Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
2(-5r + 2) = 84
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>r</u></em>
- Divide 2 on both sides: -5r + 2 = 42
- Subtract 2 on both sides: -5r = 40
- Divide -5 on both sides: r = -8
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in r into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>r</em>: 2(-5(-8) + 2) = 84
- Multiply: 2(40 + 2) = 84
- Add: 2(42) = 84
- Multiply: 84 = 84
Here we see that 84 does indeed equal 84.
∴ r = -8 is a solution of the equation.
<u>Step 4: Define equation</u>
264 = -8(-8 + 5x)
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Divide both sides by -8: -33 = -8 + 5x
- Add 8 to both sides: -25 = 5x
- Divide 5 on both sides: -5 = x
- Rewrite: x = -5
<u>Step 6: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in<em> x</em>: 264 = -8(-8 + 5(-5))
- Multiply: 264 = -8(-8 - 25)
- Subtract: 264 = -8(-33)
- Multiply: 264 = 264
Here we see that 264 does indeed equal 264.
∴ x = -5 is a solution of the equation.
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can see that 
.
Thus, for the question, we can just plug -1 in:
Saying undefined (or unbounded) will be correct.
However, note that as x approaches 2, the values of y decrease in order to get to -1. In other words, 
will always be greater or equal to -1 (you can also see this from the graph). This means that as x approaches 2, f(x) will approach -.99 then -.999 then -.9999 until it reaches -1 and then go back up. What is important is that because of this, we can determine that:
This is because for the denominator, the +1 will always be greater than the f(x). This makes this increase towards positive infinity. Note that limits want the values of the function as it approaches it, not at it.
Answer:
$225
Step-by-step explanation:
The area to be fenced in is 20 ft by 45 ft, or 900 ft^2. But "25 per foot based on the area" is illogical. Please ensure that you have copied this problem down accurately, and be sure to provide units of measurement: did you mean $25 per square foot, or per foot, or what?
The fencing cost is usually dependent on the unit cost and the length of the yard perimeter. The perimeter is P = 2L + 2W, which here is P = 2(45 ft) + 2(20 ft), or 130 ft. If the fencing is 25 cents per foot, $130 ft of fencing would come to $32.50.
Answer:4^2 or (-4)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't really know how to explain it. I can try if you want
-15 both sides and then it’s will be
5x = 13 then u divide both sides over 5 and the answer will be ( X=2.6 )
