Answer:

n= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 ( n+5 ) = 12

-3n - 15 = 12

-3n = 12+15

-3n = 27

n = -27/3

n = -9

Explain how you can use the graph of the quadratic function f(x) to solve the equation f(x)=0

Whitepunk [10]

F(x)=0
f(x)=y
so where y=0, the x value is the x in f(x)
basically, where the line crosses or touches the x axis, those ar the x values that make the function true

suppose y varies directly with x and y=5 when x=20. Write a direct variation equation then find the value of x when y=3/2

jek_recluse [69]

X=k*Y
K*Y=X
K=X/Y
K=20/5
K=4

For Y=3/2
X=k*3/2
X=4*3/2
X=6

Please help me with this I’ll make you as brainlist

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

x = $3\sqrt{13}$ = 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Both problems are done the same way. I will do the first one and you do the second one. OK?

Move the radius x to make a right triangle. The 6 unit segment bisects the chord. So, the legs of the right triangle are 6 and 9

The use the Pythagorean theorem to find x, which is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Now,

$6^{2} + 9^{2} = x^{2}$

$x^{2} = 36 + 81 = 117\\x = \sqrt{117} = 3\sqrt{13}$ = 10.8

None of the answer choices are to the nearest tenth. So, I am confused about that.

In the second problem, the answer should be 11.2

Kristin bought a pack of 12<br> pencils for $1.25. How<br> much was each pencil?????????????

gregori [183]

Answer:

$0.10/pencil

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the unit cost. To do this, divide $1.25 by 12 pencils, obtaining:

$1.25

---------------- = $0.1042/pencil, or (more logically) $0.10/pencil

12 pencils
