Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so, we know they washed 34.

x-5=Trucks washed [19.5-5=(14.5)]

x=cars washed (19.5)

x+x-5=34

2x-5=34

+5   +5

2x=39

divide 2 both sides

x=19.5

To check work: 19.5+14.5=34!

Hope this helps :)

Hi!

When you add a negative number, you really just subtract it. So let's solve this.

Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

\frac{434}{9} - \frac{351}{9}

Solve

434 - 351 = 83

\frac{83}{9}

The sign of this fraction is positive

Hope this helps! :)

Determine if the graph is symmetric about the x-axis, the y-axis, or the origin.<br> r = 9 sin 7θ
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The given function symmetric about the y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

r=9\sin 7\theta                .... (1)

1. Symmetry about the x-axis: If the point (r, θ ) lies on the graph, then the point  (r,-θ ) or (-r, π - θ ) also lies on the graph.

2. Symmetry about the y-axis: If the point (r, θ ) lies on the graph, then the point (r,π - θ ) or (-r, -θ ) also lies on the graph.

3. Symmetry about the origin: If the point (r, θ ) lies on the graph, then the point (-r, θ ) or (r, π + θ ) also lies on the graph.

Put (r, -θ ) in the given function.

r=9\sin 7(-\theta)=-9\sin 7\theta=-r\neq r

Therefore it is not symmetric about x-axis.

Put (-r, -θ ) in the given function.

-r=9\sin 7(-\theta)=-9\sin 7\theta=-r

Therefore it is symmetric about y-axis.

Put (-r,θ ) in the given function.

-r=9\sin 7(\theta)=r\neq -r

Therefore it is not symmetric about the origin.
