To solve this equation you need to solve for the variable x. There are more than one way you can to this but I find substitution method to be viable.

x=10, we know this because 10/2= 5 and 5-1=4. Also 10/5=2 and 2+2=4.

Anna007 [38]

B. You would need to multiply 7% and 24 and you should get 1.68 and that’s how much money you are paying in taxes then add the 1.68 to the $24 and you get $25.68

Given: the function defined by f(x)=3x^2-4 Which statement is true? 1. f(0) = 0 2. f(-2) = f(2) 3. f(5)+ f(2) = f(7) 4. f(5) x f

sergeinik [125]

$f(x)=3x^2-4 \\ \Downarrow \\ f(0)=3 \times 0^2-4=0-4=-4 \\ -4 \not= 0 \\ f(0) \not= 0 \\
\hbox{statement 1 is false} \\ \\
f(-2)=3 \times (-2)^2-4 =3 \times 4-4=12-4=8 \\
f(2)=3 \times 2^2-4=3 \times 4-4=12-4=8 \\ 8=8
\\ f(-2)=f(2) \\
\hbox{statement 2 is true}$

$f(5)=3 \times 5^2-4=3 \times 25-4=75-4=71 \\ f(2)=8 \\
f(7)=3 \times 7^2-4=3 \times 49-4=147-4=143 \\
71+8 \not= 143 \\
f(5)+f(2) \not= f(7) \\ \hbox{statement 3 is false} \\ \\
f(5)=71 \\ f(2)=8 \\ f(10)=3 \times 10^2-4=3 \times 100-4=300-4=296 \\
71 \times 8 \not= 296 \\
f(5) \times f(2) \not= f(10) \\
\hbox{statement 4 is false}$

Stamement 2. f(-2)=f(2) is true.

Which of the following terms correctly describe the object below?

erica [24]

Answer:

a polyhedron is a three dimensional shape with flat polygonal faces, straight edges and sharp corners or vertices.

a structure whose outer surfaces are triangular and converge to a single step at the top, making the shape roughly a pyramid in the geometric sense

polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted.

solid geometry is the traditional name for the geometry of three-dimensional Euclidean space. Stereometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solid figures including pyramids, prisms and other polyhedrons; cylinders; cones; truncated cones; and balls bounded by spheres

a solid geometric figure whose two end faces are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms.
