Answer:

The two numbers are -365 and -1825.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=y

x-y=1460

--------------

x-5x=1460

-4x=1460

x=1460/-4

x=-365

-365-y=1460

y=-365-1460=-1825

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0 = 2x2 + 3x – 8?

zmey [24]

2x² + 3x -8 = 0

a = 2 , b = 3 , c = -8
So..
D = b²-4ac = 9 + 64 = 73

for bigger solution , use x = -b + √D / 2a
For smaller solution, use x = -b - √D / 2a

So
= -3 + √73 / 2. 2
= 1/4 (√73 -3)

Hopefully helpfull.. ^_^

Find the equation of the exponential function represented by the table below:

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The equation of the exponential function represented by the table will be:

$f(x)= 2(4)^{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the equation of exponential function such as

$f(x) = ab^{x}$

Put x=0, and y=2 in the function

$2 = ab^{0}$

$2 = a$

Also x=1, and y=8 in the function

$8 = 2b^{1}$

$b=4$

Thus,

$f(x) = ab^{x}$

$= 2(4)^{x}$

Therefore, the equation of the exponential function represented by the table will be:

$f(x)= 2(4)^{x}$

Answer:

One proportion

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion refers to a statement that two different ratios are equal. There are two ways It can be written: since two equal fractions a/b = c/d; or using a colon, a:b = c:d. in view of the fact that the cross products are of both equal to one hundred, we are aware that these ratios are equal and that this is a true proportion.
