Answer:

113

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the first equation, 4x - 5 = 96, we get x = 25.25:

4x - 5 = 96

add 5 to both sides

4x = 101

divide both sides by 4

x = 25.25

Then we plug that into 4x + 12.

We already know 4x = 101, so 101 + 12 = 113

Answer:

113

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5=96, 4x = 101, x= 25.25

25.25 * 4 = 101

101 + 12 = 103

What is the distance rounded to the nearest tenth between the points (2 -2) and (6 3)

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The distance between the points is approximately 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given coordinates of the points are;

(2, -2), and (6, 3)

The distance between two points, 'A', and 'B', on the coordinate plane given their coordinates, (x₁, y₁), and (x₂, y₂) can be found using following formula;

$l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}$

Substituting the known 'x', and 'y', values for the coordinates of the points, we have;

$l_{(2, \, -2), \ (6, \, 3) } = \sqrt{\left (3-(-2) \right )^{2}+\left (6-2 \right )^{2}} = \sqrt{5^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{41}$

Therefore, the distance between the points, (2, -2), and (6, 3) = √(41) ≈ 6.4.

3(x - 5) – 3 = 5(x - 2) + 2x

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)−3=5(x−2)+2x

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−3=(5)(x)+(5)(−2)+2x(Distribute)

3x+−15+−3=5x+−10+2x

(3x)+(−15+−3)=(5x+2x)+(−10)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−18=7x+−10

3x−18=7x−10

Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.

3x−18−7x=7x−10−7x

−4x−18=−10

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−4x−18+18=−10+18

−4x=8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

−4

x=−2

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

Elza [17]

Answer:

(a) The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x)

(b) f(x) has a greater y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{cc}x & {f(x)} & -1&-9&0&-1&1&7 \ \end{array}$

$g(x) = 3x - 2$

Solving (a): Compare the slopes

The slope (m) of f(x) is calculated as;

$m = \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}$

This gives:

$m = \frac{f(0) - f(1)}{0 - 1}$

$m = \frac{f(0) - f(1)}{- 1}$

Substitute values for f(0) and f(1)

$m = \frac{-1 - 7}{- 1}$

$m = \frac{-8}{- 1}$

$m = 8$

The slope of g(x) can be gotten using the following comparison

$g(x) = mx + b$

$m \to slope$

So:

$g(x) = 3x -2$

$m = 3$

$m_{f(x)} > m_{g(x)}$

Solving (b): Compare the y intercept

y intercept is when $x = 0$

From the table of f(x)

$f(0) = -1$

From the equation of g(x)

$g(x) = 3x -2$

$g(0) = 3*0-2$

$g(0) =-2$

Use your knowledge on the triangle proportionality theorem to find the missing side length indicated. Be sure to explain the pro

ikadub [295]

Answer:

? = 4.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Let x be the question mark. You get the proportionality by using the dimensions of the little triangle to the dimensions of the large triangle.

Equation

14/(14+ 4) = 15/(x + 15) Combine like terms on the left

14/18 = 15/(x + 15) Cross multiply

14*(x + 15) = 18 * 15 Simplify the right

14(x + 15) = 270 Divide by 14

x + 15 = 270 / 14

x + 15 = 19.29 Subtract 15 from both sides

x = 19.29 - 15

x = 4.29

Suppose that y varies directly with x and y=5 when x=6. What is y when x=5? Be sure to simplify your answer.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

y = $\frac{25}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 5 when x = 6

k = $\frac{y}{x}$ = $\frac{5}{6}$

y = $\frac{5}{6}$ x ← equation of variation

When x = 5, then

y = $\frac{5}{6}$ × 5 = $\frac{25}{6}$
