What is -0.8x - 6 < -10

Mathematics

puteri [66]3 years ago

Solving an equation is simply like solving an equation. For this problem, you must add 6 on both sides to get -0.8x alone. -10 + 6 would equal -4. Therefore, the inequality would look like this: -0.8x < -4 
Now you have to divide -0.8 on both sides to have x alone. Since you are dividing a negative to the other side, the sign flips to >. When you divide -0.8 to -4, the answer would be 5. So therefore, the answer is: x > 5 
In order to check this, you must plug in 5 into the x. -0.8 times 5 would equal -4. -4 - 6 would equal -10. -10 is the same as the other side. (-10 < -10) That means the answer would be correct. Hope this helps; cheers, mimiisawesome5

PLEASE HELP 10pts

Answer:

Hence the function which has the smallest minimum is: h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given function f(x) as:

  • f(x) = −4 sin(x − 0.5) + 11

We know that the minimum value attained by the sine function is -1 and the maximum value attained by sine function is 1.

so the function f(x) receives the minimum value when sine function attains the maximum value since the term of sine function is subtracted.

Hence, the minimum value of f(x) is: 11-4=7 ( when sine function is equal to 1)

  • Also we are given a table of values for function h(x) as:

x    y

−2   14

−1   9

 0   6

  1   5

 2   6

 3   9

 4   14

Hence, the minimum value attained by h(x) is 5. ( when x=1)

  • Also we are given function g(x) ; a quadratic function passing through (2,7),(3,6) and (4,7)

so, the equation will be:

g(x)=ax^2+bx+cHence on putting these coordinates we will get:

a=1,b=3 and c=7.

Hence the function g(x) is given as:

g(x)=x^2-6x+15

So,the minimum value attained by g(x) could be seen from the graph is at the point (3,6).

Hence, the minimum value attained by g(x) is 6.

Hence the function which has the smallest minimum is h(x)

What is the constant of the expression? 5x−2y+2.4
Leno4ka [110]
The correct answer is the 2.4

The constant in an equation is the number(s) that don't have variables.

This is because variables can change the number they are attached to, making them not constant.

Hope this helps!

Suppose that, on a 3,000-mile New York to Los Angeles flight, United Continental, American, and Southwest flew a total of 270 em
allsm [11]

Answer:

The number of empty seats each of these three airlines carried on its flight are as follows:

United Continental = 150 empty seats

American = 50 empty seats

Southwest = 70 empty seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf for the complete question.

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

Let U, A and W represents number of empty seats of United Continental, American, and Southwest respectively. Therefore, we have:

U + A + W = 270 ………………………. (1)

Since United Continental had three times as many empty seats as American, this implies that:

U = 3A ………………………………… (2)

Substituting U = 3A into equation (1), we have:

3A +A + W = 270

4A + W = 270

W = 270 - 4A ………………………….. (3)

For the cost, we have:

3,000[((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100)] = $114,990

((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100) = $114,990 / 3,000

((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100) = 38.33

0.447A + 0.146A + 0124W = 38.33

0.593A + 0.124W = 38.33 ………………… (4)

Substituting W = 270 - 4A from equation (3) into (4) and solve for A, we have:

0.593A + 0.124(270 - 4A) = 38.33

0.593A + 33.48 - 0.496A = 38.33

0.593A - 0.496A = 38.33 - 33.48

0.097A = 4.84

A = 4.84 / 0.097

A = 49.8969072164948

Rounding to a whole number, we have:

A = 50

Substituting A = 50 into each of equations (2) and (3), we have:

U = 3 * 50 = 150

W = 270 - (4 * 50) = 70

Therefore, the number of empty seats each of these three airlines carried on its flight are as follows:

United Continental = 150 empty seats

American = 50 empty seats

Southwest = 70 empty seats
