Answer:
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
6x + -3(x + -8) = 9
Reorder the terms:
6x + -3(-8 + x) = 9
6x + (-8 * -3 + x * -3) = 9
6x + (24 + -3x) = 9
Reorder the terms:
24 + 6x + -3x = 9
Combine like terms: 6x + -3x = 3x
24 + 3x = 9
Solving
24 + 3x = 9
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-24' to each side of the equation.
24 + -24 + 3x = 9 + -24
Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0
0 + 3x = 9 + -24
3x = 9 + -24
Combine like terms: 9 + -24 = -15
3x = -15
Divide each side by '3'.
x = -5

Answer:
TRUE
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 2 triangles, ∆ABC and ∆DEF.
For the two trinagles to be considered similar, both must have their set of corresponding angles congruent to each other. That is, their corresponding angles are equal.
From the information given, the following are the set of corresponding angles:
<B = <E = 31°
<B = <D = 90°
<C = <F = 59° [180 - (90+31)]
The corresponding angles of both triangles are congruent. Therefore, it is guaranteed that ∆ABC is similar to ∆DEF (∆ABC ~ DEF).
The answer would be 901 because they said what is the least number they would need to read and their goal is MORE than 900. The amount of books that they already had is useless information (Ignore). They love giving trick questions. :)
Answer:
a) 18
b)x^2+10x+18
c)x^2 -6x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a case of plugging in the value into f(x).
a) f(-8)= -8^2 + 6(-8) +2
f(-8)= 64 + (-48) +2
f(-8)=64 + (-46)
f(-8)=18
b) f(x+2)= (x+2)^2+6(x+2)+2
So here I'll take a break to explain what's going on, because x+2 is a binomial meaning two terms and it is being squared I have to multiply the whole thing by itself. Meaning: (x+2) x (x+2), this is also known as foiling!! and for the next part its distributing 6 into x and 2.
f(x+2)= x^2+4x+4+6x+12+2
I'll reorder it
f(x+2)= x^2+4x+6x+12+2+4
f(x+2)= x^2+10x+18
c) f(-x)= -x^2+6(-x) +2
f(-x)= x^2 -6x+2
