Solve the porportions. First, cross multiply

7/(x - 4) = 42/12

(7/(x-4))(x-4)(12) = (42/12)(12)(x-4)

7(12) = 42(x-4)

Simplify. (remember to distribute the 42 to both x and -4

84 = 42x - 168

Isolate the x. First add 168 to both sides

84 (+168) = 42x - 168 (+168)

42x = 84 + 168

42x =  252

Finally, isolate the x by dividing 42 from both sides

42x/42 = 252/42

x = 252/42

x = 6

6 is your answer

hope this helps

Write a system of equations to describe the situation. Then solve the system.
never [62]

Answer:

Shonda has ( x )dollars in her piggy bank.

Rizzo has ( x-1.50 )

if Shonda has $9 more than x; (x+9),would be equal to

3 times the dollars Rizzo has, or, 3(x-1.50). The two quantities are equal, we can solve for x.

x+9 = 3(x-1.50)

Dustribute the 3

x+9 = 3x - 4.50

Isolate the variable on the left and constants on the right of the equation by subtracting 3x and 9 from both sides.

x+9 = 3x - 4.50

-3x-9 = -3x - 9

-2x = - 13.50

Divide both sides by - 2

Shonda has; x = 6.75

Rizzo has; (6.75 - 1.50) = 5.25

6.75 + 9 = 3(6.75 - 1.50)

15.75 = 3(5.25) or 15.75.

Passes the check.

Shonda has $6.75 in her piggy bank and Rizzo has $5.25.

The inverse function of f(x) = ex has a asymptote at
gogolik [260]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the function f(x)=e^x. To find it inverse function, express x in terms of y:

y=e^x\\ \\\ln y=x

Now change x into y and y into x:

y=\ln x\\ \\f^{-1}(x)=\ln x

The graph of the function f^{-1}(x) has vertical asymptote x=0.
