Answer:

$25

Step-by-step explanation:

18.75 is 75% of a value. You can easily find the answer by dividing 18.75 and 0.75.

When you have a problem like x*5=30, you divide 30/5 to get 6. Same here, x*0.75=18.75. Divide 18.75/0.75 to get the answer.

Answer:

(h*h)(10) is the same as h(10)*h(10). Let's find the value of h(10) first. To do this, replace every x with 10 like so

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 6-x

h(10) = 6-10

h(10) = -4

So,

h(10)*h(10) = (-4)*(-4)

h(10)*h(10) = 16

The final answer is 16

Answer:

The value of x in terms of b is: $\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}$

The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function: $-2(bx-5)=16$

First we need to find

The value of x in terms of b

We need to find value of x

$-2(bx-5)=16$

Multiply -2 with terms inside the bracket

$-2bx+10=16$

Subtract 10 from both sides

$-2bx+10-10=16-10\\-2bx=6$

Divide both sides by -2b

$\frac{-2bx}{-2b}=\frac{6}{-2b}\\x=-\frac{6}{2b}$

So, The value of x in terms of b is: $\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}$

The value of x when b is 3

We have the equation for the value of x in terms of b:

$\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}$

Put b = 3

$x=-\frac{6}{2(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1$

So, The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

Solve using quadratic formula<br> 6x^2-x=2

Nadya [2.5K]

$6x^2-x=2\implies 6x^2-1x-2=0 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{6}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-1}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}$

$x = \cfrac{ -(-1) \pm \sqrt { (-1)^2 -4(6)(-2)}}{2(6)}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{1+48}}{12} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{49}}{12}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm 7}{12}\implies x = \begin{cases} \frac{8}{12}\to &\frac{2}{3}\\[1em] -\frac{6}{12}\to &-\frac{1}{2} \end{cases}$
