Switching to common denominators, alexa ran 18/24 of a mile. caleb ran 15/24 of a mile. for alexa’s distance, you would do (2•8)+(3•8). for caleb’s distance you would do (5•3)+(8•3). hope this helped!

What is the solution of the system? Use substitution.
trasher [3.6K]

Hi

4x-y=5

3x-7=2

We need to solve 3x-7=2 for x

Let's start by adding 7 to both sides

3x-7+7=2+7

3x=9

Now just divide both sides by 3 so we can find the value for x

3x/3=9/3

x=3

Now substitute 3 for x in 4x-y=5

4x-y=5

(4)(3)-y=5

-y+12=5

Now add -12

-y=12-12=5-12

-y=-7

Divide both sides by -1 so we can eliminate the negative sign

-y/-1=-7/-1

y=3

The answer is A

(3,7)

I hope that's help:0

12) Write the equation of a rational function
aev [14]

Answer:

\frac{4(x - 5)(x + 7)(x - 12)}{(x + 1)(x)(x - 12)}

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational function is

\frac{p(x)}{q(x)}

where q(x) doesn't equal zero.

If p is a asymptote, or hole at that value, then we will use

(x - p)

Step 1: We have asymptote as 0 and -1 so our denomiator will include

(x - 0)(x - ( - 1)

Which is

(x)(x + 1)

So our denomator so far is

\frac{p(x)}{x(x + 1)}

Step 2: Find Holes.

Since 12 is the value of the hole,

(x - 12)

is a the binomial.

This will be both on the numerator and denomator so qe have

\frac{(x - 12)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}

Step 3: Put the x intercepts in the numerator.

Since 5 and -7 is the intercepts,

\frac{(x - 12)(x - 5)(x + 7)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}

Step 4: Horinzontal Asymptotes,

Multiply the numerator and denomiator out fully,

\frac{  {x}^{3} - 10 {x}^{2}  - 59x + 420 }{ {x}^{3} - 12 {x}^{2}   + x - 12}

Take a L

look at the coefficients,

Notice they have the same degree,3, this means if we divide the leading coefficents, we will get our horinzonral asymptote.

Multiply the numerator by 4.

\frac{4(x - 12)(x - 5)(x - 7)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}

Above is the function,

We are given with a verbal phrase of a function<span> of x is equal to the square root of x plus one divided by x plus four times x minus six. 

This is expressed as f(x) = </span>√(x) + 1/x + 4x - 6 
the domain are values which include only natural numbers because of the square root sign. answer is D. <span>x ≥ 0</span>

Given two dice, what is the probability of rolling a four on the second die, given that you already rolled a four on the first d
Sholpan [36]

Answer:   1/6

Reason:

There's 1 side labeled "4" out of 6 sides total. So that's where the 1/6 comes from.

The "given that you already rolled a four on the first die" is unneeded info in my opinion, because each die is separate or independent from one another.
