Answer:

x ≥ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 7| = x - 7

A. For each absolute, find the intervals

x - 7 ≥ 0     x - 7 < 0

     x ≥ 7           x < 7

If x ≥ 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 > 0.

If x < 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 < 0. No solution.

B. Solve for x < 7

Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as

+(x - 7) = x - 7

      x - 7 = x - 7

-x + 14 = x

        14 = 2x

          x = 7

7 ≮7. No solution

C. Solve for x ≥ 7

Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as

+(x - 7) = x - 7

      x - 7 = x - 7

True for all x.

D. Merge overlapping intervals

No solution or x ≥ 7

⇒ x ≥ 7

The diagram below shows that the graphs of y = |x - 7| (blue) and of y = x - 7 (dashed red) coincide only when x ≥ 7.

A biscuit recipe calls for 2 pounds of all purpose flour and .75 pound of butter, what would be the baker’s percentage for butte
Goryan [66]

Answer: 37.5%


Explanation:


Percentage is defined as parts of an amount  in 100 parts of a basis. This must be stated mathamatically for better understanding and for calculations. It is the ratio:

             % = (parts / base) × 100.


In this case you need to express the amount of butter as a part in 100 parts of all purpose flour, which, using the above definition, is:


        % butter = (0.75 pounds of butter / 2 pound of flour) × 100

         % butter = 0.75 × 100 / 2 = 75 / 2 = 37.5


The answer is expressed as 37.5%.

Identify as a direct variation, inverse variation or neither. The number of tons of coal burned by an old coal burning locomotiv
pochemuha
Answer: it is a direct variation.

Justification:

In a direct variation the variables are related by a proportionality constant in this way:

y = k x

Tthan means that the value of y is always the product of a constant times the value of x.

The situation discribed for the coal may be written as:
number of tons of coal burned: c

number of hours: h

⇒ c = k × h

Which is that you can calcualte the number of tons of coal burned at any time, once you know the proportionality constant k.

Divide ₹960 between Manu and Swapna in the ratio 5: 7
il63 [147K]

Ratio gives the fractional division of a whole into a given portion. Manu's will get 400 while Swapna will get 560.

To divide 960 in the ratio 5 : 7

  • Sum the ratio = (5 + 7) = 12
  • Manu's share = 5 × (960/12) = 400

  • Swapna's share = 7 × (960/12) = 560

Therefore, Manu and Swapna's share is 400 and 560 respectively.
