Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They sold 9 book marks for every 2 books (9:2 ratio).

72/9 = 2/x

Cross multiply. 72 * x = 72x

9 * 2 = 18

72 divided by 18 = 40

Evaluate the function at each specified value of the independent variable and simplify. (if an answer is undefined, enter undefi

tekilochka [14]

For this case we have the following function:

$h (t) = t ^ 2 - 8t$

What we should do is evaluate the function for the different values of the independent variable.

We have then:

For x = 8:

$h (8) = (8) ^ 2 - 8 (8)$

$h (8) = 64 - 64$

$h (8) = 0$

For x = 1.8:

$h (1.8) = (1.8) ^ 2 - 8 (1.8)$

$h (1.8) = 3.24 - 14.4$

$h (1.8) = -11.16$

For x = x + 8:

$h (x + 8) = (x + 8) ^ 2 - 8 (x + 8)$

$h (x + 8) = x ^ 2 + 16x + 64-8x-64$

$h (x + 8) = x ^ 2 + 18x$

Answer:

The results of evaluating the function are:

$h (8) = 0$

$h (1.8) = -11.16$

$h (x + 8) = x ^ 2 + 18x$

5(x-3)+7(2-x)-4(2x+7)-3x+2=11-8(x-7)+4x-(6-5x)+8-2x

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5(x + -3) + 7(2 + -1x) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

5(-3 + x) + 7(2 + -1x) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

(-3 * 5 + x * 5) + 7(2 + -1x) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

(-15 + 5x) + 7(2 + -1x) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-15 + 5x + (2 * 7 + -1x * 7) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-15 + 5x + (14 + -7x) + -4(2x + 7) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-15 + 5x + 14 + -7x + -4(7 + 2x) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-15 + 5x + 14 + -7x + (7 * -4 + 2x * -4) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-15 + 5x + 14 + -7x + (-28 + -8x) + -3x + 2 = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-15 + 14 + -28 + 2 + 5x + -7x + -8x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: -15 + 14 = -1

-1 + -28 + 2 + 5x + -7x + -8x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: -1 + -28 = -29

-29 + 2 + 5x + -7x + -8x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: -29 + 2 = -27

-27 + 5x + -7x + -8x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x

-27 + -2x + -8x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: -2x + -8x = -10x

-27 + -10x + -3x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Combine like terms: -10x + -3x = -13x

-27 + -13x = 11 + -8(x + -7) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-27 + -13x = 11 + -8(-7 + x) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-27 + -13x = 11 + (-7 * -8 + x * -8) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-27 + -13x = 11 + (56 + -8x) + 4x + -1(6 + -5x) + 8 + -2x

-27 + -13x = 11 + 56 + -8x + 4x + (6 * -1 + -5x * -1) + 8 + -2x

-27 + -13x = 11 + 56 + -8x + 4x + (-6 + 5x) + 8 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-27 + -13x = 11 + 56 + -6 + 8 + -8x + 4x + 5x + -2x

Combine like terms: 11 + 56 = 67

-27 + -13x = 67 + -6 + 8 + -8x + 4x + 5x + -2x

Combine like terms: 67 + -6 = 61

-27 + -13x = 61 + 8 + -8x + 4x + 5x + -2x

Combine like terms: 61 + 8 = 69

-27 + -13x = 69 + -8x + 4x + 5x + -2x

Combine like terms: -8x + 4x = -4x

-27 + -13x = 69 + -4x + 5x + -2x

Combine like terms: -4x + 5x = 1x

-27 + -13x = 69 + 1x + -2x

Combine like terms: 1x + -2x = -1x

-27 + -13x = 69 + -1x

Solving

-27 + -13x = 69 + -1x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'x' to each side of the equation.

-27 + -13x + x = 69 + -1x + x

Combine like terms: -13x + x = -12x

-27 + -12x = 69 + -1x + x

Combine like terms: -1x + x = 0

-27 + -12x = 69 + 0

-27 + -12x = 69

Add '27' to each side of the equation.

-27 + 27 + -12x = 69 + 27

Combine like terms: -27 + 27 = 0

0 + -12x = 69 + 27

-12x = 69 + 27

Combine like terms: 69 + 27 = 96

-12x = 96

Divide each side by '-12'.

x = -8

Simplifying

x = -8

The Capulet and Montague families love writing. Last year, each Capulet wrote 4 essays, each Montague wrote 6 essays, and both f

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Infinite solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, number of Capulet family = x and number of Montague family = y.

Since, last year, each Capulet wrote 4 essays and each Montague wrote 6 essays.

Moreover, total essays wrote last year are 100.

So, we get, 4x + 6y = 100.

Again, this year, each Capulet wrote 8 essays and each Montague wrote 12 essays.

Moreover, total essays wrote this year are 200.

So, we get, 8x + 12y = 200.

Thus, the system of equations is given by,

4x + 6y = 100.

8x + 12y = 200.

Dividing first equation by 2 and second equation by 4, we get the equation,

2x + 3y = 50.

Since, there is only one equation and two variables i.e. x and y.

There can be infinite number of possibilities for the values of x and y.
