okay im not sure but maybe try to find a number that can be = to 18 and that might be y
Y=x^2-5
y=2x-5
y+5=2x
x=(y+5)/2
y=((y+5)/2)^2-5
y=(y^2+10y+25)/4-5
4y=y^2+10y+25-20
0=y^2+6y+5
0=(y+5)(y+1)
y= -5 or -1
y=2x-5 (y= -5 doesn't work for this one so use -1)
-1=2x-5
2x=4
x=2
Using these answers, you can choose answer D with reasonable certainty.
Answer:
175
Step-by-step explanation:
(g*h)(x) is the product of two functions: g(x) = 25 and h(x) = 4 - x.
This product is equal to 100 - 25x.
Substituting -3 for x, we get
(g•h)(-3) = 100 - 25(-3) = 175
Well, we know the last three numbers are:
3 (ones)
6 (tens)
7 (hundreds)
The next set is:
9 (thousands)
3 (ten thousands)
0 (hundred thousands)
And finally:
6 (millions)
5 (ten millions)
6 (hundred millions)
So we know that 5 is in ten millions.
