f(c + a) = 2.1 c + 2.1 a - 1.7

f(1/3 x - 2/3) = 0.7 x - 3.1

f(x + 2) = 2.1 x + 2.5

f(3c) = 6.3 c - 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is f(x) = 2.1 x - 1.7

We need to use this formula to find

f(c + a)
f(1/3x - 2/3)
f(x + 2)
f(3c)

To solve the problem substitute x by each value in the bracket

∵ f(x) = 2.1 x - 1.7

f(c + a) means substitute x by c + a

∵ x = c + a

∴ f(c + a) = 2.1(c + a) - 1.7

- Multiply the bracket by 2.1

∴ f(c + a) = 2.1 c + 2.1 a - 1.7

∵ f(x) = 2.1 x - 1.7

- f(1/3 x - 2/3) means substitute x by 1/3 x - 2/3

∵ x = 1/3 x - 2/3

∴ f(1/3 x - 2/3) = 2.1(1/3 x - 2/3) - 1.7

- Multiply the bracket by 2.1

∴ f(1/3 x - 2/3) = 0.7 x - 1.4 - 1.7

- Add the like terms

∴ f(1/3 x - 2/3) = 0.7 x - 3.1

∵ f(x) = 2.1 x - 1.7

- f(x + 2) means substitute x by x + 2

∵ x = x + 2

∴ f(x + 2) = 2.1(x + 2) - 1.7

- Multiply the bracket by 2.1

∴ f(x + 2) = 2.1 x + 4.2 - 1.7

- Add the like terms

∴ f(x + 2) = 2.1 x + 2.5

∵ f(x) = 2.1 x - 1.7

- f(3c) means substitute x by 3c

∵ x = 3c

∴ f(3c) = 2.1(3c) - 1.7

- Multiply 2.1 by 3c

∴ f(3c) = 6.3 c - 1.7

What is the value of x in the equation 2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x? x = -3 х=-1 x = 0 х= 3

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

x=0

all you have to do it plug the diffrent answers into as x and see which one works out, in this case 0 works on both side to get it equale

Quadrilateral ABCD is similiar to quadrilateral EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD are 60 feet,

babunello [35]

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Quadrilateral ABCD is similar to Quadrilateral EFGH. This means that the corresponding sides of these two quadrilateral will be in the same proportion.

i.e.

Ratio of two corresponding sides would be the same. We are given longest three sides of ABCD and shortest two sides of EFGH. Let the 4th sides of ABCD i.e. the shortest side be x.

So, the ratio of the shortest sides of two quadrilaterals would be the same as the ratio of second shortest sides.

So,

$x:6=30:12\\\\\frac{x}{6}=\frac{30}{12}\\\\ x=\frac{30}{12} \times 6\\\\ x = 15$

So, the 4th side on quadrilateral ABCD would be 15 feet. None of the options match with the answer.

1 centimeter = 3 meters. A rectangle with length 7 centimeters and width 1.75 centimeters.

artcher [175]

Answer:

The length if the garden is 21 meters.

The width of the garden is 5.25 meters.

If the scale changes to 1 cm : 9 meters, the new length of the garden is 63 meters and the new width of the garden is 15.75 meters.

The new length of the garden is 3 times as long as the original length of the garden.

Which of the following is an example of quantitative data? A the player’s number on a baseball uniform B the serial number on a

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The number of people in a waiting line is a quantitative data as we can count them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The value of quantitative data can be determined by counting or measuring something.

Now consider the provided options.

The player’s number on a baseball uniform, the serial number on a one-dollar bill and the part number of an inventory item is not a quantitative data because we can't measure them.

The number of people in a waiting line is a quantitative data as we can count them.
