Answer: X = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

You distribute -6 to "3x" and "12" (-6x + -24 = 72)

add +24 to -24 and do the same to 72 (-6x = 96)

divide -6 by -6 to X by itself, and then divide 96 by -6 (x = -16)

hope this helps.

Value of m varies directly as value of n and n=5 when m=12. What is n when m=18?

Shkiper50 [21]

Simplify the problem down, so:

m = 12 & n = 5
m = 6 & n = 2.5 (divided each number by 20)

Now m is a factor of 18. Multiply each number by 3.
Answer: m = 18 & n = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1.99/3=.66333333 or .66

3.50/5=.7 or .70

since 66 cents is cheaper than 70 cents its a better deal to get the three avacados rather than the 5

Shay created the table below to graph the equation r-3-sin theta (rounded to the hundredths place). Analyze the table. Did Shay

monitta

Answer:

B is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check Shay's table:

if $\theta=0,$ then $r=3-\sin 0=3-0=3$ (true);
if $\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{6},$ then $r=3-\sin \dfrac{\pi}{6}=3-\dfrac{1}{2}=2.5$ (true);
if $\theta = \dfrac{\pi}{4},$ then $r=3-\sin \dfrac{\pi}{4}=3-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\approx2.29$ (true);
if $\theta=\dfrac{\pi}{3},$ then $r=3-\sin \dfrac{\pi}{3}=3-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\approx 2.13$ (false);
if $\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{2},$ then $r=3-\sin \dfrac{\pi}{2}=3-1=2$ (true).
