x^5 is your answer because you add exponents when they are not in separate paretheses.
To answer the problem, let x be the number of apples Maria picked. By this representation, the number of apples Andre picked is 3x and that Jane picked 6x apples. The sum of all apples picked is 840. The equation that represent the situation is,
x + 3x + 6x = 840 ; x = 84
Andre picked 3x apples. Thus, Andre picked 252 apples.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
KL + KJ = 17
2 + 3x + 5x - 1 = 17 add like terms
8x + 1 = 17 subtract 1 from both sides
8x = 16 divide both sides by 8
x = 2
KL = 5x - 1 replace x with 2
5*2 - 1 = 9
Answer:
$450,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>100% - 38% = 62% of the previous house value is the current house value after the 38% decrease.</h3><h3>We'll first convert 62% to a decimal by dividing by 100.</h3>
62% = 62 / 100 = 0.62
<h2>0.62x = 279,000</h2><h3>Multiply by (100/62) on each side.</h3><h2>x = 450,000</h2><h2>The house value when it was purchased was $450,000.</h2>
Since the change is to x, it will be a horizontal transformation.
When x is multiplied by a factor between 0 and 1, it stretches the function horizontally.
In this case, it stretches the function by a factor of 2 horizontally.
