Mathematics
2 answers:
Olegator [25]3 years ago

Answer:

\displaystyle x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+15=40

Subtract 15 on both sides of the equation.

5x+15-15=40-15

5x=40-15

5x=25

Divide 5 into both sides of the equation.

\displaystyle \frac{5x}{5} =\frac{25}{5}

\displaystyle x=5

Given a polynomial f(x), if (x + 7) is a factor, what else must be true? f(0)=7 f(0)=-7 f(7)=0 f(-7)=0

F(-7)=0  

Because that makes the (x+7) factor equal zero and any other factor multiplied by zero also results in zero.

How do i factor 2x^2+11x+5
ira [324]
For simple integer factors as this one has, you want to find two values for the quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c.   Let the two values be j and k.  These two values must satisfy two conditions.

jk=ac=10 and j+k=b=11, so j and k must be 1 and 10.

Now replace bx with jx and kx...

2x^2+x+10x+5  now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms.

x(2x+1)+5(2x+1)

(x+5)(2x+1)

A geometry class has a total of 27 students. The number of females is 13 less than the number of males. How many males and how m
boyakko [2]

Answer:

20 males and 7 females

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of females is x and the number of males is y.

We know that the total number of students is 27, which can also be written as x + y. So, these two expressions are equal: x + y = 27.

There are 13 fewer females than males, so: x = y - 13.

Now, we can use substitution to solve this system of linear equations.

Since x = y - 13, we can plug in y - 13 for x in x + y = 27:

x + y = 27 ⇒ (y - 13) + y = 27 ⇒ 2y - 13 = 27 ⇒ 2y = 40 ⇒ y = 20

Then, we use this value of y to solve for x:

x = y - 13 = 20 - 13 = 7

Thus, there are 20 males and 7 females.

Hope this helps!

I need help with these two questions can some explain it to me how to do these two question
GrogVix [38]

the numbers inside the () are first number is x second number is y so it is (x,y)

so for y<x the second number needs to be smaller than the first number

 so right away (3,3) is not the answer

 and then y also has to be greater then 2x-3

 so replace x with the fist numbers and see what you get.

(2x2)-3 = 4-3 = -1 since -1 is not greater than -1 the second answer (2,-1) is not right

 3rd one (-1,-2) 2(-1)-3 = -2-3=-5

so -2 is greater than -5 and -2 is less than -1 so the 3rd one is the answer
