Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x - 2(x - 2) = - 4 + 5x - 13 ← distribute left side and simplify

4x - 2x + 4 = 5x - 17

2x + 4 = 5x - 17 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

- 3x + 4 = - 17 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 3x = - 21 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 7

umka21 [38]

<span>Initial number of the people that belong to a certain social website is 412. It is growing at a rate of 5% every month. It means that every month the number of people is growing 1.05 times. We can calculate how many of them will there be in 9 months: 412 * 1.05^9 = 412 * 1.55 = 638.6. When we round to the nearest whole number: there will be 369 members.</span>

1. The most massive planet in the solar system, Jupiter, has a mass of about 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Estimate

UNO [17]

Answer:

D. $2*10^{27} kg$

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of Jupiter is given as 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg

Estimating this to the nearest whole number would be = 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg (rounding up the the "1,898")

To express this in scientific notation form, simply count how many zeros we have to the nearest whole number, 2.

We have 27 zeros there.

Therefore, we would multiply the whole number, 2, by 10 raise to the power of 27.

An estimate of the mass of Jupiter = $2*10^{27} kg$

The vertex of this parabola is at (2, -4). When the y-value is -1, the x-value is 3. What is the coefficient of the squared term

rjkz [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (2, - 4) , thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 4

To find a substitute (3, - 1 ) into the equation

- 1 = a(3 - 2)² - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

3 = a

Thus

y = 3(x - 2)2 - 4 ← equation in vertex form

= 3(x² - 4x + 4) + 4

= 3x² - 12x + 12 + 4

= 3x² - 12x + 16 ← equation in standard form

with coefficient of x² term = 3
