Answer:

His sister sent 6 more messages than Diego.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Diego's messages to his sister's messages = 3 : 4

Text messages sent by Diego = 18

Text messages sent by his sister = x

Ratio = 18 : x

It is a proportional relationship,

3 : 4 :: 18 : x

Product of extremes = Product of means

3x = 18*4

3x = 72

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{72}{3}\\x=24

Difference = 24 - 18 = 6

Therefore,

His sister sent 6 more messages than Diego.

Negative X +3+ 3X equals 23
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

X = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First you subtract -X from 3x to get 2x +3 =23

then you subtract 3 from both sides to get 2x = 20

then finally, you divide both sides by two to get x = 10

And if you plug 10 back in you get -10 + 3 + 30 = 23

-10 + 3 = -7

-7 + 30=23

23=23

Evaluate |x| + (-2x 2) for x = 3.
Amiraneli [1.4K]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

f(3)=|x|+(-2x^{2})=-15

<h2>Why?</h2>

Evaluating a function means replacing the variable with the given value (3 for this case).

To evaluate the function, we need to remember that the absolute value guarantees a possitive value, for example:

|-3|=3\\|-4|=4

So, we are given the function:

f(x)=|x|+(-2x^{2})

Then, evaluating we have:

f(3)=|3|+(-2*(3)^{2})=3+(-2*9)=3-18=-15

Hence, the answer is:

f(3)=|x|+(-2x^{2})=-15

Have a nice day!
