Solve the following equation: x^3 -168 = [24(x-2)] / 2 PLEASE REPLY ASAP

7 0

Hi Larry

x^3 - 168 = [ 24(x-2)] / 2
x^3 - 168 = (24x - 48)/2
x^3 - 168 = 12x - 24
Subtract 12x - 24 to both sides
x^3 - 168 - (12x - 24) = 12xx - 24 - (12x - 24)
x^3 - 12x - 144 = 0
Now, factor the left sides
(x - 6)(x^2 + 6x + 24) = 0
Set factors equal to 0
x - 6 = 0 or x^2 + 6x + 24 = 0
x = 0 + 6 or x^2 + 6x + 24 - 0
x = 6
Answer : X = 6

Good luck !

Which of these statements is true for f(x)=(1/10)^x

lana66690 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Analyzing option A)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Putting $x = 1$ in the function

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^1$

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

So, it is TRUE that when $x = 1$ then the out put will be $f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

Therefore, the statement that '' The graph contains $\left(1,\:\frac{1}{10}\right)$ '' is TRUE.

Analyzing option B)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The range of the function is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.

$\mathrm{The\:range\:of\:an\:exponential\:function\:of\:the\:form}\:c\cdot \:n^{ax+b}+k\:\mathrm{is}\:\:f\left(x\right)>k$

$k=0$

$f\left(x\right)>0$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)>0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(0,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}$

Therefore, the statement that ''The range of $f(x)$ is $y > \frac{1}{10}$ " is FALSE

Analyzing option C)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The domain of the function is the set of input values which the function is real and defined.

As the function has no undefined points nor domain constraints.

So, the domain is $-\infty \:$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-\infty \:$

Therefore, the statement that ''The domain of $f(x)$ is $x>0$ '' is FALSE.

Analyzing option D)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

As the base of the exponential function is less then 1.

i.e. 0 < b < 1

Thus, the function is decreasing

Also check the graph of the function below, which shows that the function is decreasing.

Therefore, the statement '' It is always increasing '' is FALSE.

James works in a sporting goods store and earns $324 a week and 5% of his sales. One week James earned $432. What were his sales

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

His sales that week were $2,160.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract $324 from the amount he earned that week, to find the 5% he got from sales:

$432-$324=$108

Now, you know that he received $108 that represent 5% of his sales and you can use a rule of three to find the amount that represents 100% which would be his sales that week:

5% → 108

100% → x

x=(100*108)/5=2160

According to this, the answer is that his sales that week were $2,160.

Whatis the value of y?

Romashka [77]

Answer is A, y = 65

The top angle is 50 because 180 - 130 = 50
Since the top angle is 50, the two bottom angles have to add up to 130. Since the bottom angles are the same, you can do 130 / 2 to find the angles which equals 65.
