A) By the rules of secants,
5(x +5) = 6(6 +4)
x + 5 = 12
x = 7

b) 3(3 +5) = 4(x +4)
6 = x +4
2 = x

Answer:

a) x = 7

b) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ( x + 5 ) = 6 ( 6 +4 )

⇒ Expand brackets

5 x + 25 = 36 + 24

⇒ Simplify

5 x + 25 = 60

⇒ Minus 25 from both sides to isolate 5 x

5 x = 35

x = 7

3 ( 3 + 5 ) = 4 ( x + 4 )

⇒ Expand brackets

9 + 15 = 4 x + 16

⇒ Simplify

24 = 4 x + 16

⇒ Minus 16 from both sides to isolate 4 x

8 = 4 x

⇒ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

2 = x

Answer:

To find the x intercept substitute 0 for y and solve for x. To find the y intercept substitute 0 for x and solve for y.

X intercept: (-2,0)

Y intercept: (0,5/2)

im not sure if you looking for the X and Y intercept for the second equation but if you are the

X intercept: (5/2,0)

Y intercept: (0,-5)

AM I CORRECT?? answer for 10 points

OverLord2011 [107]

lox (x) = -5

rewrite the equation in exponential form:

10^-5 = x

10^-5 = 1/10000

1/10000 = 0.00001

That is the correct answer.

I have <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdt%7D%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7Bx%7D%20" id="TexFormula1" title=

$\bf \cfrac{dx}{dt}=\cfrac{5}{t}\quad ,\quad x(0)=7\to 
\begin{cases}
f(t)=0\\
t=7
\end{cases}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\displaystyle \int \cfrac{5}{t}\cdot dt\implies 5\int \cfrac{1}{t}\cdot dt\implies 5ln|t|+C= f(t)
\\\\\\
\textit{now, we know when f(t)=0, t=7}\implies 5ln|7|+C=0
\\\\\\
C=-5ln(7)
\\\\\\
thus\implies \boxed{5ln|t|-5ln(7)=f(t)=x}$

notice |7| 7 is positive, so we can simply remove the bars and use 7 by itself

A certain brand of laundry detergent comes in two sizes. The smaller size is 24-oz and costs $3.99. The larger size is 64-oz and

vitfil [10]

$3.99/24oz= $0.16/oz (smaller size)
$6.99/64oz= $0.10/oz (larger size)

The larger size has the lower unit costs.
