The correct answer is C. x = 9.

To find this first distribute the numbers on the outside of the parenthesis.

-4(6x + 3) = -12(x + 10)

-24x - 12 = -12x - 120

Now move all the constant values to the right and all of the x values to the left.

-24x - 12 = -12x - 120

-24x = -12x - 108

-12x = -108

Now divide by -12 to solve

x = 9

Find the length of each arc. Use the exact answer

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Option D = 16π/3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length formula is written Mathematically as:

Arc length = 2πr × θ /360

r = 4 ft

θ = Central angle in degrees = 240°

2 × π × 4 × 240/360

8π × 240/360

8π × 20/30

16π/3 ft

So, the arc length is 16π/3 ft

if on a scale drawing 35 feet are represented by 25 inches, then a scale of 1/8 inch represents how many feet?

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

7/40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using proportions:

$\frac{25in}{35ft} =\frac{1/8 in}{?ft}$

Find the scale factor by dividing the numerators 25 by 1/8.

25 ÷ 1/8 = 200 This is the common ratio

To get from the top left number to the top right number, you divide 25 by 200.

To get from the bottom left number to the bottom right number, you divide 35 by 200.

35 ÷ 200 = 0.175

1/8 of an inch represents 0.175 feet.

To find 0.175 in fraction form, reduce 35/200 to its lowest terms.

35/200 = 7/40

1/8 of an inch represents 7/40 feet.

Transformation of quadratic functions

Kitty [74]

Answer:

g(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, where a ≠ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function of the quadratic family is f(x) = x2. A transformation of the graph of the parent function is represented by the function g(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, where a ≠ 0.
