24 because they multiplied 5 by 12 so you have to do the same thing to the 2 and 2x12 is 24.

<h2>Range of x </h2><h3>-\frac{1}{5} and x>6</h3><h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Given AB = 4x + 5, BC = 3x - 2 and AC 9x -5

The sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of third side.

Case I

AB + BC > AC

⇔4x +5 +3x -2 > 9x -5

⇔7x + 3 >9x - 5

⇔ 7x -9x > -5 -3

⇔-2x > -8

⇔x <4

Case II

if AB+AC > BC

4x +5 +9x -5> 3x -2

⇔13x >3x -2

⇔ 13x -3x> -2

⇔10x > -2

⇔x >-\frac{1}{5}

Case III

AC+BC > AB

⇔9x - 5 +3x - 2 > 4x +5

⇔6x -7 > 4x +5

⇔6x -4x >5+7

⇔2x > 12

⇔x > 6

Evaluate the given expression. Subscript 5 Baseline P Subscript 2 a. 40 c. 25 b. 32 d. 20
Leto [7]

Answer:

d. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question implies 5 permutation 2, i.e _{5}P_{2}.

But,

_{n}P_{r} = \frac{n!}{(n - r)!}

So that for _{5}P_{2}, n = 5 and r = 2.

_{5}P_{2} = \frac{5!}{(5 - 2)!}

     = \frac{5!}{3!}

    = \frac{5*4*3*2!}{3*2!}

Cancel out 3 and 2 with respect to the numerator and denominator.

_{5}P_{2} = 5 * 4

     = 20

Therefore,

_{5}P_{2} = 20

So that the correct option is D.

the time it takes to fly from los angeles to new york varies inversely as the speed of the plane. if the trip takes 6 hours at 9
natima [27]
Inverse variation means y=k/x  (direct variation is y=kx) so we can use the info given to find the constant k

y=k/x

6=k/900

k=6(900)

k=5400 so the equation is:

y=5400/x  or more accurately for this problem

t(v)=5400/v  then:

t(800)=5400/800

t(800)=6.75 hours

Need help on this please this one is hard for me
pshichka [43]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = -7x

Step-by-step explanation:

The line goes through the origin, so the y-intercept is b=0.

The line goes through the point (1, -7), so has a "rise" of -7 for a "run" of 1. The slope is ...

  m = rise/run = -7/1 = -7

Then the slope-intercept form equation is ...

  y = mx + b

  y = -7x
