Hi there!

Let's start by laying out an equation and replacing "a number" with the letter "X" just to make everything clearer :

6 subtracted from 5 times X = 9

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Now all you have to do left is solve the equation by isolating "X" :

(5 × X) - 6 = 9

Add 6 on each side of the equation

5 × X = 9

Divide each side of the equation by 5

X = 1.8

Your answer is : 6 subtracted from 5 times 1.8 is equal to 9.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

If f(x) =x^2 + 4x and g(x) = 2x +4, find (fg)(1)

snow_lady [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the composite result function.

f(g(x))f(g(x))

Evaluate f(g(x))f(g(x)) by substituting in the value of gg into ff.

f(x2)=2(x2)−4f(x2)=2(x2)-4

Multiply 22 by x2x2.

f(x2)=2x2−4f(x2)=2x2-4

A) Find the distance of line segment PR. Round answer to the nearest tenth. B) Find the distance around the park (perimeter).

juin [17]

Answer:

A. $PR = 80.6 yd$

B. Perimeter = 190.6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Distance between P(10, 50) and R(80, 10):

$PR = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{(80 - 10)^2 + (10 - 50)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{(70)^2 + (-40)^2}$

$PR = \sqrt{4,900 + 1,600}$

$PR = \sqrt{6,500}$

$PR = 80.6 yd$ (nearest tenth)

B. Distance around the park = Perimeter = PR + PQ + QR

PR = 80.6 yd

PQ = |50 - 10| = 40 yd

QR = |80 - 10| = 70 yd

Perimeter = 80.6 + 40 + 70

Perimeter = 190.6 yd
