Set up a proportion: 25/100 = 50/n where n = # of teens surveyed
Simplify fraction: 1/4 = 50/n
Cross multiply: n = 200
So 200 teens were surveyed.
x-5= 0
move -5 to the other side
sign changes from -5 to +5
x-5+5= 0+5
x= 5
x-6= 0
x-6+6= 0+6
x= 6
Answer: B. 5 and 6
Answer:
- Positive at (-9, 2)
- Negative at ( -oo, -9) or (2, + oo)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given function</u>
<u>Getting zero's</u>
- -2x^2 - 14x + 36 = 0
- x^2 + 7x - 18 = 0
- x = ( -7 ± √(49 +72))/2 = ( -7 ± 11)/2
- x = - 9 and x = 2
<u>As the x^2 has negative coefficient, the function is positive between -9 and 2</u>
<u>And it is negative at:</u>
- x < -9 and
- x > 2
- or
- ( -oo, -9) or (2, + oo)
Answer:
5x + 6y = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard form means the x term will be on the farthest left, then the y term next, set equal to the constant (plain number) all by itself on the right.
Like this:
Ax + By = C
So you have
-5x - 14 = 6y
Add 14 to both sides.
-5x = 6y + 14
Subtract 6y from both sides.
-5x - 6y = 14
Also multiply both sides by -1, to make sure your A value (number next to the x) is positive.
5x + 6y = -14
