Hi there!

\large\boxed{x = -5}

Find the value of 8 by substituting in -18 for g(x):

-18 = 2x - 8

Add 8 to both sides:

-10 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

-10/2 = 2x/2

x = -5

Substitute g(x) = -18 in g(x) = 2x-8

- 18 = 2x - 8 \\ 2x - 8 =  - 18 \\ 2x =  - 18 + 8 \\ 2x =  - 10 \\ x =  - 5

Thus, x = -5 when g(x) = -18

Some students were asked what kinds of animals they have at home.
Nataly_w [17]

(a) Animals by popularity; Dogs, Cats, Others, Horses.

(b) If 250 students were interviewed, 20 students have other pets.

(c) No, it was incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We arrange the different pets in chronological order, from the highest percent to the lowest percent;

1. Dogs - 67%,

2. Cats - 20%

3. Others - 8%,

4. Horses - 1%.

None is not included in this list.

Step 2; If 250 students were interviewed, 8% of those have other pets. So we need to calculate how much 8% of 250 is.

8% of 250 = \frac{8}{100} × 250 = 0.08 × 250 = 20.

So 20 students had other pets.

Step 3; 20% of the interviewed students had cats. If 75 students had cats, we need to equate 20% to the 75 and find out how many students were actually interviewed.

20% × x = 75, 0.2 × x = 75,

x = \frac{75}{0.2} = 375.

So if 375 students were interviewed, 75 students would have cats. So the estimate of 250 students being interviewed is incorrect.

. A special safe lets you choose from 9 symbols for a 3-symbol-long pass code. You may enter a symbol any number of times. How m
Lady_Fox [76]

The question is an illustration of combination and there are 729 potential pass codes available

<h3>How to determine the number of potential pass codes?</h3>

The given parameters are

Symbols available = 9

Length of pass code = 3

From the question, we understand that a symbol may be entered any number of times.

This means that each of the 9 available symbols can be used three times

So, the number of potential pass codes is

Passcodes = 9 * 9 * 9

Evaluate the product

Passcodes = 729

Hence, there are 729 potential pass codes available
