Answer: 12.

To solve this problem, let's first solve for x. Thi is easiest done by figuring what QR is in terms of x using two equations, both from different lines.

In the first line:
QR = 15 - 4x.

In the third line:
QR = 13x - 1 - x = 12x - 1.

Now, we have to set these equations equal to each other.
15 - 4x = 12x - 1
15 = 16x - 1
16x = 16
x = 1

Next, we take line three, 13x - 1, and substitute x as 1. The answer is 12.

Answer: a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation: (18^2=14^2+c^2)=324=196+c^2

324-196=128 and the square root of 128 is 8 radical 2 or in decimal form 11.31

Camacho is buying a monster truck. The price of the truck

Mice21 [21]

Total cost = a + (13a/100)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the monster truck be 'a'

He should pay 13% tax

Total cost = price of the truck + tax

Total cost = a + (13a/100)

The equation to represent the total cost is

Total cost= a + (13a/100)

Answer:

Bottom left graph

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use what is called the zero-interval test [test point] in order to figure out which portion of the graph these inequalities share:

−2x + y ≤ 4 >> Original Standard Equation

+ 2x + 2x

_________

y ≤ 2x + 4 >> Slope-Intercept Equation

−2[0] + 0 ≤ 4

0 ≤ 4 ☑ [We shade the part of the graph that CONTAINS THE ORIGIN, which is the right side.]

$\displaystyle y > x + 2 \\ \\ 0 ≯ 2$ [We shade the part of the graph that does not contain the origin, which is the left side.]

So, now that we got that all cleared up, we can tell that the graphs share a region in between each other and that they both have POSITIVE RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES], therefore the bottom left graph matches what we want.

** By the way, you meant $\displaystyle y > x + 2$ because this inequality in each graph is a dashed line. It is ALWAYS significant that you be very cautious about which inequalities to choose when graphing. Inequalities can really trip some people up, so once again, please be very careful.
