Solve the equation for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

X= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

(\frac{1}{3} )(6x)+(\frac{1}{3} )(-15)=(\frac{1}{2} )(10x)+(\frac{1}{2} )(-4)

(Distribute)

2x+−5=5x+−2

2x−5=5x−2

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

2x−5−5x=5x−2−5x

−3x−5=−2

Step 3: Add 5 to both sides.

−3x−5+5=−2+5

−3x=3

Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.

Which = -1

Hope this helps :)

The graph of a rational function f is shown below.
Mashutka [201]

We have y+2 = 0 and x - 2 = 0. The provided function has an x and y-intercept of -2 and +2, respectively. There is no vertical asymptote. Two is the horizontal asymptote.

<h3>What is a graph?</h3>

A diagram depicting the relationship between two or more variables, each measured along with one of a pair of axes at right angles.

The y-intercept of a function is determined by the intersection of its graph with the y-axis. The value of y on the y-axis at which the considered function crosses it is called the y-intercept.

Assume the following equation: y = f (x)

We have x   =0- 2 and y+2 = 0,The x and y intercept of the given function is -2 and +2.

The vertical asymptote is none. The horizontal asymptote is 2.

Hence,we have y+2 = 0 and x - 2 = 0. The provided function has an x and y-intercept of -2 and +2, respectively. There is no vertical asymptote. Two is the horizontal asymptote.

Assume that y varies directly with x. If y = -5 when
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if y varies directly with x, we can express the relationship such as

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called constant of variation.

Given

y = -5

x = 12

Using the equation

k = y/x = -5/12

Thus, the value of k = -5/12

Finding x when y = 15

y = 15

k = -5/12

substituting y = 15 and k = -5/12 in the equation

y = kx

15 = -5/12 (x)

15×12 = -5x

180 = -5x

divding both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = 180/-5

x = -36

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

A sequence is defined by the formula f(n + 1) = f(n) – 3. If f(4) = 22, what is f(1)?
julsineya [31]

f(n) = f(n+1) +3

f(1) = f(2) +3

f(2) =f(3) +3

f(3) = f(4) +3

So f(1) = f(n) + 3* (n-1)

Put n=4 here so you found

f(1) = f(4) + 3* 3

= 22 +9

=31 ans
