Simplify both sides of the equation

4(x-3) = 7x+24

4x-12 = 7x+24

Subtract 7x from both sides

4x-12-7x= 7x+24-7x

-3x-12= 24

Add 12 to both sides

-3x-12+12 = 24+12

-3x=36

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3= 36/-3

x = -12

Answer : B

I hope that's help !

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p(x) be the profit function.

$\therefore \: p(x) = r(x) - c(x) \\ = 6.5x -( 0.75x + 1850) \\ = 6.5x - 0.75x - 1850 \\ \purple{ \boxed{ \bold{ \therefore \: p(x) = 5.75x - 1850}}} \\ this \: is \: the \: profit \: function. \\ \\ p(500) = 5.75 \times 500 - 1850 \\ = 2875 - 1850 \\ p(500) = 1025 \\ \\ p(1000) = 5.75 \times 1000 - 1850 \\ = 5750 - 1850 \\ p(1000) = 3900 \\ \\ p(5000) = 5.75 \times 5000 - 1850 \\ = 28750 - 1850 \\ p(5000) = 26900$

A gardenar expects that 75% of the seeds she plants will produce plants. she wants 45 plants how manybseefs should she plant

denis23 [38]

Hey You!

So, this question is basically asking you, '45 is 75% of what number?'

Use The Percentage Formula To Solve:

45 / 75 × 100 = 60

The gardener but plant 60 seeds to get 45 plants.

Please help me with this

Answer:

zero product property of multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

step 2 is valid, because for the main expression in step 1 to be true, only one of the 2 factors need to be 0, as

0 × something is always 0.

therefore, it is sufficient to find the values of x that renders the expression of one factor to 0.

Find the perimeter of the triangle defined by the coordinates (9, 0), (-5, 0), and (-10, 6). (Round to nearest tenth)

eduard

The perimeter is 41.7.

We first find the distance between each vertex using the distance formula:
$d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}
\\
\\=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(-5-9)^2}=\sqrt{0^2+(-14)^2}=\sqrt{196}=14
\\
\\d=\sqrt{(6-0)^2+(-10--5)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{36+25}=\sqrt{61}
\\=7.81
\\
\\d=\sqrt{(6-0)^2+(-10-9)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+(-19)^2}=\sqrt{36+361}=\sqrt{397}
\\=19.92$

We now find the perimeter by adding all of the side lengths:
14+7.81+19.92 = 41.73 ≈ 41.7
