7x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 180
add the x’s, add the numbers
13x - 2 = 180
add 2 to 180
13x = 182
divide 182 by 13
x = 14
Answer:
x = 3/2 or x = -5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
8 x^2 - 2 x - 15 = 0
Using the quadratic formula, solve for x.
x = (2 ± sqrt((-2)^2 - 4×8 (-15)))/(2×8) = (2 ± sqrt(4 + 480))/16 = (2 ± sqrt(484))/16:
x = (2 + sqrt(484))/16 or x = (2 - sqrt(484))/16
Simplify radicals.
sqrt(484) = sqrt(4×121) = sqrt(2^2×11^2) = 2×11 = 22:
x = (2 + 22)/16 or x = (2 - 22)/16
Evaluate (2 + 22)/16.
(2 + 22)/16 = 24/16 = 3/2:
x = 3/2 or x = (2 - 22)/16
Evaluate (2 - 22)/16.
(2 - 22)/16 = -20/16 = -5/4:
Answer: x = 3/2 or x = -5/4
X-15+9-4=x-10 there are ten fewer people after the second stop than the original amount
Question:
Solution:
Let the function
![y=f(x)\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x}-9](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3Df%28x%29%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bx%7D-9)
Now remember the following rule:
To graph y = f(cx)
if 0 < c < 1 , stretch the graph of y = f(x) horizontally by a factor of 1/c.
Thus, applying this to the given function, with c = 3, we can conclude that the correct answer is:
![y=f(x)\text{ = }\sqrt[]{\frac{1}{3}x}-9](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3Df%28x%29%5Ctext%7B%20%3D%20%7D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7Dx%7D-9)
