To find y, when x = 2

we set up another ratio y/2

By the definition both ratios are equal 12/-15 = y/2

Multiple to each side by 2.

12*2/-15 = 2y/2

8/-5 = y

y = -8/5

Answer:

With the information given

on a scale of (12/-15) or -0.8. Meaning y is -8 tenths of x

so -0.8x2= -1.6

Answer: y= -1.6

Find the height of a triangle with an area of 42 square inches and base of 7 inches. Use the formula for the area of a triangle
disa [49]
A= 1/2bh

fill in formula with known numbers

42= 1/2(7)h
multiply numerators on right side

42= (1*7)/2h

42= 7/2h
divide both sides by 7/2

42 ÷ 7/2= h
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal/inverse of 7/2

42 * 2/7= h
multiply numerators

(42 * 2)/7= h

84/7= h

12 inches= h


ANSWER: The height is 12 inches.

Hope this helps! :)

Let g(x) = |x + 1|, solve the equation g(x) = 2x + 4
hammer [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x)= -x-1 or g(x) = x+1

if g(x) = -x-1

-x-1=2x+4

-x=2x+5

-x/2=x+5

-x/2 -x=5

-x/2-2x/2=5

-x-2x=5

-3x=5

x=5/-3

if g(x) = x+1

x+1=2x+4

x=2x+3

x/2=x+3

x/2-x=3

x/2-2x/2=3

x-2x=3

-x=3

x=3

Evaluate when x = 2<br> -X2 + 5x - 7
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x²-5x+7

f(2)=2²-5.2+7=4-10+7=11-10=1

f(-1)=(-1)²-5.(-1)+7=1+5+7=13

f(1/3)=(1/3)²-5(1/3)+7=1/9-5/3+7=49/9

∴, f(2)-f(-1)+f(1/3)

=1-13+49/9

=58/9-13

=-59/9
