X^-n duals: 1/x^n. You cannot have negative exponents so do its inverse to get rid of the negative exponent

Given f(x) = 2x - 1, find the value of f(0).

Serggg [28]

F(x) = 2x - 1

subtitute x = 0 to the equation:

f(0) = 2· 0 -1 = 0 - 1 = -1

f(0) = -1

Steve hade 17 pencils in his backpack. this represents 5 more than 6/7 the number of pencils that Clyde has in his backpack

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Clyde has 14 pencils in his backpack

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of pencils that Clyde has in his backpack.

We can translate this statement “Steve hade 17 pencils in his backpack. this represents 5 more than 6/7 the number of pencils that Clyde has in his backpack” mathematically like this :

$17=5+\frac{6}{7} x \\\\ \Longleftrightarrow 17-5=\frac{6}{7} x \\\\ \Longleftrightarrow 12=\frac{6}{7} x \\ \\\Longleftrightarrow x=\frac{12\times 7}{6} =14$

Don’t understand #11 A,B, and C help please

Fiesta28 [93]

I set it in a big problem. Since you know that all the angles of a triable add up to 180,
m<a + m<b + m<c = 180, plug in equations/values
(36) + (3x+12) + (3x+18) = 180, subtract 36
3x+12 + 3x+18 = 144, combine like terms,
6x+30 = 144, subtract 30,
6x=114, divide by 6,
x=19. Plug in X to the equations for m<b and m<c
