Answer:

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in slope-intercept form is set up as y=mx+b. From the information provided, the equation would indicate that the cost of renting the boat would be equal to the price per hour for the number of hours plus the cost of lifejackets and the equation in slope-intercept form that can be used is:

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used

Find all values of $x$ such that $\dfrac{x}{x+4} = -\dfrac{9}{x+3}$. If you find more than one value, then list your solutions i
mixer [17]

We start with

\dfrac{x}{x+4} = -\dfrac{9}{x+3}

Assuming that x \notin \{-4,\ -3\} we can cross multiply the equation:

x(x+3) = -9(x+4) \iff x^2+3x=-9x-36 \iff x^2+12x+36=0

You can recognize the perfect square pattern in the quadratic equation:

x^2+12x+36 = (x)^2 + 2\cdot x \cdot 6 + (6)^2 = (x+6)^2

So, we have

x^2+12x+36=0 \iff (x+6)^2 = 0 \iff x+6=0 \iff x=-6

Which is the only solution, with multiplicity 2.

Need help with math<br> thank you
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  • (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
  • a^(-b) = 1/a^b

Using these to simplify your expression, you get ...

\dfrac{-9x^{-1}y^{-9}}{-15x^{5}y^{-3}}=\dfrac{-9}{-15}x^{-1-5}y^{-9-(-3)}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{5}x^{-6}y^{-6}=\dfrac{3}{5x^6y^6}

Find an explicit formula for the geometric sequence -<br> d(n) =(
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

d(n) = d(1) \times r^{(n - 1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

For a geometric sequence, we have to find the explicit formula for the nth term.

If d(1) is the first term of a geometric sequence with common ratio r, then the sequence is given by :  

d(1), d(1) × r, d(1) × r², d(1) × r³, .......  

Therefore, the nth term of the sequence is given by  

d(n) = d(1) \times r^{(n - 1)} and this id the explicit formula. (Answer)
