Answer:

k = - 50

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8 k - 20 = - 60

Add 20 to each side

0.8 k - 20 + 20 = - 60 + 20

0.8 k = - 40

divide each side by 0.8

0.8 k / 0.8 = -40 / 0.8

k = - 50

Resolve 3x-1÷(x+1)^2 into partial fraction<br>​
garri49 [273]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3/(x +1) -4/(x +1)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The partial fraction expansion will be of the form ...

  A/(x+1)^2 +B/(x+1)

We can find the values of A and B by writing the sum of these terms:

  = (A +B(x +1))/(x +1)^2

Then we require ...

  B = 3

  A +B = -1   ⇒   A = -4

So, the desired expansion is ...

  3/(x +1) -4/(x +1)^2

Going against the current, a boat takes 6 hours to make a 120-mile trip. When the boat travels with the current on the return tr
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

  22 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Against the current, the boat's rate of travel is ...

  (120 mi)/(6 h) = 20 mi/h

With the current, the boat's rate of travel is ...

  (120 mi)/(5 h) = 24 mi/h

___

The sum of boat speed (b) and current speed (c) is 24 mph. The difference is 20 mph. This lets us write the equations ...

  b + c = 24

  b - c = 20

Adding these two equations together, we get ...

  2b + 0c = 44

  b = 22 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The rate of the boat in still water is 22 miles per hour.

Given that (-6,2) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function f(1/4x).
Dafna1 [17]
Answer: (-24,2)

=======================================

Work Shown:

The y coordinate stays the same. Only the x coordinate will change.

(1/4)*x = -6
x = -6*4
x = -24 is the new x coordinate
Plugging x = -24 into f((1/4)x) leads to f(-6) = 2
