The initial fee for a gym membership is $10 and for each month of the membership it costs $5. Jem has been going to the gym for 8 months, what is the total cost?
For this item, we let x be the number of hours she works out and y be the total number of bananas that she will be eating after the workout. The expression that best described the given above is,
y = 5 + 2x
5 is given as the y-intercept because of the initial condition.
I noticed that this equation is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). M = the slope of the line, B = the y-intercept.
If the line is translated (fancy, fancy, talk for MOVED) up. The Y-intercept would change positive (because it is moved up) by four.
4 + 4 equals...well, 8.
Hope I could help you out! If my answer is incorrect, or I provided an answer you were not looking for, please let me know.
However, if my answer is explained well and correct, please consider marking my answer as Brainliest! :)
Have a good one.
God bless!
We performed the following operations:
![f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}=2f(x)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20g%28x%29%3D2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%3D2f%28x%29)
If you multiply the parent function by a constant, you get a vertical stretch if the constant is greater than 1, a vertical compression if the constant is between 0 and 1. In this case the constant is 2, so we have a vertical stretch.
![g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}=-g(x)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=g%28x%29%3D2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20h%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%3D-g%28x%29)
If you change the sign of a function, you reflect its graph across the x axis.
![h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto m(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}-1=h(x)-1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20m%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D-1%3Dh%28x%29-1)
If you add a constant to a function, you translate its graph vertically. If the constant is positive, you translate upwards, otherwise you translate downwards. In this case, the constant is -1, so you translate 1 unit down.
Answer:
The number x is -3
Therefore x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given problem is "Three added to eight times a number is the same as three times the value of two times the number -1"
Let x be the number
It can be written as

( applying the distributive property )


subtracting (6x-3) on both sides we get


( ading the like terms )


Therefore x=-3
The number x is -3
