Ken normally leaves work at 5:00 pm, but he is leaving 20 minutes late today. He decides to make up time by taking the toll road

instead of side streets. He can travel three times faster by taking the toll road. Create an equation in terms of x to represent the number of minutes after 5:00 pm he arrives home from work if he leaves late. Let x represent the number of minutes his normal commute takes when he leaves on time.
y equals one third times x plus twenty
y = 3x + 20
y equals one third times x minus twenty
y = 3x − 20

Answer:

y =1/3x+20

Step-by-step explanation:

He starts 20 minutes late so we need to add 20 minutes to the time

He travels 3 times faster so he takes 1/3 of the normal time x

y =1/3x+20

Elimination<br> 4x-7y=5<br> 9x-7y=-15
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To make this easier to explain and easier to solve, we're going to first multiply the second equation of 9x-7y=-15 by -1 to make the y coefficient positive.

This results in -9x+7y=15.

When we line up the two equations on top of each other now, we'll see that both the first and second equations have opposite y coefficients, which is vital for elimination.

The next step is to add the second equation to the first one. Teachers may tell you to subtract, but I find it easier to add if you make the two y coefficients of negative value to each other.

    4x-7y=5

+ -9x+7y=15

___________

   -5x+0y=20, or just -5x=20, because you have successfully eliminated the y         variable.

From there, you're going to solve like a normal equation (divide both sides by -5) toget you x=-4.

Determine the domain of the function, and choose the correct interval and inequality notations,
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>See below</u>

Explanation:

Determining the <em>domain</em> of the function P(x) = 2x + 8 is very trivial and does not require the uses of separate intervals.

The domain of a function is the set of input values (x) for which the function is defined. Thus, the domain of P(x) = 2x + 8 is all the real number, which in interval notaion is:

  • (- ∞, ∞)

The symbol ∞ is used to indicate that there is not limit for the value of x: it can goe from any negative number to any positive number).

For didactic purposes let's determine the domain of the function

P(x) = 2/(x+8).

In this case, the function is not defined when the denominator equals 0.

Then, the domain excludes the values for which x + 8 = 0.

  • x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8.

Then, the solution is all the real numbers different to - 8.

In <em>interval notation</em> it is:

  • (- ∞, -8) ∪ (-8, ∞)

In form of <em>inequaliy</em> that is:

  • x < - 8 ∪ x > - 8

That means, all the real numbers less than - 8 and all the real numbers greater than 8.
