Solve for x: 12x+5=3x+35

Mathematics
1 answer:
elena55 [62]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer would be 3.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 12x + 5 = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. 5 + 12x + -3x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 12x + -3x = 9x 5 + 9x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 5 + 9x = 35 + 0 5 + 9x = 35

Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + 9x = 35 + -5 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 35 + -5 = 30 9x = 30

Divide each side by '9'. x = 3.333333333

Simplifying x = 3.333333333

Find the x-intercept(s) and the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola.
Arada [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = x² - 2x - 8

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0 , that is

x² - 2x - 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x- intercepts : x = - 2, x = 4

The x- coordinate of the vertex is mid way between the x- intercepts, that is

x_{vertex} = \frac{-2+4}{2} = \frac{2}{2} = 1

Substitute x = 1 into the equation for corresponding y- coordinate

y = 1² - 2(1) - 8 = 1 - 2 - 8 = - 9

vertex = (1, - 9 )

Can you find a strategy for splitting any number so that you always get the largest product?
Alex

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  split the number into equal pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming "splitting any number" means identifying parts that have the number as their sum, the maximum product of the parts will be found where the parts all have equal values.

We have to assume that the number being split is positive and all of the parts are positive.

<h3>2 parts</h3>

If we divide number n into parts x and (n -x), their product is the quadratic function x(n -x). The graph of this function opens downward and has zeros at x=0 and x=n. The vertex (maximum product) is halfway between the zeros, at x = (0 + n)/2 = n/2.

<h3>3 parts</h3>

Similarly, we can look at how to divide a (positive) number into 3 parts that have the largest product. Let's assume that one part is x. Then the other two parts will have a maximum product when they are equal. Their values will be (n-x)/2, and their product will be ((n -x)/2)^2. Then the product of the three numbers is ...

  p = x(x^2 -2nx +n^2)/4 = (x^3 -2nx^2 +xn^2)/4

This will be maximized where its derivative is zero:

  p' = (1/4)(3x^2 -4nx +n^2) = 0

  (3x -n)(x -n) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor

  x = n/3  or  n

We know that x=n will give a minimum product (0), so the maximum product is obtained when x = n/3.

<h3>more parts</h3>

A similar development can prove by induction that the parts must all be equal.

I know it's late but im having trouble in math.I need an exper to help for BRAINLEST and extra points​
frez [133]

Answer:

B'(- 2, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the translation rule (x, y ) → (x + 3, y - 2 )

This means add 3 to the original x- coordinate and subtract 2 from the original y- coordinate, that is

B(- 5, 4 ) → B'(- 5 + 3, 4 - 2 ) → B'(- 2, 2 )
