Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other.
So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this.
2x+2=5x-19
Then you would just go ahead and simplify
2x+2=5x-19
-2x -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19 +19
---------------
21=3x
--- ----
3 3
x=7
This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in
2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16
5x-19
5(7)-19= 16
Same with #11.
x+8=3x-14
-x -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14 +14
--------------
22=2x
--- ----
2 2
x=11
Check.
x+8
11+8= 19
3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19
It's C)
the graph is decrasing, so the variable rate is negative (-2/3)
the rest was quite easy, you just take a look at where the graph cuts the y-axis and determine the rest from the rate of going up or down (increase/decrease)
<span>Whats is the sum (2/5x + 5/8) + (1/5x - 1/4)?
A.3/5x + 1/8
B.3/5x + 3/8
C.3/5x + 5/8
D.3/5x + 7/8
The answer is </span><span>B.) 3/5x + 3/8</span>
<span>Use the definition of continuity.
A function is continuous at a point x = a iff
lim [x → a] f(x) = f(a)
In other words, a function is continuous at a point if its value is equal to its limit at that point.
So, for f(x) to continuous at x = 4 we must have
lim f(x) = f(4)
x → 4

So Jenson has 256 beads + 67 beads = 323 beads - 157 beads for the <span>necklaces = </span> 166 beads divided by 8 beads per bracelet = 20 bracelets with the remainder of 6 beads.
