Move terms

12+1.5a=3a

Collect the like terms

1.5a3a=-12

Divide both sides by -1.5

-1.5a=-12

a=8

Isolate the a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, subtract 1.5a from both sides

12 + 1.5a (-1.5a) = 3a (-1.5a)

12 = 3a - 1.5a

12 = 1.5a

Isolate the a. Divide 1.5 from both sides

(12)/1.5 = (1.5a)/1.5

a = 12/1.5

a = 8

8 is your answer for a.

______________________________________________________

Check: Plug in 8 for a.

12 + 1.5(8) = 3(8)

Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.

12 + 1.5(8) = 24

12 + 12 = 24

24 = 24 (True)

Answer:

79. [7, 12], [1, 6]

80. The total revenue in the month of May is $11,575

81. The total revenue in the month of November is $4,630

82. Values obtained from the model and actual values are almost the same, so the given model is precise.

Step-by-step explanation:

79.

The domain of a function is the set of x-values that we are allowed to plug into our function.

The graph below represents f(x),

the graph that the domain of the first part of the function is [7,12]. The domain of the second part of the function is [1,6]. The solution is:

f(x)=\left \{ {{-1.97x+26.3, 7 \leq x \leq 12} \atop {0.505x^{2} -1.47x+6.3, 1 \leq x \leq 6}} \right. \\\\

80.

1 ≤ 5 ≤ 6, so we'll plug the value 5 in the function f(x) = 0.505x² - 1.47x + 6.3

f(x) = y = (0.505)(5)² - 1.47(5) + 6.3

f(x) = y = (0.505)(25) - 7.35 + 6.3

f(x) = y = 12.625 - 1.05

f(x) = y = 11.575

For x=5 which represents 5th month May, we got y=11.575

Therefore, the total revenue in the month of May is 11.575 thousands dollars, ie 11,575 dollars.

81.

7 ≤ 11 ≤ 12, so we'll plug the value 11 in the function f(x) = -1.97x + 26.3

f(x) = − 1.97(11) + 26.3

     = − 21.67 + 26.3

     = 4.630.

For x=11 which represents 11th month November, we got y=4.630 Therefore, the total revenue in the month of November is 4.630 thousands dollars, 4,630 dollars.

82.

Values obtained from the model are y=11.575 (x=5) and y=4.630 (x=11). Actual data values are y=11.5 (x=5) and y=4.4 (x=11)

By comparing these values, we can conclude that the model is precise, because these values are almost the same.

Which expression can go in the blank to make the equation true? 60 – 31.2 + ? = 0 a. 60 – 31.2 b. -60 + (-31.2) c. 31.2 - 60 d.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

(c) 31.2-60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

60 – 31.2 + ? = 0

\Rightarrow ?=31.2-60

This is the same as the expression in option (c) 31.2-60.

Hence, option (c) is correct.
