Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-x/3 = 2

Multiply each side by -3 to isolate x

-x/3  * -3= 2*-3

x = -6

Answer:

x= -6

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to issolate x.

Start by getting rid of that divison by inversing it. The inverse of division is multiplication, so we multiply 2 by 3 to get 6.

Now -x= 6

in order for it to be truely isolated, we must inverse the negative sign.

its x= -6

The point-slope form of the equation for a line can be written as

... y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . . for a line with slope m through point (h, k)

Your function gives

... f'(h) = m

... f(h) = k

a) The tangent line is then

... y = 5(x -2) +3

b) The normal line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of that of the tangent line.

... y = (-1/5)(x -2) +3

_____

You asked for "an equation." That's what is provided above. Each can be rearranged to whatever form you like.

In standard form, the tangent line's equation is 5x -y = 7. The normal line's equation is x +5y = 17.

Solve the absolute value inequality.<br><br> |2x - 3| &gt; 7
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Hi!

<u><em>NOTE: When solving absolute value inequalities, > or ≥ means OR, and < and ≤ means AND.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

|2x - 3| > 7

Since the absolute value is isolated, we can now solve.

First, remove absolute value signs, then solve for x.

2x - 3 > 7

2x > 10

x > 5

Now, we have to solve again, but this time we flip the inequality sign and switch positive 7 to a negative 7, like so:

2x - 3 < -7

2x < -4

x < -2

Now, as stated above, since it's a greater than symbol it means OR.

<u><em>x > 5 OR x < -2</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Which two values of x are roots of the polynomial below?
Julli [10]

Answer:

B. and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set the polynomial equal to zero:

x² + 5x + 7 = 0

2. Plug the given values of a, b, and c into the quadratic formula:

x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{5^{2}-4(1)(7) } }{2(1)}

3. Solve the square root:

x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{25-4(1)(7)} }{2(1)}

x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{25-28} }{2(1)}

x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{-3} }{2(1)}

4. Simplify the rest:

x=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{-3} }{2}

5. Separate the solutions:

x=\frac{-5+\sqrt{-3} }{2}  , x=\frac{-5-\sqrt{-3} }{2}

Thus, options B and C are the answers.

hope this helps!

Naysha listens to the radio for five-sixths of an hour each day. which expressions represent the time naysha spends listening to
Yakvenalex [24]

The time Natasha listens to the radio can be represented as 7 times five sixths, 35/6 or 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6.

<h3>How to find out the time Natasha listens to the radio in one week?</h3>
  • Time per day: 5/6 of an hour
  • Time per week: 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 = 35/6

or 5/6 x 7 = 35/6

<h3>How to represent this?</h3>

There are three options:

  • 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6
  • 35/6
  • 5/6 x 7
