Solve the following question

Mathematics
1 answer:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

16 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x+y) =20 and (x-y)=12 then:

Isolate for x in each equation

   x=20-y and x=12+y

Set the equations to equal each other since the value of x should be the same for both

   20-y = 12+y

Rearrange so that y is on one side and the numbers are on the other

   8 = 2y

   y= 8/2

   y= 4

Now  substitute the y- value back into either of the original equations

   x+y= 20

   x+4 = 20

Rearrange and isolate  x

   x = 20-4

   x = 16

So the two values are 16 and 4

F(x)=3x-3<br><br>g(x) 3x^3+5<br>Find F(-3) and g(-2)
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

f(-3) = -12

g(-2) = -19

General Formulas and Concepts:

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right<u> </u>

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Functions
  • Function Notation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

f(x) = 3x - 3

g(x) = 3x³ + 5

f(-3) is <em>x</em> = -3 for function f(x)

g(-2) is <em>x</em> = -2 for function g(x)

<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>

f(-3)

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em> [Function f(x)]:                                                                           f(-3) = 3(-3) - 3
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                             f(-3) = -9 - 3
  3. Subtract:                                                                                                            f(-3) = -12

g(-2)

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em> [Function g(x)]:                                                                         g(-2) = 3(-2)³ + 5
  2. Exponents:                                                                                                        g(-2) = 3(-8) + 5
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                            g(-2) = -24 + 5
  4. Add:                                                                                                                   g(-2) = -19

The temperature outside was 3°F at midnight. During the next hour the temperature fell 7°. What was the temperature at 1 A . M
Dahasolnce [82]

If the temperature was 3 degrees Fahrenheit at Midnight, and it dropped 7 degrees during the next hour, then the temperature at 1 A.M. would be -4 degrees Fahrenheit. This is true because 3 - 7 = -4.

So, the answer to this question is that the temperature was -4 degrees Fahrenheit at 1 A.M.
