Answer:

t = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5t - 26 = 18t

Add 26 to both sides:

5t - 26 + 26 = 18t + 26

Simplify:

5t = 18t + 26

Subtract 18t from both sides:

5t - 18t = 18t + 26 - 18t

Simplify:

-13t = 26

Divide both sides by -13:

-13t/-13 = 26/-13

Therefore:

t = -2

I hope this helps!

You want to isolate t as much as possible

Subtract 18t from not sides and add 26 to both sides

-13t=26 | divide each side by -13
t=-2

Find(f+g)(x) for the following functions. f(x) = 12x2 + 7x + 2 g(x) = 9x + 7

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

(f + g)(x) = 12x² + 16x + 9 ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- We can add and subtract two function by adding and subtracting their

like terms

Ex: If f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = 5 - 7x, then

(f + g)(x) = 2x + 3 + 5 - 7x = 8 - 5x

(f - g)(x) = 2x + 3 - (5 - 7x) = 2x + 3 - 5 + 7x = 9x - 2

* Lets solve the problem

∵ f(x) = 12x² + 7x + 2

∵ g(x) = 9x + 7

- To find (f + g)(x) add their like terms

∴ (f + g)(x) = (12x² + 7x + 2) + (9x + 7)

∵ 7x and 9x are like terms

∵ 2 and 7 are like terms

∴ (f + g)(x) = 12x² + (7x + 9x) + (2 + 7)

∴ (f + g)(x) = 12x² + 16x + 9

* (f + g)(x) = 12x² + 16x + 9

Jessica calculated the missing side length of one of these triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem. Which triangle was it?

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find a missing length of a triangle using a Pythagorean theorem if and only the triangle is a right angled triangle.

The side of the missing length is:

a^+b^=c^

2^+4^=c^

4+16=c^

20=c^

$\sqrt{20} = c ^{2} \\ 4 \sqrt{5} = c$

cara works at a fine jewelry store and earns a commission on her total sales for the week. her weekly paycheck was in the amount

Gekata [30.6K]

Cara's rate of commission is 12%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Paycheck = $6500

Salary = $1000

Commission = Paycheck - Salary

Commission = 6500-1000 = $5500

Total sales for the week = $45000

Commission rate = $\frac{Commission}{Total\ Sales}*100$

$Commission\ rate=\frac{5500}{45000}*100\\\\Commission\ rate=\frac{550000}{45000}\\\\ Commission\ rate=12.22\%$

Rounding off to nearest whole number.

Commission rate = 12%

Cara's rate of commission is 12%.
