A heated piece of metal cools according to the function c(x) = (.5)x − 11, where x is measured in hours. A device is added that

aids in cooling according to the function h(x) = −x − 3. What will be the temperature of the metal after five hours? (1 point)

16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.

The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.

The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.

Find the value of x for the following equivalent functions: f(x)=2x^2−3x+4 and f(x)=2x^2−1
masha68 [24]
A) y = 2x – 7  and f(x) = 7 – 2xIncorrect. These equations look similar but are not the same. The first has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of −7. The second function has a slope of −2 and a y-intercept of 7. It slopes in the opposite direction. They do not produce the same graph, so they are not the same function. The correct answer is f(x) = 3x2 + 5 and y = 3x2 + 5. B) 3x = y – 2  and f(x) = 3x – 2Incorrect. These equations represent two different functions. If you rewrite the first equation in terms of y, you’ll find the equation of the function is y = 3x + 2. The correct answer is f(x) = 3x2 + 5 and y = 3x2 + 5. C) f(x) = 3x2 + 5 and y = 3x2 + 5Correct. The expressions that follow f(x) = and y = are the same, so these are two different ways to write the same function: f(x) = 3x2 + 5 and y = 3x2 + 5. D) None of the aboveIncorrect. Look at the expressions that follow f(x) = and y =. If the expressions are the same, then the equations represent the same exact function. The correct answer is f(x) = 3x2 + 5 and y = 3x2 + 5.

PLEASE HELP ME, ILL BRAINLIEST YOU ill give u 30 points if you help
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

x = 58

y = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

  • This is a rhombus becuase it a quadralterial and it has four right triangles, and it diagonals bisect each others so it cant be a trapezoid, and paralleolgram. and it doesnt have four right corner angles so it cant be a square or rectangle or kite.

A rhombus inner angle measure is 90 degrees.

So

y = 90

This means the upper left angle of the top triangle measure is 58 becuase triangle interior theorem.

Since a rhombus bisects angles, angle x measure 58.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x – 10?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = (1/2)x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

In y = f(x), swap the variables, then solve for y. The expression you get is f⁻¹(x).

... y = 2x -10

... x = 2y -10 . . . . . . swapped variables

... x +10 = 2y . . . . . add 10

... (1/2)x + 5 = y . . . . divide by 2

... f⁻¹(x) = (1/2)x + 5 . . . . . . rewrite using function notation

A newspaper’s cover page is 3/8 text, and photographs fill the rest. If 2/5 of the text is an article about endangered species,
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

\frac{3}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cover page

We are given that a newspaper 's cover page is \frac{3}{8} text and photograph fill the rest.

We have to find that how much part of cover's page is the article about endangered species

Text =\frac{3}{8}x

Remaining part =x-\frac{3}{8} x

Remaining part =\frac{8x-3x}{8}=\frac{5}{8} x

Therefore, a newspaper;s cover page fill with  Photograph =\frac{5}{8}

If the article about endangered species=\frac{2}{5} of text

Therefore, the article about endangered species=\frac{2}{5}\times\frac{3x}{8}=\frac{3}{20}x

Hence,  the article about endangered species is \frac{3}{20}of the cover page.
