Svetlanka [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<u><em>Answer is below</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Multiply both sides by -2.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>12x/-2=48\\(12x-2)(-2)=(48)(-2)\\12x=-96

<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>

<em><u /></em>\frac{12x}{12}=\frac{-96}{12}\\ x=-8

Rewrite each expression as a polynomial in standard form.a)(x+i)(x-i)b)(x+5i)(x-5i)
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a) x² +1

b) x² +25

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (x+i)(x− i)

   = x² - ( i ) x + ( i ) x - ( i)²

   = x² -  i²                       ∵ i² = -1

   = x² -  (-1)

   = x² +1

b) (x+5 i)(x− 5i)

 = x² - ( 5 i ) x + ( 5 i ) x - ( 5 i)²

   = x² - 25 i²                       ∵ i² = -1

   = x² -  25(-1)

   = x² +25

we can also solve

using identity

   (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

   = (x+5 i)(x− 5i)    

   = x² - (5 i)²

   = x² - 25 i²

   = x² +25

Two numbers have a sum of 18, and 4 times the first number minus the second number is equal to 17. What is the smallest number?
sammy [17]

Answer:

The smallest number is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using simultaneous equation;

x+y = 18.....(1)

4x-y = 17.....(2)

from equation (1)..

x+y = 18

y = 18-x...(3)

substitute y into equation (2)

4x-y = 17

4x-(18-x) = 17

4x-18+x = 17

4x+x = 17+18

5x = 35

x = 35÷5

x = 7

substitute x into equation (3)

y = 18-x

y = 18-7

y = 11

Therefore; x=7

y=11

11+7=18

(4×7)-11=17

the smallest number is 7

The line passing through (-4,6) and parallel to the line y=3x+8
Allisa [31]
<span>y=3x+8
if it's parallel to this line, then the slope will also be 3.

slope = 3
</span><span>x</span>₁ = -4
<span>y</span>₁ = 6
<span>
</span><span>for this question, we use point-slope
y - y</span>₁ = m(x - x₁)

y + 4 = 3(x - 6)
y + 4 = 3x - 18

y = 3x - 14
this is your equation

Can a translation and a reflection map TriangleQRS to TriangleTUV?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, a translation mapping vertex Q to vertex T and a reflection across the line containing QS will map △QRS to △TUV. No, the triangles are obtuse. Yes, a translation mapping vertex S to vertex T and a reflection across the line containing RS will map △QRS to △TUV.

A car is traveling at a constant velocity. After two hours the car has traveled 110 miles.
hoa [83]

Answer:

As the velocity is constant,

Distance covered in n hours = n × distance covered in 1 hr

Distance covered in 7 hrs = 7 × 110 = 770 miles
