Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- (1/2) / 4 = x / 5
- 1 / 8 = x / 5
- x = 5 / 8
So 7 x = x2 -18 so you get the quadratic x^2 -7x -18 and then get 2 x -9= -18 and 2 + -9 = -7 so you get (x + 2) ( x - 9) so the positive solution would be x-9 = 0 so x= 9. Hope this helps :)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 99, the least common multiple of 9,39,3.
m + 6 =21
Subtract 6 from both sides.
m = 21 - 6
Subtract 6 from 21 to get 15.
m=15
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure what your problem here is.
you understand the inequality signs ?
anyway, to get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)
we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.
f(-2)
we look at the definition.
into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?
is -2 < -2 ? no.
is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.
so, we have to use
1/3 x³
for x = -2 that is
1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3
g(1)
again, we look at the definition.
into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?
is 1 > 2 ? no.
is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.
so we have to use
2×|x - 1| + 3
for x = 1 we get
2×0 + 3 = 3
6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16
3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9
and so in total we get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7
