When 12 is decreased by twice a number, the result is -14. Find the number.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Talja [164]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number is 2h (h is the variable) so the equation is 12-2h=-14 and - 13 times 2 is -26 so the equation is now 12-26=-14

Ryan $65 for n books. Write an expression that can be used to find the cost of one book.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

x=65/n where x is 1 book and n the number of books

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is the number of books, lets say 1 book is "x", then

nx=65

x=65/n

for example

n=1    then x=65

n=2 then x=65/2

n=3 then x=65/3

If sec= 5/3 and the terminal point determined by is in quadrant 4, then
OLga [1]
\bf sec(\theta)=\cfrac{1}{cos(\theta)}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;sec(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{3}\implies \cfrac{1}{cos(\theta)}=\cfrac{5}{3}\implies \cfrac{3}{5}=cos(\theta)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, }\theta\textit{ is in the 4th quadrant}

so... notice the picture below, the angle in the fourth quadrant
now... notice, the cosine is just the distance the angle makes with the x-axis
so... using the pythagorean theorem, get the opposite side, from that triangle, keeping in mind that, "y" is negative in the 4th quadrant

once you get "y", get any other trigonometry value you need :)

Where will these 2 lines intersect?<br><br> y = 2x + 7 and x = y + 4
defon
To find the intersecting point, you have to put the two formulas equal to each other
First isolate the same variable, in this case y
So y=x-4

Now we can say
2x + 7 = x - 4

Now solve for x

X= 3

Now fill this in in either one of the formulas

Y= 2 (3) + 7
Y= 13

So they’ll intersect at (3,13)
