Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a question asks you if a x value is a possible solution the first thing you should do is try it out!

------

SO let's replace the x in 2X=9 with 1.5

1.5×2= 3

IS 3 equal to 9?

NO it's not so 1.5 is not a possible solution

Integrate Sec (4x - 1) Tan (4x - 1) Dx

Delicious77 [7]

$\bf \displaystyle\int~sec(4x-1)tan(4x-1)dx \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ sec(4x-1)tan(4x-1)\implies \cfrac{1}{cos(4x-1)}\cdot \cfrac{sin(4x-1)}{cos(4x-1)}\implies \cfrac{sin(4x-1)}{cos^2(4x-1)} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \displaystyle\int~\cfrac{sin(4x-1)}{cos^2(4x-1)}dx \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ u=cos(4x-1)\implies \cfrac{du}{dx}=-sin(4x-1)\cdot 4\implies \cfrac{du}{-4sin(4x-1)}=dx \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf \displaystyle\int~\cfrac{~~\begin{matrix} sin(4x-1) \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~ }{u^2}\cdot \cfrac{du}{-4~~\begin{matrix} sin(4x-1) \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}\implies -\cfrac{1}{4}\int\cfrac{1}{u^2}du\implies -\cfrac{1}{4}\int u^{-2}du \\\\\\ -\cfrac{1}{4}\cdot \cfrac{u^{-2+1}}{-1}\implies \cfrac{1}{4}\cdot u^{-1}\implies \cfrac{1}{4u}\implies \cfrac{1}{4cos(4x+1)}+C$

Determine if the statement is true or false. If a linear system has the same number of equations and variables, then it must hav

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equations with the same number of equations and variables as shown below,

$x_{1} + x_{2} = 0\\x_{1} + x_{2} = 1$

This equation has no solution because it is not possible to have two numbers that give a sum of 0 and 1 simultaneously.

$x_{1} + x_{2} = 1\\2x_{1} + 2x_{2} = 2$

This equation has infinitely many possible solutions.

Therefore it is FALSE to say a linear system with the same number of equations and variables, must have a unique solution.

#9 - The Question

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.

We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.

The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...

(126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6

Then Wendy must sell an additional ...

(1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags

to increase her earnings to $126.
