What is the contrapositive of the statement if 4x = 12,then x= 3

Mathematics

You reverse the conclusion and the hypothesis.

Hypothesis= If

Conclusion= then

And then, you flip what it is saying to be the opposite. 

Converse:

If x=3, then 4x= 12.

Contrapositive:

If x isn't 3, then 4x does not equal 12.

I hope this helps!

Suppose that y varies inversely with x. Use the information to find k, and then choose the equation of variation. x = 1.2 when y
baherus [9]
Y = k/x where k is the constant of variation
y = 3 , x = 1.2 gives
3 = k/1.2
therefore 
k = 3*1.2 = 3.6
and the  required equation is 

y = 3.6 / x

Lisa claims that when multiplying any number between 0 and 10 by 100, the product is greater than 100. What is a possible number
dlinn [17]
The number is 1. 1 multiplied by 100 gives 100 as answer. Lisa claims that <span>when multiplying any number between 0 and 10 by 100, the product is greater than 100. In this case the answer is equal to 100 not greater than 100. 

So this proof shows that Lisa's claim is not correct. </span>

What is the completely factored form of f(x)=x3+5x2+4x−6?
Gre4nikov [31]
f(x)=x^3+5x^2+4x-6
f(-3)=(-3)^3+5(-3)^2+4(-3)-6=0\implies x+3\text{ is a factor of }f(x)

Synthetic division yields

-3  |  1   5   4   -6
.    |      -3  -6    6
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
.    |  1   2  -2    0

which translates to

\dfrac{x^3+5x^2+4x-6}{x+3}=x^2+2x-2

with remainder 0. Now by the quadratic formula,

x^2+2x-2=0\implies x=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-2)}}2=-1\pm\sqrt3

and so

f(x)=x^3+5x^2+4x-6=(x+3)(x-(-1+\sqrt3))(x-(-1-\sqrt3))
