Answer:

For the yes/no bit:

step 1: no

step 2: no

step 3: yes

step 4: yes

step 5: no

for the final answer bit: a = 2  3/5 (the last option)

Step-by-step explanation:

yes/no bit:

step 1 is wrong because she didn't multiply -\frac{5}{4}a by -2

step 2 is wrong because she subtracted 1/2 instead of adding it

step 3 is correct because 6 - 1/2 = 11/2

step 4 is correct because she correctly multiplied both sides by 4

step 5 is wrong because she added 5 instead of dividing by -5.

for the final answer bit, I've attached an image below with my working out. hope this helps!

Find the value of x<br> x° <br> 66°<br> 117°
pogonyaev

Answer:

x = 51 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind, the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

A flat line also equals 180 degrees.

First, we should find the lower left angle. We know that 117 plus that angle is going to be 180, since it's a flat line.

180 - 117 = 63

Now, we just need to find angle x. (All 3 of our angles should add up to 180, knowing this, we can put it in an equation)

63 + 66 + x = 180

Then, you solve for x:

(63+66) + x = 180

129       + x = 180

-129             -129

               x = 51

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

  a) x = -3

  b) y = (28/27)x -27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) College street has a slope of 0, so is a horizontal line. 2nd Ave is perpendicular, so is a vertical line, described by an equation of the form ...

  x = constant

For 2nd Ave to intersect the point (-3, 1), the constant must match that x-coordinate. The equation is ...

  x = -3

__

b) Since Ace Rd is perpendicular to Davidson St, its slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the slope of Davidson St. The slope of Ace Rd is ...

  m = -1/(-27/28) = 28/27

Using the point-slope equation for a line, we can model Ace Rd as ...

  y -y1 = m(x -x1)

  y -1 = (28/27)(x -27)

  y = (28/27)x -27

Let f(x) = (x − 3)−2. Find all values of c in (1, 7) such that f(7) − f(1) = f '(c)(7 − 1). (Enter your answers as a comma-separ
Sidana [21]

Answer:

This contradicts the Mean Value Theorem since there exists a c on (1, 7) such that f '(c) = f(7) − f(1) (7 − 1) , but f is not continuous at x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=(x-3)^{-2}

When we differentiate this function with respect to x, we get;

f'(x)=-\frac{2}{(x-3)^3}

We want to find all values of c in (1,7) such that f(7) − f(1) = f '(c)(7 − 1)

This implies that;

0.06-0.25=-\frac{2}{(c-3)^3} (6)

-0.19=-\frac{12}{(c-3)^3}

(c-3)^3=\frac{-12}{-0.19}

(c-3)^3=63.15789

c-3=\sqrt[3]{63.15789}

c=3+\sqrt[3]{63.15789}

c=6.98

If this function satisfies the Mean Value Theorem, then f must be continuous on  [1,7] and differentiable on (1,7).

But f is not continuous at x=3, hence this hypothesis of the Mean Value Theorem is contradicted.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
Illusion [34]

Answer:

24 ft cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is denoted by the formula: V=lwh , where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

Looking at the diagram, we can see that the length is 2 ft (so l = 2), the width is 4 ft (so w = 4), and the height is 3 ft (so h = 3). Now, we can just plug in these values to find V, the volume:

V=lwh

V=2*4*3=24

Thus, the answer is 24 ft cubed.

Hope this helps!
