Answer:

The value of x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must expand everything:

2(2x+1) - 3(x-1) = 8

2(2x)+2(1) - 3(x)+3(1) = 8

4x + 2 - 3x + 3 = 8

x + 5 = 8

Then, move all the unknown value to one side:

x = 8 - 5

= 3

Answer: x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation, open the bracket to give

4x + 2- 3x + 3= 8

Combine like terms

4x-3x= 8-3-2

x=8-5

x=3

The hypotenuse of the right triangle is 5y inches long. The lengths of the legs are x + 8 and x + 3 inches. If the perimeter of
Zolol [24]

Answer: 35 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

hypotenuse = 5*y in

cathetus 1 = (x + 8) in

cathetus 2 = (x + 3) in

The perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches, then:

5*y + (x + 8) + (x + 3) = 76

5*y + 2*x + 13 = 76

We also know that the length of the hypotenuse minus the length of the shorter leg is 17 in.

The shorter leg is x + 3, then:

5*y - (x + 3) = 17

Then we have the equations:

5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76

5*y - (x + 3) = 17

With only these two we can solve the system, first we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate x in the second equation.

x = 5*y  - 3 - 17 = 5*y - 20

x = 5*y - 20

Now we can replace this in the other equation, we get:

5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76

5*y + 2*(5*y - 20) + 11 = 76

15*y - 40 + 13 = 76

15*y - 29 = 76

15*y = 76 + 29 = 105

and remember that the hypotenuse is equal to 5*y, then we want to get:

3*(5*y) = 105

5*y = 105/3 = 35

5*y = 35

Then te length of the hypotenuse is 35 inches.

State the domain of the rational function. f(x) = seventeen divided by quantity five minus x
alexandr1967 [171]

If we are going to write the equation in its mathematical form, we will see that it becomes,

<span>                                        f(x) = 17/(x – 5)</span>

The domain of the function is the number of x that would allow us to solve the equation and get a real value for f(x). In this equation, x can take any real numbers so long as it is not 5. This is because 5 – 5 in the denominator will lead to 0 which in turn makes the equation indefinite.

At what point on the curve x^2 + y^2 = 9 is the tangent line vertical?
Gemiola [76]

x² + y² = 9 is the equation of a circle with center (0, 0) and radius 3.

This puts the vertices at (-3, 0), (3, 0), (0, -3), and (0, 3).

When is the tangent line vertical? <em>when it passes through the x-axis.</em>

Answer: (-3, 0), (3, 0)
