How do you solve ? 2(x−(3+2x)+9)=3x−8

Hey there!!

Given equation :

... 2 ( x - ( 3 + 2x ) + 9 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... 2 ( x - 3 - 2x + 9 ) = 3x - 8

... 2 ( -x + 6 ) = 3x - 8

Using the distributive property.

... -2x + 12 = 3x - 8

Subtracting 12 on both sides.

... -2x = 3x - 8 - 12

... -2x = 3x - 20

Subtracting 3x on both sides.

... -2x - 3x = -20

... -5x = -20

Dividing by -5 on both sides.

... x = -20 / -5

... x = 4

<em>Hence, the answer is 4. </em>

Hope my answer helps!

Determine two pairs of polar coordinates for the point (4, -4) with 0° ≤ θ &lt; 360°.
umka2103 [35]
A polar coordinate is that which can be written as (r, θ) where r is the radius and θ is the angle. 

The radius, r, is also the hypotenuse of the right triangle that can be formed. Hence, it can be calculated through the equation,
    
                   r² = x² + y²
If we are to simplify this for the r alone, we have,
                     r = sqrt (x² + y²)

Substituting the known values,
               r = sqrt ((4)² + (-4)²) = 4√2

The x and y can be related through the trigonometric function, tangent. 
      tan θ = y/x
To solve for θ
   θ = tan⁻¹(y/x) = tan⁻¹(-4/4) = -45° = 315°

Hence, the polar coordinate is <em>(4√2, 315°)</em>

What are the domain and range of the function f(x) = x^4-2x^2-4 ?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Think about what domain and range is. Domain is the x and range is the y.

Step-by-step explanation: What values of x can you put in this function? Is there any number you cannot use?? Then what y's will you get back? The best way to find out might be to graph it to look. Since it is an even function whose ends go up, all the y's will be greater than or equal to the y value of the vertex.

A parabola has x-axis intercepts 6 and -3, and passes through the point (1,10). Find the equation of the parabola.
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

y=-1/2 x^2+3/2 x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of parabola is:

y=ax^2+bx+c

We know that parabola has three poibts

(6,0),(-3,0) and (1,10).

So we put these three points in equation:

a*36+b*6+c=0......(1)

a*9-3b+c=0........(2)

a+b+c=10........(3)

(1)-(2) we have:

27a+9b=0.....(4)

(2)-(3) we have:

8a-4b=-10.....(5)

4(4)+9(5) we got:

180a=-90

a=-1/2

From (4) we got: b=27/18=3/2

From (3) we got: c=10+1/2-3/2=9

So equation is:

y=-1/2 x^2+3/2 x+9

You can see the picture of parabola through three points.
