Answer:

The function f(x) = 275-55x represents the amount of money Bradley still owes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount Bradley owes = $275

Amount Bradley pays each week = $55

Let,

x be the number of weeks.

We will subtract the amount paid every weeks from the total amount, where x is the number of weeks. The function will be given by;

f(x) = 275 - 55x

Hence,

The function f(x) = 275-55x represents the amount of money Bradley still owes.

Solve the following equation 1/x-1+1/x+2=3

disa [49]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 3

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 1 + 2/x:

1 + 2/x = 3

Bring 1 + 2/x together using the common denominator x:

(x + 2)/x = 3

Multiply both sides by x:

x + 2 = 3 x

Subtract 3 x + 2 from both sides:

-2 x = -2

Divide both sides by -2:

Answer: x = 1

A triangle has side lengths of 15 10 and 7 is it a right triangle

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

No, it is not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sides of the triangle = 15 10 and 7

To Find:

Whether the triangle is a right triangle = ?

Solution:

According to Pythagorean theorem , In an right triangle the the sum of the squares of the two smaller sides must equal to the square of the larger side

$a^2 +b^2 =c^2\\$

where

a and b are the smaller sides

c is the larger side

Now from the given data, lets assume

a = 10 and b =7 and c =15

Substituting in the above equation we get,

$(10)^2 +(7)^2 = (15)^2$

100 + 49 = 225

149 = 225

$149 \neq 225$

So, the given triangle is not a right triangle.

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation. 2x^2+ 1 = 5x

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$\frac{5+\sqrt{17}}{4}$ , $\frac{5-\sqrt{17}}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

One is asked to find the root of the following equation:

$2x^2+1=5x$

Manipulate the equation such that it conforms to the standard form of a quadratic equation. The standard quadratic equation in the general format is as follows:

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

Change the given equation using inverse operations,

$2x^2+1=5x$

$2x^2-5x+1=0$

The quadratic formula is a method that can be used to find the roots of a quadratic equation. Graphically speaking, the roots of a quadratic equation are where the graph of the quadratic equation intersects the x-axis. The quadratic formula uses the coefficients of the terms in the quadratic equation to find the values at which the graph of the equation intersects the x-axis. The quadratic formula, in the general format, is as follows:

$\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Please note that the terms used in the general equation of the quadratic formula correspond to the coefficients of the terms in the general format of the quadratic equation. Substitute the coefficients of the terms in the given problem into the quadratic formula,

$\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(1)}}{2(2)}$
