Answer : 96
x – y = 16 --------> equation 1
1/8 x + 1/2 y = 52
x is the higher grade and y is the lower grade
We solve the first equation for y
x - y = 16
-y = 16 -x ( divide each term by -1)
y = -16 + x
Now substitute y in second equation
1/8 x + 1/2 ( -16 + x ) = 52
1/8x - 8 + 1/2 x = 52
1/8x + 1/2x - 8 = 52
Take common denominator to combine fractions
1/8x + 4/8x -8 = 52
5/8x - 8 = 52
Add 8 on both sides
5/8x = 60
Multiply both sides by 8/5
x = 96
We know x is the higher grade
96 is the higher grade of Jose’s two tests.
Answer:
x^3 -9x^2 +14x +24
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)(x^2 - 5x - 6)
Multiply the x by everything in the second term
x * (x^2 - 5x - 6)
x^3 -5x^2 -6x
Multiply the -4 by everything in the second term
-4 * (x^2 - 5x - 6)
-4x^2 +20x +24
Add everything together
I like to line them up vertically
x^3 -5x^2 -6x
-4x^2 +20x +24
-------------------------------
x^3 -9x^2 +14x +24

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
This question is asking you to insert two equations, f(x) and g(x), into the equation g(x) - f(x). This will lead to the equation below.

Now we can solve for the equation.

Answer: 4
The given line has a slope of -1/4 as this is the number in front of the x. The general equation y = mx+b has m as the slope. So m = -1/4 is given
Flip the sign to get -1/4 turn into +1/4 or just 1/4
Then flip the fraction (aka reciprocal) to go from 1/4 to 4/1 and that simplifies to 4.
Multiplying the original slope (-1/4) and the perpendicular slope (4) will result in -1.
