x^2 = the first integer

(x - 1)^2 = the second integer.

x^2 - (x - 1)^2 = ?

First, let's plug a number into our equation for x.

(2)^2 - (2 - 1)^2 = ?

4 - (1)^2 = ?

4 - 1 = 3

As we can see the difference is odd but it's also the sum of the two consecutive integers.

2 + 1 = 3.

This works for all numbers. Let's plug another number into our equation for x.

(4)^2 - (4 - 1)^2 = ?

16 - (3)^2 = ?

16 - 9 = 7

4 + 3 = 7

Try any number and it will always be odd.

Solve for x 12x/5 a.x=-71/2 b. x=71/2 c. x= 43 1/5
babunello [35]

Answer:

x  = - 12 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 12x/5= 18

Get a common denominator on the left

5/5 x -12/5x = 18

Subtract

-7/5 x = 18

Multiply each side by -5/7 to isolate x

-5/7 *-7/5 x = -5/7 *18

x = -5*18/7

x = -90/7

Changing this to a mixed number

7 goes into 90   1 2 times with 6 left over

x  = - 12 6/7

Solution or Answer Please.
Ksju [112]

Pretty sure this is asking for the perimeter, so just add together the length of all the sides, 30 + 30 + 18 ( 1 yard is 3 feet so just multiply that ) + 18, which equals 96 feet.

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!

What is the rule that defines the function represented by the table?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The rule that defines the function represented by the table is:

  • c. f(x)=40(\frac{1}{4})^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the rule that defines the function represented by the table, you must know that f(x) = y, so, you can take formula by formula and replace in it the values given in the table, if the result is equal to y replacing the values of x, you're gonna know that formula is correct. Let's do that exercise with the formulas in order:

  • a. f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(40)^{x}

Now, we're gonna replace the variable x by the first value in the table: 0

  • f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(40)^{0}
  • f(x)=\frac{1}{4}*1
  • f(x)=\frac{1}{4}

How you can see in the table, exactly below the value 0 to the variable x is the value to y (40), how the answer with the A option doesn't result in 40, it doesn't the correct rule.

  • b. f(x)=\frac{1}{2}(40)^{x}

We replace with the value 0 again:

  • f(x)=\frac{1}{2}(40)^{0}
  • f(x)=\frac{1}{2}*1
  • f(x)=\frac{1}{2}

In this case, it neither gives us the value 40, for this reason, we pass to the next option:

  • c. f(x)=40(\frac{1}{4})^{x}

We replace with the value 0 one more time:

  • f(x)=40(\frac{1}{4})^{0}
  • f(x)=40*1
  • f(x)=40

With this option, the result is equal to the first datum, but, to check this, we can replace the same formula with one or two values more:

  • f(x)=40(\frac{1}{4})^{1}
  • f(x)=40*(\frac{1}{4})
  • f(x)=10

  • f(x)=40(\frac{1}{4})^{2}
  • f(x)=40*(\frac{1}{16})
  • f(x)=\frac{5}{2}

How you can see, with the C option, once you replace the value of x, the result is exactly the value for y, for this reason, <u>the C option is the correct answer</u>.
