Answer:

answer to top question: x = 3/17

answer to bottom question: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute first

5 + 4x - 6 + 8x = -5x + 2

combine like terms

-1 + 12x = -5x + 2

12x = -5x + 3

17x = 3

x = 3/17

5 - 4x + 6 + 8x = -5x + 2

4x + 11 = -5x + 2

9x + 11 = 2

9x = -9

x = -1

Why can’t one of the names be PNM, or MPN for the plane? But MNP can? What’s the difference, and why?

Savatey [412]

The names PNM and MPN are perfectly valid. The order of the letters doesn't matter. In fact, there are 6 ways to name this plane if we just use the 3 letters. If we include "plane Z", then there are 7 total ways to name the plane.

For some reason, your teacher wants P to be the third letter as s/he mentioned MNP and NMP. But again, the order doesn't matter.

The sum of two polynomials is â€"yz2 â€" 3z2 â€" 4y 4. If one of the polynomials is y â€" 4yz2 â€" 3, what is the other polynomi

gtnhenbr [62]

The sum of polynomials involves adding the polynomials

The other polynomial is $y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1$

The sum of the polynomials is given as:

$Sum = y^3 + 3y^2 + 4y - 4$

One of the polynomials is given as:

$P = 4y^2 - 3$

Represent the other polynomial with Q.

So, we have:

$P +Q =Sum$

Substitute the expressions for P and Sum

$4y^2 - 3 +Q =y^3 + 3y^2 + 4y - 4$

Make Q the subject

$Q =y^3 + 3y^2 -4y^2+ 4y - 4 +3$

Evaluate like terms

$Q =y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1$

Hence, the other polynomial is $y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1$

If Peter withdrew $47.27 from the bank and deposited $598, how would his bank account change? (Indicate how much his account wou

fredd [130]

Answer:

Since we do not know the balance we should start with, a general answer:

$b_{new} = b_{old} + \sum_{i} d_{i} - \sum_{j} w_{j} \\$

598 - 47,27 = 550,73, assuming b_old was 0$ for your example

Step-by-step explanation:

b stands for balance (old - before any deposits or withdrawals, new after all done)

d for deposits

w for withdrawals
