<h3>
Answer: 40 inches</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
- x = first piece
- 2x = second piece, since its twice as long as the first
- 5x = third piece, since its five time as long as the first
x is some positive real number, and the units of each are in inches.
Add up the smaller pieces and we should get 64 inches back again
x+2x+5x = 64
8x = 64
x = 64/8
x = 8
The first piece is 8 inches long.
2x = 2*8 = 16 is the length of the second piece (in inches)
The third piece is 40 inches because 5x = 5*8 = 40
--------
Summary:
first = 8 inches
second = 16 inches
third = 40 inches
Check: 8+16+40 = 64, which confirms the answer
Answer:
10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
|x+3|=4x-7
So |-(x+3)|=|x+3|
We are going to try out two cases:
-(x+3)=4x-7 and x+3=4x-7
-x-3=4x-7 3=3x-7
-3=5x-7 10=3x
4=5x x=10/3
x=4/5
We are going to test out both because we could something that isn't actually a solution, this is called extraneous.
First thing I'm going to check is 4x-7 for it being positive.
4(4/5)-7=20/5-7=-15/5=-3 so 4/5 will not work because absolute value result can't be negative
4(10/3)-7=40/3-7=19/3 which is positive
checking |x+3| to see if is 19/3 for x=10/3 we see that is so that is the answer
Answer:
the answer is odd
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. y=3(x-1)2 + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
vertex of the parabola is at the point (1,3)
let's verify, if the option B is the correct equation of the parabola.
comparing to standard equationof parabola (standard quadratic equation), we get
to find the vertex we use formula for x- coordinate as 
to find y put x=1 in the Eq1, we get
vertex =(x,y) = (1, 3)
thus vertex of the parabola from the equation y=3(x-1)2 + 3 is (1,3), thus verified
