Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Five to the power of quantity nine minus three x equals one hundred and twenty five.
----------------------
- 5^(9 - 3x) = 125
- 5^(9 - 3x) = 5^3
- 9 - 3x = 3
- 3x = 9 - 3
- 3x = 6
- x = 6/3
- x = 2
OK, the relation. (2,9), (2,8), (-3,7) (-3,6)
Since 2 maps to two values, as does -3, this relation is not a function.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By the way these points, in this slightly different order,
(2,9), (2,8), (-3,7) (-3,6)
are the vertices of a parallelogram.
Answer: “B” is the answer.
Explanation: I did it in my head so I am correct.
start with y= m(x+9)
Use the distributive property:
y= mx+9m
Now you want x to decrease by 6:
so y ' = m(x-6) + 9m
Use distributive property again:
y'= mx - 6m + 9m
y' = (mx+9m) - 6m
y' = y - 6m
So the value of y decreases by 6m.
is simply the difference of both amounts, but firstly let's convert the mixed fractions to improper, and subtract.
![\bf \stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{mixed}{6\frac{7}{16}}\implies \cfrac{6\cdot 16+7}{16}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{103}{16}} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{Jessie}{\cfrac{103}{16}}-\stackrel{Bryce}{\cfrac{9}{2}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{our LCD is 16}}{\cfrac{(1)103-(8)9}{16}}\implies \cfrac{103-72}{16}\implies \cfrac{31}{16}\implies 1\frac{15}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B4%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B4%5Ccdot%202%2B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B6%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B16%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B6%5Ccdot%2016%2B7%7D%7B16%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B103%7D%7B16%7D%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%0A%5Crule%7B34em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Cstackrel%7BJessie%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B103%7D%7B16%7D%7D-%5Cstackrel%7BBryce%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bour%20LCD%20is%2016%7D%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B%281%29103-%288%299%7D%7B16%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B103-72%7D%7B16%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B31%7D%7B16%7D%5Cimplies%201%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B16%7D)
