Answer:

Estimation helps you check your answer by seeing if the estimate is close to the result you got. You can also estimate first to know approximately what result you should expect to get.

It is helpful because when you are finished estimating (for example: multpliying, diving, adding or subtracting) it's like checking your work that's why it can be helpful to estimate before finding the actual product.Hope i helped!

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

so how i would do it is

-4x + (-3) = -x +3 you would subtract 3 from the right side and add/ subtract it onto the left

then you have

-4x + (-6) = -x next you take the -4x and you would add it to the right side to get

-6 = 3x

lastly you divide -6 / 3 to get

x = -2

would love if i could have brainlist

WHO EVER ANSWERS FIRST WILL GET A BRAINLY!!!!!!PLS BE QUICK

OLEGan [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

(2$+1.5&)+0.9$X=20$

3.5$+0.9$X=20$

0.9$x=20$-3.5$

x=16.5$/.9$

x=18.333

so he can travel 18.333miles.

first we need to add the two separated cause of 1.5 Dollar in $2 tip which give us 3.5 dollar that is to be subtracted from the $20 you have. then the money that is left in your pocket is 16.5 dollar s this will be deducted 0.9 for every mile so dividing 16.5 by 0.9 gives 18.333.

Solve the linear programming problem. Minimize and maximize Upper P equals negative 20 x plus 30 y Subject to 2 x plus 3 y great

Alika [10]

Answer:

Maximum = 540 at (6,14)

Minimum = 300 at (0,10) or (12,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given linear programming problem is

Minimize and maximize: P = 20x + 30y

Subject to constraint,

$2x+3y\ge 30$ .... (1)

$2x+y\le 26$ .... (2)

$-2x+3y\le 30$ .... (3)

$x,y\geq 0$

The related equation of given inequalities are

$2x+3y=30$

$2x+y=26$

$-2x+3y=30$

Table of values are:

For inequality (1).

x y

0 10

15 0

For inequality (2).

x y

0 26

13 0

For inequality (3).

x y

0 10

15 0

Pot these ordered pairs on a coordinate plane and connect them draw the corresponding related line.

Check each inequality by (0,0).

$2(0)+3(0)\ge 30\Rightarrow 0\ge 30$ False

$2(0)+(0)\le 26\Rightarrow 0\le 26$ True

$-2(0)+3(0)\le 30\Rightarrow 0\le 30$ True

It means (0,0) is included in the shaded region of inequality (2) and (3), and (0,0) is not included in the shaded region of inequality (1).

From the below graph it is clear that the vertices of feasible region are (0,10), (6,14) and (12,2).

Calculate the values of objective function on vertices of feasible region.

Point P = 20x + 30y

(0,10) P = 20(0) + 30(10) = 300

(6,14) P = 20(6) + 30(14) = 540

(12,2) P = 20(12) + 30(2) = 300

It means objective function is maximum at (6,14) and minimum at (0,10) or (12,2).

What is the equation of the graph below?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$y=cos(x+\pi )$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can see that y = -1 when x = 0.

So to check whether which of the given options is the equation of the given graph, we will set our calculator to the radian mode and then plug the value of x as 0.

1. y = cos(x + pi/2) = cos(0 + pi/2) = 0

2. y = cos(x+2pi) = cos(0+2pi) = 1

3. y = cos(x+pi/3) = cos(0+pi/3) = 1/2 = 0.5

4. y = cos(x+pi) = cos(0+pi) = -1

Therefore, the equation of this graph is y = cos(x+pi) = cos(0+pi) = -1.

A sound wave enters a new medium where sound travles faster. How does this affect the frequency and wavelength of the sound?

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The frequency doesn't change. If the wavespeed increases, then the wavelength must also increase ... It's just the distance the wave travels during each complete wiggle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave which requires a material medium for transmission. The transmission of such waves occurs as a result of vibration of particles in the material medium. The faster the vibration of the particles the higher the speed of the sound waves.

When a sound enters a new medium where the sound travels faster, it means the vibration of particles is high, and the wavelength of the waves increases which means the speed of the wave has increased. The frequency on the other hand will remain constant.
