What is the answer of 12(x - 4) = 144

Mathematics

Answer:

x= -16

Step-by-step explanation:

You would expand brackets

12xX and 12x4

this would result in:

12x-48= 144

you would then cancel 48 by plus

so

+48= +48

this would get

12x=192

you want x by itself so divide 12x by -12  (to cancel them out) and  192 by -12

THIS would equal:

x= -16

Answer:

x= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

12(x-4) = 144

(Divide 12 both sides)

x - 4 = 12

(add 4 both sides)

x = 16

How many solutions does this system have? y=5x-1 y=-3+7
Ksenya-84 [330]
I'll assume that's

y=5x-1

y=-3x + 7

Please let me know if that's wrong.

These are two lines in point slope form.   They'll meet at some x that makes the ys equal.


5x-1 = -3x + 7

5x + 3x =1+ 7

8x= 8

x= 1
 
y=5x-1 = 5(1)-1 = 4

(x,y)=(1,4) is the only solution.

Exactly one solution.

We really only had to ensure the lines had two different slopes.  Then there's always exactly one solution.

If the lines had the same slope, they're either the same line (coincident) so an infinite number of solutions, all the points on that line, or they're parallel, no solutions.

What are the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola described by the equation below? y=7(x+5)^2-4
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

y= 7(x+5)^2 -4

The vertex form for a parabola is given by this expression:

y = a(x-h)^2 +k

By direct comparison we see that for this case:

a = 7, h = -5 and k=-4

And we know from the general expression that the vertex is:

V= (h,k)

So then the vertex for this case is:

V= (-5,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function:

y= 7(x+5)^2 -4

And we need to take in count that the vertex form for a parabola is given by this expression:

y = a(x-h)^2 +k

By direct comparison we see that for this case:

a = 7, h = -5 and k=-4

And we know from the general expression that the vertex is:

V= (h,k)

So then the vertex for this case is:

V= (-5,-4)
