Answer:

$8.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up the equation first.

What do we know:

1. We have 6 friends spliting the costs of the gifts

2. After purchasing the gifts they have $42 in change

3. They originally had $90 to spend.

Equation:

6f + $42 = $90

Next: Subtract the $42 from each side and we are left with:

6f = $48

Divide both sides by 6 and we are left with

f = $8

Since f represented the cost each friend spent our answer is $8.00

Solve by substitution <br> X^2= 2y + 10<br> 3x-y = 9

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

$x=-4\\ x=-2\\ y=-21\\ y=-15$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{2} =2y+10$

$y=-9+3x$

$x^{2} =2(-9+3x)+10$

$x^{2} =-18+6x+10$

$x^{2} =6x-8$

$x^{2} -6x+8$

$x=-4, -2$

$y=-9+3(-4)$

$y=-9-12$

$y=-21$

$y=-9+3(-2)$

$y=-9-6$

$y=-15$

Elza [17]

Answer:

b and d

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the x - axis

a point (x, y ) → (x, - y ) , then

H (9, 1 ) → H' (9, - 1 )

the x- coordinate is 9 → b

the y- coordinate is - 1 → d

Differentiate y= ln (6 – 3x)^4

dsp73

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{ {(6 - 3x)}^{4} } \times {4(6 - 3x)}^{3} ( - 3) \\ = \frac{ - 12 {(6 - 3x)}^{3} }{ {(6 - 3x)}^{4} } \\ = - \frac{12}{6 - 3x}$

I hope I'm correct. I've never learnt differentiation for log and exponents before
