Answer:

-5/6 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -12x+7

We want to find x when f(x) = 17

17 = -12x+7

Subtract 7 from each side

17-7 = -12x +7-7

10 = -12x

Divide each side by 12

10/-12 = -12x/-12

-5/6 =x

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x = -\frac{5}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -12x+7

Given that f(x) = 17

17 = -12x+7

Subtracting 7 to both sides

17-7 = -12x

10 =  -12 x

Dividing both sides by 12

x = - \frac{10}{12}

x = -\frac{5}{6}

As a fundraiser, the Music Boosters wrapped gifts at the mall one weekend. Out of the 100 gifts they wrapped, 3/10 were for wedd
dangina [55]

Answer: The fraction of the gifts were for birthdays = \dfrac{33}{100}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: fraction of gifts for weddings = \dfrac{3}{10}

fraction of gifts for baby showers = \dfrac{37}{100}

Rest of the gifts = 1-\dfrac3{10}-\dfrac{37}{100}

=\dfrac{100-30-37}{100}\ \ \ [\text{Making like fractions}]\\\\=\dfrac{100-67}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{33}{100}

Hence, the fraction of the gifts were for birthdays = \dfrac{33}{100}.

Remark
I didn't know this was a calculus question. How dumb of me.

f(x + h) - f(x)
==========
x + h  - h

50/6 - 51/6 =( -1/6+ h)/h 
The h's will disappear when the limit is taken.

answer - 1/6 which is A. If anyone else answers take their answer.

The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer. Find the two integers.
Minchanka [31]

The small number is 2.

The large number is 3.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.

  • x be the small integer.
  • x+1 be the large integer.

The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer

The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)

It is given that,

  • The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
  • This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
  • Here, the small integer is represented as x.

<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>

(2x+1) = 3x-1

Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,

3x-2x = 1+1

x = 2

Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.

What is the quotient in simplified form? State any restrictions on the variable? \frac{x^2-16}{x^2+5x+6} /\frac{x^2+5x+4}{x^2-2x
lora16 [44]
\frac{x^2-16}{x^2+5x+6} / \frac{x^2+5x+4}{x^2-2x-8}

We can begin by rearranging this into multiplication:

\frac{x^2-16}{x^2+5x+6} * \frac{x^2-2x-8}{x^2+5x+4}

Now we can factor the numerators and denominators:

\frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{(x+3)(x+2)} * \frac{(x-4)(x+2)}{(x+4)(x+1)}

The factors (x+4) and (x+2) cancel out, leaving us with:

\frac{(x-4)}{(x+3)} * \frac{(x-4)}{(x+1)}

Our answer comes out to be:

\frac{(x-4)^{2} }{(x+3)(x+1)} or \frac{ x^{2} -8x+16}{ x^{2}+4x+3 }

Based on the numerator of the second fraction (since we used its inverse), the denominators of both, and the factors we canceled out earlier, the restrictions are x ≠ -4, -3, -2, -1, 4
