Answer: Choice D) 
================================================
Work Shown:
Explanation:
First I subtracted y/b from both sides. Then I multiplied both sides by 'a' to fully isolate x. You can optionally distribute the 'a' through to each term inside the parenthesis, but your teacher has chosen not to do this.
Answer: 6in.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 4 is a vertical line.
y = -2 is a horizontal line.
The lines are perpendicular.
Answer:
(-6+y)-3y=28
-2y-6=28
-2y=34
y=-17
Then,
x=-6-17
x=-23
Step-by-step explanation:
These are two separate problems: in the first we will have to substitute in a new value for x into the original equation and in the second we will manipulate the preexisting equation for f(x).
To begin, we will sub in f(x/3). To do this, we will substitute each variable x in the equation (in this case there is only one) with x/3, and then simplify the resulting equation.
f(x) = 6x - 18
f(x/3) = 6(x/3) - 18
To simplify, we should distribute the 6 on the right side of the equation.
f(x/3) = 6x/3 - 18
Now, we can divide the first term on the right side to finalize our simplification.
f(x/3) = 2x -18
Secondly, we are asked to find f(x)/3. To do this, we will take our original value for f(x), and then simplify divide that entire function by 3.
f(x) = 6x - 18
f(x)/3 = (6x-18)/3
This means that we must divide each term of the binomial by 3, so we are really computing
f(x)/3 = 6x/3 - 18/3
We can simplify by dividing both of the terms.
f(x)/3 = 2x - 6
Therefore, your answer is that f(x/3) = 2x - 18, but f(x)/3 = 2x - 6. It is important to recognize that these are two similar, yet different, answers.
Hope this helps!
