Answer:

x = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

5x - 2(x + 1) = 1/4

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute -2: 5x - 2x - 2 = 1/4
Combine like terms: 3x - 2 = 1/4
Add 2 to both sides: 3x = 9/4
Divide both sides by 3: x = 3/4

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

5(3/4) - 2(3/4 + 1) = 1/4

15/4 - 2(7/4) = 1/4

15/4 - 14/4 = 1/4

1/4 = 1/4

Calculus The following curve passes through (3,1) Using linear lineralization

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Option 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The linearization of a curve implies the use of calculus to find the local value for the derivative and approximating the function by the use of the formula

$F(x) \approx F(x_0) + F'(x_0)(x-x_0)$

The function is given in such way that it's much easier to find the derivative by implicit differentiation than isolating any of the variables

$2x^2y+y=2x+13$

Differentiating with respect to x, we have

$4xy+2x^2y'+y'=2$

Computing y' in the given point (3,1) we have

4(3)(1)+2(9)y'+y'=2

$y'=\frac{2-12}{19}$

$y'=-\frac{10}{19}$

The function will be approximated with the expression

$F(x) = 1 -\frac{10}{19}(x-3)$

To find the approximate value for x=2.8

$F(2.8) = 1-\frac{10}{19}(-0.2)=1.1$

The correct value is the option 1.1

Function g can be thought of as a translated (shifted) version of f(x)=x^2.

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

g(x) = x² - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic function has been given as,

f(x) = x²

If the function f is translated by 'h' unit down over the y-axis, the new function obtained by the translation is,

g(x) = x² - h

From the graph attached, h = 3 units (shift of 3 units downwards)

Therefore, g(x) = x² - 3 will be the translated version of f(x).

Given: Ammonia NH3

LenKa [72]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{0.44 g}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the molar mass of ammonia

1 N = 1 × 14.01 g = 14.01 g

3 H = 3 × 1.008 g = 3.024

TOTAL = 17.03 g

2. Calculate the mass of hydrogen

So, there are 3.024 g of H in 17.03 g of NH₃.

The conversion factor is either

$\dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} \text{ or } \dfrac{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}}{\text{3.024 g H}}$

We want to find grams of H, so we choose the first one.

$\text{Mass of H} = \text{2.5 g NH}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} = \textbf{0.44 g H}\\\\\text{The mass of H is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.44 g}}$}$
