < 12.81/ -2.1
w < -6.1
There is an open circle at -6.1 and the line goes to the left
What a delightful little problem ! (Partly because I could see
right away how to do it, and had the answer in a few minutes,
after a lot of impressive-looking algebra on my scratch-paper.)
Three consecutive integers are . . . x, x+1, and x+2
The smallest two are . . . x and x+1
Their product is . . . . . x(x+1)
5 times the largest one is . . . 5(x+2)
5 less than that is . . . . . . 5(x+2)-5
Now, the conditions of the problem say that <u>x (x + 1) = 5 (x+2) - 5</u>
THAT's the equation we have to solve, to find 'x' .
Eliminate parentheses: x² + x = 5x + 10 - 5
Combine like terms: x² + x = 5x + 5
Subtract 5x from each side: x² - 4x = 5
Subtract 5 from each side: <u>x² - 4x - 5 = 0</u>
You could solve that by factoring it, or use the quadratic equation.
Factored, it says that (x + 1) (x - 5) = 0
From which <em>x = -1</em>
and <em>x = +5</em>
We only want the positive results, so our three consecutive integers are
5, 6, and 7 .
To answer the question, the smallest one is <em><u>5 </u></em>.
<u>Check</u>:
5 x 6 ? = ? (7 x 5) - 5
30 ? = ? (35) - 5
30 = 30
yay !
Answer:
C. q Superscript 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Any inversely proportional equation is of the form y=k/x.
Answer:
x=4
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
in order for this to be equal to 0, 1 or both of the factors has to be 0, because anything multiplied by 0 is 0.
123 * 29382 * 8139* 0 = 0
x-4 = 0
x = 4
x+5 = 0
x=-5
