Answer: the smaller number is - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller number

Let y represent the larger number.

One number added to three times another number is 45. This is expressed as

x + y = 45

Six times the first number added to two times the other number is 62. This means that

6x + 2y = 62 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 45 - y into equation 1, it becomes

6(45 - y) + 2y = 62

270 - 6y + 2y = 62

- 6y + 2y = 62 - 270

- 4y = - 208

y = - 208/-4

y = 52

x = 45 - y = 45 - 52

x = - 7

Please help i need help geometry is very hard for me i am dumb
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

G.  ABD = 74

H.  DBC = 206

I.  XYW = 33.75

J.  WYZ = 46.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For G and H: You have a straight line (ABC) with another line coming off of it, creating two angles (ABD and DBC).  A straight line has an angle of 180 degrees.  This means that the two angles from the straight line when combined will give you 180 degrees.  Solve for x.

ABD + DBC = ABC

(1/2x + 20) + (2x - 10) = 180

1/2x + 20 + 2x - 10 = 180

5/2x + 10 = 180

5/2x = 170

x = 108

Now that you have x, you can solve for each angle.

ABD = 1/2x + 20

ABD = 1/2(108) + 20

ABD = 54 + 20

ABD = 74

DBC = 2x - 10

DBC = 2(108) - 10

DBC = 216 - 10

DBC = 206

For I and J:  For these problems, you use the same concept as before.  You have a right angle (XYZ) that has within it two other angles (XYW and WYZ).  A right angle has 90 degrees. Combine the two unknown angles and set it equal to the right angle.  Solve for x.

XYW + WYZ = XYZ

(1 1/4x - 10) + (3/4x + 20) = 90

1 1/4x - 10 + 3/4x + 20 = 90

2x + 20 = 90

2x = 70

x = 35

Plug x into the angle values and solve.

XYW = 1 1/4x - 10

XYW = 1 1/4(35) - 10

XYW = 43.75 - 10

XYW = 33.75

WYZ = 3/4x + 20

WYZ = 3/4(35) + 20

WYZ = 26.25 + 20

WYZ = 46.25

46.The function f graphed above is the function f(x) = log2(x) + 2 for x > 0. Find a formula for the inverse of this function
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The inverse for log₂(x) + 2  is - log₂x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

f(x) = log₂(x) + 2

Now to find the inverse of any function we put we replace x by 1/x.

f(x) = log₂(x) + 2

f(1/x) =g(x)= log₂(1/x) + 2

As we know that

log₂(a/b) = log₂a - log₂b

g(x) = log₂1 - log₂x + 2

We know that  log₂1 = 0

g(x) = 0 - log₂x + 2

g(x) =  - log₂x + 2

So the inverse for log₂(x) + 2  is - log₂x + 2.

Consider the function f(x)=x^2+2x-8
sattari [20]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

function   f(x) = x² + 2x - 8

-See the graph below

1) x-intercepts

We observe in the graph that there are no x-intercepts.

2) y-intercepts

We observe in the graph that the y-intercept is (0, 8). Point A

3) axis of symmetry

The axis of symmetry is the line that divides the parabola into two equal parts. This line is x = -1 (blue line)

4) The vertex is the lowest point of the parabola, this point is (-1, 7)

Point B in the graph.
