Answer:

He should move 2 units further to the right of 7

Step-by-step explanation:

April's temperature = 7°C

Prediction for May is 2ºC higher than April.

So, May's temperatue =  7°C+2ºC =9ºC

Ken's used the number line to solve the problem.

Step 1)Starting at 0, moving right to 7

Step 2)moving 2 units to the left.

He did error in step 2 because the temperature is positive and numbers on right of the - are positive

So, he should move 2 units further to the right of 7

So, He did error in step 2 .

Correct steps :

Step 1)Starting at 0, moving right to 7

Step 2)moving further 2 units to the right.

Answer: Ken Should have moved 9 units to the right because his prediction for May is 9°C. Moving to the left part of the number line would take Ken into negative degrees. 9°C is warmer than 7°C. Therefore, Ken should have moved 9 units to the right of the number line instead of 2 units to the left.

Determine whether each of the following functions is even, odd, or neither even nor odd.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

A.) Even.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function is an even function, then

F(-x) = f(x)

Also, if a function is an odd function, then, f(-x) = -f(x)

You are given the below function

f(x) = 1 + 3x^2 − x^4

Let x = 2

Substitute 2 for x in the function

F(x) = 1 + 3(2)^2 - (2)^4

F(x) = 1 + 3(4) - 16

F(x) = 1 + 12 - 16

F(x) = -3

Also, Substitute -2 for x in the function

F(x) = 1 + 3(-2)^2 - (-2)^4

F(x) = 1 + 3(4) - 16

F(x) = 1 + 12 - 16

F(x) = -3

Since f(-x) = f(x), we can conclude that

F(x) = 1 + 3x^2 - x^4 is even

If AC = 24, find the value of x. Then find AB and BC
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, the correct question is:

If B is between A and C, and AB=3x+1, BC=2x-7, and AC=24, then find the value of x and the value of AB

Answer: The line segment addition postulate states that if a point B is placed between a line segment with end points A and C, then the distance between the points can be expressed by the equation:

AB + BC = AC

But AB=3x+1, BC=2x-7, and AC=24, Hence:

3x + 1 + 2x - 7 = 24

3x + 2x + 1 - 7 = 24

5x - 6 = 24

5x = 24 + 6

5x = 30

x = 6

AB = 3x + 1 = 3(6) + 1 = 18 + 1 = 19

BC = 2x - 7 = 2(6) - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5

Find the present value of $10,000 payable in five years at 6% simple interest.
Svet_ta [14]
We know, I = P * R * T /100
Here, P = 10,000
R = 6%
T = 5

Substitute their values into the expression,
I = 10000 * 6 * 5 /100
I = 300000 / 100
I = 300

Final Amount = Initial Amount + Interest Amount
Final Amount = 10,000 + 300 = 10,300

So, your final answer is $10,300

Hope this helps!

How do I do pre-Algebra???
Lana71 [14]

Hey there!

The main concept of pre-algebra is solving equations for variables in them.

For example, let's say you have the algebraic equation below.

x+1=3

With algebra, you need to figure what x is equal to. To do so, you will use inverse operations on both sides of the equation to isolate x one side, showing what it is equal to.

We would subtract 1 to both sides to isolate x on one side.

x+1-1=3-1

As you can see, +1-1=0, therefore, this would give us x+0, or just x. Now it is isolated and will show us what it is equal to.

x=3-1

x=2

Therefore, in our equation x+1=3, x would be equal to 2.

I hope this explanation helps! Have a great time here at Brainly!

The sum of three consecutive integers is 168. What are the integers
Tema [17]

Answer:

3X + 3 = 168

3X + 3 - 3 = 168 - 3

3X = 165

3X/3 = 165/3

X = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 168. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows: (X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 168
