Answer:

−2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(x+8)

f(x) = 12

12 = 2(x+8)

Divide each side by 2

12/2 = 2/2(x+8)

6 = x+8

Subtract 8 from each side

6-8 =x+8-8

-2 = x

f(x) = 2(x+8)

replace f(x) with 12 and then solve for x:

12 = 2(x +8)

Use the distributive Property on the right side:

12 = 2x +16

Subtract 16 from each side:

-4 - 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

x = -4 / 2

x = -2

If y varies directly as x, and y=6 as x=-1, find y for the x-value of 5
Tema [17]

Answer:

y=-30

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

y varies directly as x

so, we can write equation as

y=kx

where

k is constant of proportionality

We have

at x=-1 , y=6

so, we can use it to find k

6=k(-1)

so, we get

k=-6

now, we can plug it back

y=-6x

now, we can plug x=5

and we get

y=-6\times 5

y=-30

Explain why the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational
spayn [35]
