$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{direct proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies directly with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=kx\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} k=constant\ of\\ \qquad variation \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ k=4\qquad \boxed{y=4x}\qquad \qquad \textit{when y=6}~\hfill 6=4x\implies \cfrac{6}{4}=x\implies \cfrac{3}{2}=x$

for all values of x , a function f is defined by f(x)=x^2+7x+12 if f(a)=2, what could be the value of a?

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

a = -2 or a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want $f(a) = a^2 + 7a + 12 = 2$ . We can subtract 2 from both sides of this equation to get $a^2+7a+10=0$ . We can factor this to get that $(a+2)(a+5)=0$ . When the product of two numbers is equal to zero, one of the numbers must be equal to zero. This means that either a + 2 = 0, in which case a = -2, or a + 5 = 0, in which case a = -5.

Someone please help me with this! |-2-8x|-5<61

Mrac [35]

For
|a|x>-8.5
-8.5<x<8

the solution is all numbers between -8.5 and 8, not including -8.5 and 8
in interval notation: (-8.5,8)
or
S={x|-8.5<x<8}

Solve the equation 3x-4=8-x

solmaris [256]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-4=8-x(Group like terms)

3x+x=8+4(Add both sides)

4x=12(After adding you will proceed to divide both sides by 4)

x=3(x is 3 because 4 can divide 12 3 times that's why we have x as equal to 3)
