The problem has you solving 4x = 88 and the first step - which is the proper step - is to divide by 4 on both sides. What it does is the following:

--gets x alone on one side of the equation

--keeps the equation balanced because it's on both sides

--Undoes the multiplying. Dividing and multiplying are inverse, or, undoing operations. 4 and x are put together with multiplying - so we use dividing to take it apart.

The idea of using 4 because it's a factor is the wrong choice. If the equation were 5x = 88 and you divide by 4, you aren't getting a single 1x alone. So the "divide because it's a factor" choice is wrong.

Thus the upper left choice is NOT a good reason and is the best answer.

Dividing 4× by 4 isolates x on one side of the equation.

all they others is a good reason to divide by 4

hope it helps

Two angles are complementary. The measure of the larger angle is 10 more than 4 times the measure of the smaller angle. Find the

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

16 = small

74 = big

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+10 = big angle

x = small angle

4x+10+x = 90

5x+10 = 90

5x = 80

x = 16

4 x 16 + 10 = 74

Select the correct answer. Which point is a solution of x + 2y ≤ 4? A. (2, 4) B. (1, 1) C. (3, 5) D. (-1, 5)

stira [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Of you put the values of c and y from B in the equation, then the result is,

$1 + 2 \times 1 \leqslant 4 \\ 1 + 2 \leqslant 4 \\ 3 \leqslant 4$

here, 3 is less than 4, which is true.

But the result will come out as greater than 4 if you put other points in the equation, which is not true for the given condition.

Brandon spends $25.30 on 2 large containers of popcorn and 4 large drinks. A large container of popcorn costs $5.25. What is the

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$3.70

Step-by-step explanation:

$25.30 = 2P + 4D. p for popcorn and d for drinks

P= $5.25

$25.30 = 2($5.25) + 4D

$25.30 = $10.50 + 4D

-10.50. -10.50

inverse operations

$14.80 = 4D

Which function has the following characteristics?

iren [92.7K]

Using the asymptote concept, the function with a vertical asymptote at x = 3 and an horizontal asymptote at $y = -\frac{1}{2}$ is given by:

$f(x) = -\frac{x}{2(x - 3)}$

<h3>What are the asymptotes of a function f(x)?</h3>

The vertical asymptotes are the values of x which are outside the domain, which in a fraction are the zeroes of the denominator.

The horizontal asymptote is the value of f(x) as x goes to infinity, as long as this value is different of infinity.

The vertical asymptote at x = 3 means that x = 3 is a root of the denominator, hence:

$f(x) = \frac{g(x)}{x - 3}$

The horizontal asymptote at y = -1/2 means that:

$\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}$

Which happens if $g(x) = -\frac{x}{2}$ , hence the function is:

$f(x) = -\frac{x}{2(x - 3)}$

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, approximately 300,000,000 m/s. Part A How much time does it take for a radio message t

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to understand that every time a radio wave goes 300,000,000 meters a second passes, literally what meter per second means. of course it doesn't go that far, it goes 384,000 one way and then the same distance back, which makes 768,000. Under a third of the distance to make 1 second, so it will be less than one second.

You also want to understand the formula for speed. speed = distance / time. Whch also means, to find time you can change it to be time = distance / speed. And hey, we have distance and speed. 768,000 / 300,000,000 = .00256, I'll leave the significant figures to you unless you need help with them. but that's .00256 of a second. or .00256 s
