4x < 2(x+5)<br> What is x

Umnica [9.8K]

The value of x is 5

<h3>What are algebraic expressions?</h3>

Algebraic expressions are expressions made up;

Factors
variables
terms
constants

They also consist of mathematical operations such as addition, multiplication, division, subtraction, parenthesis, brackets, etc

We have the expression as;

7.5x = 5.5x + 10

collect like terms

7.5x - 5.5x = 10

subtract the like terms

2.0x = 10

Make 'x' the subject

x = 10/2. 0

x = 5

Thus, the value of x is 5

I need help With what the answer is

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

OPTION C: y = 2x² + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the function substitute the values of 'x' and 'y' and compare LHS and RHS.

OPTION A: y = -(5x + 1)

When x = -2, y = 9

Therefore, LHS = 9

RHS = -(5(-2) + 1) = -(-10 + 1) = 9

So, LHS = RHS.

Now, we check for the second pair. i.e., (x, y) = (-1, 3)

LHS = 3

RHS = -(-5 + 1) = -(-4) = 4

LHS $\ne$ RHS

So, this option is eliminated.

OPTION B: y = - 4x + 1

Like OPTION A, substitute x = -2 and y = 9.

LHS = 9

RHS = - 4(-2) + 1 = 9

LHS = RHS

Now for the second pair: (-1, 3)

LHS = 3

RHS = -4(-1) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

We see LHS $\ne$ RHS.

So, this option is eliminated as well.

OPTION C: y = 2x² + 1

Substituting the first pair: (-2, 9)

LHS = 9

RHS = 2(4) + 1 = 9

So, LHS = RHS

Now For the second pair: (-1, 3)

We have LHS = 3

RHS = 2(1) + 1 = 3

LHS = RHS.

The third pair: (0, 1)

LHS = 1

RHS = 2(0) + 1 = 1

For the pair: (1, 3)

LHS = 3

RHS = 2(1) + 1 = 3

Again, LHS = RHS

For the pair: (2, 9)

LHS = 9

RHS = 2(4) + 1 = 9

Since, for all the pairs we have LHS and RHS equal, we con conclude that this is the correct representation of our function.

Similarly, substitute OPTION D. The option can be eliminated in the second pair itself.

So, the answer is OPTION C.

Let Upper A equals left bracket Start 2 By 2 Matrix 1st Row 1st Column negative 2 2nd Column 4 2nd Row 1st Column 1 2nd Column 3

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&4\\1&3\end{array}\right]$

$B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&1\\3&7\end{array}\right]$

A. Find AB:

$AB=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&4\\1&3\end{array}\right]\cdot \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&1\\3&7\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2\cdot (-2)+4\cdot 3&-2\cdot 1+4\cdot 7\\1\cdot (-2)+3\cdot 3&1\cdot 1+3\cdot 7\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}16&26\\7&22\end{array}\right]$

B. Find BA:

$BA=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&1\\3&7\end{array}\right]\cdot \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&4\\1&3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2\cdot (-2)+1\cdot 1&-2\cdot 4+1\cdot 3\\3\cdot (-2)+7\cdot 1&3\cdot 4+7\cdot 3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}5&-5\\1&33\end{array}\right]$

C. Answers are not the same

D. Matrices multiplication is not commutastive in general, so

$AB\neq BA$

mrs.jones is thinking of a number thst when rounded to nearest hundred is 400 what is the number explain

kherson [118]

The number could be several different ones. Are you sure that's exactly what the problem says? If not, I'm going to ask you write the entire problem. If not, then whoever made it did not give enough information for there to be an absolute answer. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but I really hope I can with more information.
