64+(2x)=35(x-1)
expand
64+2x=35x-35
minus 2x from both sides
64=33x-35
add 35 to both sides
99=33x
divide both sides by 33
3=x
the number is 3

What value of x is in the solution set of –5x – 15 > 10 + 20x?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

-5x - 15 > 10 + 20x...subtract 10 from both sides, add 5x to both sides
-10 - 15 > 20x + 5x ...simplify
-25 > 25x...divide both sides by 25
-25/25 > x ....reduce
-1 > x or x < -1 <===

Kenyon ran for 8 miles each week while training. Here is his record of the number of miles he ran.

diamong [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the miles Kenyon ran on tuesday

Let y be the miles Kenyon ran on thursday

Given,

Mon + Tues + Wed + Thu = 8mi

$1.2 + x + 1.6 + y = 8 \\ 2.8 + x + y = 8 \\ x + y = 8 - 2.8 \\ x + y = 5.2$

also given,

$y = x + 0.4 \\ - x + y = 0.4$

Now we have x + y = 5.2 as equation 1 and -x + y = 0.4 as equation 2

Using equation 1,

$x + y = 5.2 \\ x = 5.2 - y$

Substitute this equation into equation 2.

$- (5.2 - y) + y = 0.4 \\ - 5.2 + y + y = 0.4 \\ - 5.2 + 2y = 0.4 \\ 2y = 0.4 + 5.2 \\ 2y = 5.6 \\ y = 5.6 \div 2 \\ = 2.8mi$

Substitute y = 2.8 into equation 1.

$x + 2.8 = 5.2 \\ x = 5.2 - 2.8 \\ = 2.4mi$

Therefore Kenyon ran 2.4 miles on tuesday, and ran 2.8 miles on thursday.

Plz help <br> I will be giving extra 50 points

Klio2033 [76]

it isn't possible to just give extra points in a simple and reliableway. anyways, let's starts.

a. is simple, just put the terms in order

r² +6r -5

because:

${r}^{2} + {6r}^{1} + {5r}^{0}$

anything to the power of 0 equals 1,

because it's the same as r/r, and 5 * r/r = 5*1

b. same logic as above

a²b² -5ab +33

c.

-c³ +ab +d +9

d.

-9y^5 - 2x³y²z +4x² +10x +1

^5 = to the power of five, it's the fastest way to type it without the special math input tool.

hope it helps you

Explain how to determine it a function is exponential growth or exponential decay. Give an example of each.

kozerog [31]

Answer: Formula is given in the picture Step-by-step explanation: For the exponential growth we have the formula Exponential functions are in the form y = ab^ xIf a is positive and b is greater than 1, then it is exponential growth. If a is positive and b is less than 1 but greater than 0, then it is exponential decay. For Example2 months ago you had 3 mice, you now have 18 shows and exponential growth And Atmospheric pressure (the pressure of air around you) decreases as you go higher shows exponential decay.
