Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. distribute 9 in 9(x+1)
9x + 9 = 25 + x
2. subtract x from the right side to isolate x onto one side
8x + 9 = 25
3. subtract 9 from the left side
8x = 16
4. divide both sides by 8 to get x alone
x = 2
Answer:
$172.80
Step-by-step explanation:
$160.00 x 1.08=$172.80
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
so next year her money would be 6% more so:
5000 + (0.6 * 5000) = (1.06) * 5000
So each year she'll have : (1.06)*(last year's money)
So we can say after n years she will have :
((1.06)^n) * 5000
So:
5000((1.06)^n)=50000
n is 39.5
So around 40
Answer:
f(1/4) = 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x is a function. The name of the function is simply the letter f. It tells you a rule. f(x) is the same as y.
It is the same as having
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
For each value of x you are given, you can calculate a corresponding value of y. Instead of calling y, y, we call y "f(x)" which is a way of showing that this relation is a function.
If you were given
y = 4x^2 - 2/3 x and were asked to find the value of y when x = 1/4, what would you do?
You would substitute 1/4 for x in the expression 4x^2 - 2/3 x, and you'd find the value of y.
Being asked to find f(1/4) for function f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x means exactly the same. It means what is the value of the function when x = 1/4? What is the y value corresponding to an x value of 1/4?
Let's calculate it:
f(x) = 4x^2 - 2/3 x
To show we are evaluating the function at an x value of 1/4, we use the notation f(1/4). f(1/4) means find the value of y for function f when x = 1/4. We replace x with 1/4 and do the math.
f(1/4) = 4(1/4)^2 - (2/3)(1/4)
f(1/4) = 4(1/16) - 2/12
f(1/4) = 4/16 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/4 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 3/12 - 2/12
f(1/4) = 1/12
50.24 because you have to remember Pi times radius squared is area of a circle
