Nia solved the equation -1.98 = 5.2v + 13.1. Her answer was v = -2.9. She is fairly confident about her answer, but wants to do

a quick check of her solution using estimation to make sure her answer is reasonable.
Which of the following shows a good check of her answer?

-2 = 5(-3) + 13
-3 = 5(-2) + 13
-1 = 5(-2) + 13
-2 = 5(-2) + 13

To solve this, just round each number. -1.98≈-2, 5.2≈5, -2.9≈-3, 13.1≈13. The only answer choice which correctly rounds these is A, -2=5(-3)+13

Answer:

41 2/3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of wall lengths (in feet) is ...

(12 1/4) + (10) + (12 1/4) + (10 -2 5/6)

= (12 + 10 + 12 + 8) + (1/4 + 1/4 - 5/6)

= 42 + (3/12 + 3/12 -10/12)

= 42 - 4/12 = 42 - 1/3

= 41 2/3 . . . feet

1-25. Given f(x) =- 2/3x +3 and g(x) = 2x2 - 5, complete parts (a) through (f).

Korolek [52]

Answer:

When f or g are equivalent to a number you are solving for x. For example b, d, e, f. In the equation g(x) =2x2-5 I assumed 2 was a typo. So, if it's incorrect, please use same steps and just adjust the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=-\frac{2}{3x}+3$

a) $f(3)=-\frac{2}{2(3)} +3$

$=-\frac{1}{3}+3$ $=\frac{-1+6}{3}$ $=\frac{5}{3}$

b) $f(x)=-5$

$-5=-\frac{2}{3x}+3$

$-8=-\frac{2}{3x}$

$-24x=-2$

$x=\frac{1}{12}$

$g(x)=2x-5$

c) $g(-3)=2(-3)-5$

$=-6-5$

$=-11$

d) $g(x)=-7$

$-7=2x-5$

$-2=2x$

$x=-1$

e) $g(x)=8$

$8=2x-5$

$12=2x$

$x=6$

f) $g(x)=9$

$9=2x-5$

$11=2x$

$x=\frac{11}{2}$

15 POINTS ITS MY TEST ALREADY MISSING PLEASE HELP ON THIS ONE

const2013 [10]

Melanie walked 2.2 miles. Cathy walked 1.75 times as far. This means that you need to do 2.2 * 1.75 which equals 3.85. To find how much further, do 3.85 - 2.2 which equals 1.65. Therefore Cathy walked 1.65 more miles than Melanie.

I dont understand the problem

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

equation of a line:

y = mx+c

1) find the gradient, m

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

$m = \frac{ - 4 - ( - 4)}{ - 10 - 1}$

$m = 0$

2) find y-intercept, c using coordinate (1,-4)

y = mx + c

-4 = 0(1) + c

c = -4

the equation of line:

y = mx+c

y = 0(x) + c

y = c

y = -4
