Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x+1=4x+(-4)\qquad\text{subtract}\ 4x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\3x-4x+1=4x-4x-4\\\\-x+1=-4\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\\-x+1-1=-4-1\\\\-x=-5\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\x=5$

The nutrition facts label on a container of dry roasted cashews indicates there are 161 calories in 28 grams. You eat 9 cashews

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

there are 161 calories in 28 gram,then:

one gram of dry roasted cashews contains=161/28=5.75 calories

You eat 12 gram of it, =12*5.75=69 calories

9 cashews has 12gram, then:

one gram of dry roasted cashews contains= 9/12 = 0.75 cashews

there are total of 28gram in one serving.

Therefore cashews in one serving = 0.75*28=21cashews

a)69 calories

b)21cashews

A pond has 150 fish and the population decreases by 8% each day. How many days before there are 30 fish

nlexa [21]

Answer:

19 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = 150$ --- initial

$r = 8\%$ -- rate

Required

Days when the fish gets to 30

The function is exponential and as such it follows;

$y = ab^x$

Where x represents the number of days and y the number of fishes

Because the fishes decreases;

$b = 1 - r$

So, we have:

$b = 1 - 8\%$

Express as decimal

$b = 1 - 0.08$

$b = 0.92$

In $y = ab^x$

$a =150$

$y = 30$

$b = 0.92$

So, we have:

$30 = 150 * 0.92^x$

Divide both sides by 150

$0.2 = 0.92^x$

Take log of both sides

$log(0.2) = log(0.92^x)$

Apply law of logarithm

$log(0.2) = x\ log(0.92)$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{log(0.2)}{log(0.92)}$

$x = \frac{-0.6990}{-0.0362}$

$x = 19.309$

$x \approx 19$

Hence, it takes approximately 19 days

4TH TIME ASKING THIS!!! Please help me! Someone pleaseeee. I need the correct answers. I don’t want to fail

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The functions are inverses; f(g(x)) = x ⇒ answer D

$h^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{\frac{x+1}{3}}$ ⇒ answer D

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the inverse of a function

- Let f(x) = y

- Exchange x and y

- Solve to find the new y

- The new y = $f^{-1}(x)$

* Lets use these steps to solve the problems

∵ $f(x)=\sqrt{x-3}$

∵ f(x) = y

∴ $y=\sqrt{x-3}$

- Exchange x and y

∴ $x=\sqrt{y-3}$

- Square the two sides

∴ x² = y - 3

- Add 3 to both sides

∴ x² + 3 = y

- Change y by $f^{-1}(x)$

∴ $f^{-1}(x)=x^{2}+3$

∵ g(x) = x² + 3

∴ $f^{-1}(x)=g(x)$

∴ The functions are inverses to each other

* Now lets find f(g(x))

- To find f(g(x)) substitute x in f(x) by g(x)

∵ $f(x)=\sqrt{x-3}$

∵ g(x) = x² + 3

∴ $f(g(x))=\sqrt{(x^{2}+3)-3}=\sqrt{x^{2}+3-3}=\sqrt{x^{2}}=x$

∴ f(g(x)) = x

∴ The functions are inverses; f(g(x)) = x

* Lets find the inverse of h(x)

∵ h(x) = 3x² - 1 where x ≥ 0

- Let h(x) = y

∴ y = 3x² - 1

- Exchange x and y

∴ x = 3y² - 1

- Add 1 to both sides

∴ x + 1 = 3y²

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ $\frac{x + 1}{3}=y^{2}$

- Take √ for both sides

∴ ± $\sqrt{\frac{x+1}{3}}=y$

∵ x ≥ 0

∴ We will chose the positive value of the square root

∴ $\sqrt{\frac{x+1}{3}}=y$

- replace y by $h^{-1}(x)$

∴ $h^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{\frac{x+1}{3}}$

Find the missing side or angle. Round to the nearest tenth.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$b = 2.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

< C = 53°

< B = 80°

a = 2

Required:

Find b

Solution:

The question given suggests we are given measures for a ∆.

To find side b, which corresponds to angle B, first, we'd find angle A, which corresponds to side a, then apply the Law of sines to find side b.

=> A = 180 - (53 + 80) = 47°

Law of Sines: $\frac{a}{sin(A} = \frac{b}{sin(B}$

Plug in the values into the formula

$\frac{2}{sin(47} = \frac{b}{sin(80}$

Cross multiply

$2*sin(80) = b*sin(47)$

Divide both sides by sin(47) to make b the subject of formula

$\frac{2*sin(80)}{sin(47} = b$

$2.69 = b$

$b = 2.7$ (nearest tenth)

Someone please help me to find the answer to this geography problem please explain

Kisachek [45]

First, we must know what the two variables in the equation y=mx+b really means.

The M represents slope while the B represents the Y-intercept.

With that out of the way, take a look at your top equation, y = 3/2x + ?. If you noticed the question mark is in the spot of the B (Y-intercept), we can simply find this by finding where on the graph does the line intercept the Y-axis.

Triangle B shows the Y-intercept to be -7, this means that the hypotenuse intercepts the Y-axis at (0 , -7).

If we were to find the (what I like to call) the interception point of triangle A's hypotenuse and the Y-axis, we find our missing variable.

Just looking at the graph, we can count and visually determine that the Y-intercept of the hypotenuse is (0 , 1).

Therefore, we can say: The equation of A's hypotenuse is:
y = 3/2x + 1

Hope I could help you out!
