What is the answer to 8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)

Mathematics
1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago

Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you distribute the 8 over the (x-3) giving you 8x-24. Do the same for 2x and (4-17). That should give you 8x-34x.

Your equation should look like : 8x-24+7=8x-34x

Next try to balance out your equation. You want your x's all by themselves in order to solve.

The 8x's cancel eachother out so you have -24+7= -34x.

Add the like terms of -24 and 7 to get -17.

Equation: -17= -34x

Divide both sides by -34 to get x by itself.

-17/-34 = x

Reduce by dividing the numerator and denominator by 17 to get -1/-2

Since they are both negative the fraction turns positive.

So the answer should be x=1/2

Given the function f(x) = 4(x+3) − 5, solve for the inverse function when x = 3. (1 point)
atroni [7]

the function f(x) = 4(x+3) − 5

Lets find the inverse function f^-1(x)

step 1: Replace f(x) with y

y = 4(x+3) − 5

step 2: Replace x  with y and y with x

x = 4(y+3) - 5

step 3: Solve for y

x = 4(y+3) - 5

x = 4y +12 -5

x= 4y + 7 (subtract 7 on both sides)

x - 7 = 4y (divide by 4 on both sides)

\frac{x-7}{4}=y

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-7}{4}

Given : x = 3

We plug in 3 for x in the inverse function

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{3-7}{4} = -1

the inverse function when x = 3  is -1

How does the graph of y = 3x compare to the graph of y = 3–x?
bekas [8.4K]
<h2>Answer and explanation:</h2>

In this problem, we have two functions. Let's call the first functions as:

y=f(x)=3x

and the second function:

y=g(x)=3-x

So we can compare this functions as follows:

  • f(x) has a positive slope while g(x) has a negative slope.

  • f(x) passes through the origin of the system of coordinates while g(x) cuts the y-intercept at y=3

  • g(x) has an x-intercept at x=3 while f(x) cuts the origin.
