Hello!

To solve, we want to isolate the x on one side of the equation. We can use inverse operations to put numbers on the other side to find x.

First we undistribute our parentheses.

12x-66+15=21

We subtract 15 from both sides (it cancels out the 15 on the left side, making it 0).

12x-66=6

Now we add 66 to both sides, as -66+66=0

12x=72

Finally, we divide both sides by 12.

x=6

I hope this helps!

To solve any algebraic equation, we need to get x by itself. The first step to doing that is doing the multiplication (since we can't simplify the parenthesis any further, and because there are no exponents).

Simplifying the parenthesis gives us:

12x - 66 + 15 = 21

Now we want to get all terms with x on one side and all the numbers on the other.

12x = 21 + 66 - 15

12x = 72

Now we want to get x by itself (meaning that we want to get a <em>single</em> x). We can do that by dividing both sides by the number in front of x.

12/12x = 72/12

x = 6

Compute the value of the discriminant and give the number of real solutions of the quadratic equation.

Sergio039 [100]

$-2x^2+6x-3=0 \\ \\
a=-2 \\ b=6 \\ c=-3 \\ \Delta=b^2-4ac=6^2-4 \times (-2) \times (-3)=36-24=12$

The value of the discriminant is 12.
Since the discriminant is greater than zero, the equation has two real solutions.

Type the correct answer in each box. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s).

Tom [10]

Given:

The values are $a=0.\overline{6},b=0.75$ .

To find:

The values of $ab$ and $\dfrac{a}{b}$ .

Solution:

We have,

$a=0.\overline{6}$

$a=0.666...$ ...(i)

Multiply both sides by 10.

$10a=6.666...$ ...(ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get

$10a-a=6.666...-0.666...$

$9a=6$

$a=\dfrac{6}{9}$

$a=\dfrac{2}{3}$

And,

$b=0.75$

$b=\dfrac{75}{100}$

$b=\dfrac{3}{4}$

Now, the product of a and b is:

$ab=\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{3}{4}$

$ab=\dfrac{1}{2}$

The quotient of a and b is:

$\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}}{\dfrac{3}{4}}$

$\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{4}{3}$

$\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{8}{9}$

Therefore, the required values are $ab=\dfrac{1}{2}$ and $\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{8}{9}$ .

with reference to a universal set, the inclusion of a subset in another is relation which is a) symmetric only b) transitive onl

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think it is D since a universal set would only be {1,2,3,4,5,6,...} and the subset would not satisfy any of the conditions of symmetric, transitive, and reflexive.
