Answer:

1. x < -4 or x ≥ 3

2. -2 < x ≤ 3 

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 5x - 5 ≥ 10

5x ≥ 15

x ≥ 3

-3x + 1 > 13

-3x > 12

x < -4

Solution is x < -4 or x ≥ 3

2. 5x + 3 ≤ 18

5x ≤ 15

x ≤ 3

4 - x < 6

-x < 2

x > - 2

answer is -2 < x ≤ 3

Consider the contrapositive of the statement you want to prove.

The contrapositive of the logical statement

p ⇒ q

¬q ⇒ ¬p

In this case, the contrapositive claims that

"If there are no scalars α and β such that c = αa + βb, then a₁b₂ - a₂b₁ = 0."

The first equation is captured by a system of linear equations,

$\begin{cases}c_1 = \alpha a_1 + \beta b_1\\ c_2 = \alpha a_2 + \beta b_2\end{cases}$

or in matrix form,

$\begin{pmatrix}c_1\\c_2\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}\alpha\\\beta\end{pmatrix}$

If this system has no solution, then the coefficient matrix on the right side must be singular and its determinant would be

$\begin{vmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{vmatrix} = a_1b_2-a_2b_1 = 0$

and this is what we wanted to prove. QED

Which ordered pair would form a proportional retationship with the points in the graph?

shtirl [24]

Answer:

(9, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

the given points are

(3, 2)

(6, 4)

so, can you see, how the sequence continues ?

I see immediately that for every 3 additional units of x we add 2 units of y.

so, yes, the next point in the sequence is

(6 + 3, 4 + 2) = (9, 6).

so, this point (or ordered pair) follows the same ratio or proportional relationship between x and y as the points already in the graph.

in other words, they are on the same line following the same slope ("y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another).

On section AB, whose length is 192 cm, take the point C so that AC: CB = 1: 3. The point D is taken on the AC section so that CD

jasenka [17]

Answer:

112 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AB = 192 cm
AC : CB = 1 : 3
CD = BC/12
The distance between midpoints of AD and CB = x

Find the length of AC and CB:

AC + CB = AB
AC + 3AC = 192
4AC = 192
AC = 192/4
AC = 48 cm

Find CB:

CB = 3AC = 3*48 = 144 cm

Find the length of CD:

CD = BC/12 = 144/12 = 12 cm

Find the length of AD:

AD = AC - CD = 48 - 12 = 36 cm

Find the midpoint of AD:

m(AD) = 36/2 = 18 cm

Find the midpoint of CB:

m(CB) = AC + 1/2CB = 48 + 144/2 = 48 + 82 = 130 cm

Find the distance between the midpoints:

x = 130 - 18 = 112 cm

Factor each trinomial completely. 4x^2 - 25b^2 and x^2 - 81

GenaCL600 [577]

Step-by-step explanation:

4x2 - 25b2

We can solve it by the squares so

(2x - 5b) (2x + 5b)

2) x2 - 81

The same case is here so

(x - 9) (x + 9)

Which is a good comparison of the estimated sum and the actual sum of 7 9/12 + 2 11/12?

natta225 [31]

7 9/12 = 7.75
2 11/12 = 2.917

So we can round both of these up.

7.75 rounds to 8
2.917 rounds to 3

8 + 3 = 11

So the estimated sum is 11.

7 9/12 + 2 11/12 = 10 2/3

So the actual sum is 10 2/3.

The estimated sum is a pretty good estimate to the original number.
