Answer:

21 x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

7 ( 3 x -2 )

Using distributive property,

multiply both by 7

7 × 3 x - 7 × 2

21 x - 14

21x - 14
Explanation:
you distribute the 7, and first multiply it by 3x to get 21x. Then you distribute the 7 and multiply it by the -2 to get -14.

Hope this helps!

A triangle has ∠A, ∠B, and ∠C.<br> ∠B is 20° more than ∠A.<br> ∠C is double ∠B.<br> How big is ∠A?

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180

∠B = ∠A + 20

∠C = 2 * ∠B

<A + (∠A + 20) + (2 * ∠B) = 180

<A + (∠A + 20) + (2 * (∠A + 20)) = 180

<A + (∠A + 20) + 2∠A + 40 = 180

4∠A + 60 = 180

4∠A = 120

∠A = 30

Find an expression for the function f(x) whose graph is a line passing through the points (8,-5) and (-9,2). f(x)=

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer: f(x) = - 7x/17 - 29/17

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the function f(x) would be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where

c represents the y intercept.

m represents the slope of the line.

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

The line passes through (8, - 5) and (- 9, 2),

y2 = 2

y1 = - 5

x2 = - 9

x1 = 8

Slope,m = ( 2 - - 5)/(- 9 - 8) = 7/- 17 =

- 7/17

To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 8, y = - 5 and m = - 7/17 into

y = mx + c. It becomes

- 5 = - 7/17 × 8 + c

- 5 = - 56/17 + c

c = - 5 + 56/17

c = - 29/17

The equation becomes

f(x) = - 7x/17 - 29/17

A growing farming conglomerate increases its water usage at a rate of 5% every year. If it used 48,000 megaliters of water this

romanna [79]

Answer:

Future requirement of water = 115,517 mega-liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Current requirement of water (C) = 48,000 mega-liters

Increasing rate per year (g) = 5% = 0.05

Number of year (n) = 18 years

Find:

Future requirement of water = ?

Computation:

$Future\ requirement\ of\ water = C(1+g)^n\\\\Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(1+0.05)^{18}\\\\ Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(1.05)^{18}\\\\ Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 48,000(2.4)\\\\Future\ requirement\ of\ water = 115,517 (Approx)$

Future requirement of water = 115,517 (Approx) mega-liters
