X represents the length of a deck. There are three parts to this equations. The 1. width, 2. the length, and 3. the 5 feet shorter. Using the key words, y = the width of a deck (uses the term is which means =) So that takes the width part out of the equation. Then, 5 feet shorter means -5 than a number. That takes away the 5 feet shorter part of the equation. That leaves x to equal the length of the deck.

I need this ASAP MY TEACHER KEEPS CONTACTING ME PLZ HELP Combine like terms: 9x+8y-4x-2y9x+8y−4x−2y
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the expression is 2y+9x the answer is: 10x+12y

If the expression is 2y-9x the answer is -8x+12y

Step-by-step explanation:

You would combine all your x values:-4,9,9,-4 and that equals 10 then you would add your variable, so your x value is 10x.

You would then combine all your y values: 8,-2,8,-2, and that equals 12, then you would add your variable, so your y value is 12y.

Please can you help it says £300
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
This can be done algebraically:

300*x=330 Where x is the multiplier
Therefore x=330/300=1.1

To find a percentage of a number you multiply by the percentage divided by 100.
So 330 is 110% of 300, which is an increase of 10%.

True or false: sec^-1(0.5) is undefined. explain your answer
ICE Princess25 [194]

Here we get the statement:

"sec^-1(0.5) is undefined"

And we want to see if this is true or false, so let's use the properties that we know to find that this is false.

Remember that the sec function is defined as:

sec(x) = \frac{1}{cos(x)}

Then we will have:

sec^{-1}(x) = (\frac{1}{cos(x)})^{-1} =  cos(x)

Then is really trivial to see that:

sec^{-1}(0.5) =  cos(0.5) = 0.878

Then we can conclude that the function is not undefined at 0.5, so the statement is false.

Below you can see the graph of the given function, and you will see that it is never undefined.
