Answer:The equation wth x in the information can be written as
1/2 x = 38.5 , Upon solving, the number = 77
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number Sara was thinking about be x
halving the number to get an answer = 38.5 can be expressed as
1/2 X = 38.5
The equation with x in the information can be written as
1/2 x = 38.5
solving it becomes
1/2 x= 38.5
x = 38.5 x 2
x=77
The number Sara was thinking about = 77
Answer:frfr it made hard
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
h(x - 1) = -5x - 2
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Terms/Coefficients
Functions
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
h(x) = -5x - 7
<u>Step 2: Find</u>
- Substitute in <em>x </em>[Function h(x)]: h(x - 1) = -5(x - 1) - 7
- [Distributive Property] Distribute -5: h(x - 1) = -5x + 5 - 7
- Combine like terms: h(x - 1) = -5x - 2
Similarities: They both are polynomials of degree 2, both of their graphs is a parabola, both have either 2 or 0 real solutions, they are both continuous functions over R
(DOS= difference of two squares, PST=perfect square trinomial
Differences: PST has three terms, whereas the difference of squares has 2. PST's factors are both the same, whereas DOS's elements are conjugates of each other. DOS can always be factored into two distinct polynomials with rational coefficients, whereas PST has two same polynomial factors.
