F(x)= 16
G(x)= -10
2(3)^2-2 -3(3)-1
2(9)-2 -9-1
18-2 -10
16
X>-5
Just divide both sides by -2
Answer:
The value of x is 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>In similar figures, corresponding sides have the same ratio</em>
In the given figure
∵ There are 2 similar polygons
∴ We must write their names with corresponding angles
∵ ∠A = ∠L, ∠B = ∠M, ∠C = ∠N, ∠D = ∠P
∴ Their names are ABCD and LMNP
→ By using the rule above
∴ Their corresponding sides have the same ratio
∴ =
∵ AB = 14 and LM = x + 9
∵ BC = 10 and MN = x + 6
→ Substitute them in the ratio up
∴ =
→ By using the cross multiplication
∵ 14 × (x + 6) = 10 × (x + 9)
∴ 14(x) + 14(6) = 10(x) + 10(9)
∴ 14x + 84 = 10x + 90
→ Subtract 10x from both sides
∵ 14x - 10x + 84 = 10x - 10x + 90
∴ 4x + 84 = 90
→ Subtract both sides by 84
∵ 4x + 84 - 84 = 90 - 84
∴ 4x = 6
→ Divide both sides by 4 to find x
∴ x = 1.5
∴ The value of x is 1.5
There are 7 cards. The number of possible correct picks is 2 (if you pick an 'S') plus 1 (if you pick the 'U') = 3 ways to succeed. So the probability of success is 3/7 ... about 43% .
Answer:
-3 < x < 3
x is some number between -3 and 3; x cannot equal -3, x cannot equal 3
graph shown below
==============================================
Work Shown:
5|x| + 3 < 18
5|x| + 3 - 3 < 18-3 ... see note 1
5|x| < 15
(5|x|)/5 < 15/5 .... note 2
|x| < 3
-3 < x < 3 .... note 3
graph shown below
-----------
note 1: Subtract 3 fom both sides to undo the "+3"
note 2: Divide both sides by 5 to undo the multiplication
note 3: If |x| < k, for some positive number k, then -k < x < k
