Ji Sunn spent $24 at the local farmer’s market. She bought apples that cost $4 per pound and raspberries that cost $6 per pound.

Which equation can be used to represent the amount of raspberries, r, in terms of apples, a? r = 4 minus two-thirds a r = 4 + two-thirds a r = 6 minus three-halves a r = 6 + three-halves a

Answer:

r = 4 -2/3 a

Step-by-step explanation:

She spent in total 24 dollars.  So, you can set the equation equal to 24.

? = 24

It costs $4 per pound for apples and $6 per pound for raspberries.  You could represent apples as 4a and raspberries as 6r.  Put this into the equation.

4a + 6r = 24

Now set the equation equal to r.  You have to get r alone on one side.

4a + 6r = 24

(4a + 6r) - 4a = (24) - 4a

6r = 24 - 4a

6r = (24 - 4a)/6

r = 4 - 4/6 a

r = 4 - 2/3 a

Answer:

r = 4- 2a/3

In the words of the problem, its r = 4 minus two-thirds a

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a general equation for this problem, and then solve for r to get your answer. In this case its:

4a + 6r = 24

Now move 4a to the other side by subtracting 4a from both sides:

6r = 24-4a

Finally, divide both sides by 6 to get:

r = 4- 2a/3

In the words of the problem, its r = 4 minus two-thirds a

Answer:

X=1.132589

Step-by-step explanation:

If im correct the answer would be x=1.132589

3

x2−1

−2(x+3)=

5

x+1

3

(x+1)(x−1)

+−2x−6=

5

x+1

Multiply all terms by (x+1)(x-1) and cancel:

3+(−2x−6)(x+1)(x−1)=5(x−1)

−2x3−6x2+2x+9=5x−5(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−2x3−6x2+2x+9−(5x−5)=5x−5−(5x−5)(Subtract 5x-5 from both sides)

−2x3−6x2−3x+14=0

(Use cubic formula)

x=1.132589

And dont forget to check your answer

If f (x)=3x, g(x)=x-3, and h(x)= square root of x, find (fogoh)(25)
Lelu [443]
(f o g o h)(x) = f { g [ h(x) ] }

Which means: apply first function h, then apply function g to the result, and finally apply  function f to the new result.

h(25) = √25 = 5

g(5) = 5  - 3 = 2

f(2) = 3(2) = 6.
