Hi there! Yes, x = 2 is a solution to this equation.

Let's solve this equation step by step!
$- 4x + 2 = - 6$

Subtract 2 from both sides.
$- 4x + 2 - 2 = - 6 - 2 \\ - 4x = - 8$

Now divide both sides of the equation by -4 (and remember that when dividing two negatives we end up with a positive).
$x = \frac{ - 8}{ - 4} = 2$

And therefore x = 2 is a solution to this equation.
~ Hope this helps you!

Julian has to read 4 articles for school. He has 8 nights to read them. He decides to read the same number of articles each nigh

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a. He will have to read half an article per night

b. Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Explanation:

Part a:

We are given that:

number of articles to read = 4 articles

number of nights = 8 nights

To get the number of articles that he should read per night, we will simply divide the the number of articles by the number of nights

Therefore:

number of articles to read per night = $\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$ articles per night

Part b:

Now, we know that he will read half an article each night from a total of 4 articles

To get the fraction of the reading assignment read each night, we will divide the number of articles read each night by the total number of assignments

Therefore:

Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Hope this helps :)

Determine if the function is one-to-one.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I saw on google for what "one to one" means, It's basically meaning that the bottom of that quadratic function is at point (0 , 0) and hits both (-1 , 1) and (1 , 1) on the graph.
