Mathematics
1 answer:
Alika [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A) addition

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5x + 12 = -6 (given) this is the given info

9x + 12 = -6 (simplify) to simplify, combine like terms, 4x + 5x = 9x

9x = -18 (subtraction) you are subtracting 12 from both sides to cancel out 12

x = -2 (addition) you are not adding, you are dividing by 9 to get x alone

you are not adding

John is driving around town. When he reaches the gas station, he notes that he has traveled 20 miles. He reaches home 2 hours la
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

d=5t+20

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that will model this situation will be of the form

d=mt+b

where t is the time in hours john has traveled since the gas station, and  d is the distance.

Now we know that John has already traveled 20 miles when he is at the gas station, this means at t=0, d=20; or

20=m(0)+b

\boxed{b=20}

Thus we have

d=mt+20.

Now we need to figure out m.

When John reaches home 2 hours later he notes that he has traveled 30 miles, which means he has traveled 30 - 20 = 10 miles; thus we have

m= \frac{\Delta d}{\Delta t} =\frac{10 miles}{2hours} =5

\boxed{m=5}

Now we have the full equation:

\boxed{d=5t+20}

Arrange these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change in the specific interval
oee [108]
The average r. of c. of a function f(x) on an interval [a,b] is:

  f(b) - f(a)
--------------
    b-a

You'll need to apply this to all four of the given functions.

First function:  f(x) = x^2 + 3x
a= -2; b= 3

Then the ave. r. of c. for this function on this interval is:

    18  - (-2)            20
------------------ = ---------- = 4.  y increases by 4 for every unit increase in x.
      3-(-2)                5

Do the same thing for the other 3 functions.

Then arrange your four results in descending order (greatest to least).
