Answer:

x =7 x = -7 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

| 3x + 1 | =22

Absolute value equations have 2 solutions, one positive and one negative

3x+1 = 22 3x+1 = -22

Subtract 1 from each side

3x+1-1 =22-1 3x+1-1 = -22-1

3x= 21 3x = -23

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 21/3 3x/3 = -23/3

x =7 x = -7 2/3

Hi,

$f(x)=\log(x)$ FALSE

$f(x)=\log(x-4)+1$ TRUE

→ $f(x)=\log(x-2)$

$f(x)=\log(x+2)$ FALSE

If the area of the triangular kite is 24 square ft and its base is 4 feet, find the height of the kite.

beks73 [17]

Area of a triangle is A = (1/2) (b) (h). Here we are given A and b and need to find h.

A = 24 ft^2 = (1/2) (4 ft) (height)

24 = 2(height) => height is 12 ft (answer)

Jenna can clean the gutters at her house in four hours. Her older brother, John, can clean the gutters in three hours, if they w

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

1 hour and 42.8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question let's call $t_1$ while it takes Jenna to clean the gutters

Let's call $t_2$ while it takes John to clean the gutters

$t_1 = 4$ h

$t_2 = 3$ h

t = total time

g = job = 1 (clean the gutters)

The speed of each one is:

$V_1 = \frac{1}{4}$ g/ h

$V_2 = \frac{1}{3}$ g/h

$V = V_1 + V_2 = \frac{g}{t} = \frac{1}{t}$

So:

$V = V_1 + V_2 = \frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{3}= \frac{7}{12} g/h$

$t = \frac{12}{7}$ h

Then, both together paint $\frac{7}{12}$ of gutters for each hour.

This means that it takes $\frac{12}{7}$ hours to clean the gutters together

Finally cleaning together takes 1,714 hours or also

1 hour and 42.8 minutes
