Mathematics
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x= −1/2, x=52/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+7)=13

(2)(x)+(2)(7)=13(Distribute)

2x+14−14=13−14

2x=−1

2x/<u><em>2</em></u>=−1/<u>2</u>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5(x−7)=17

(5)(x)+(5)(−7)=17(Distribute)

5x+−35=17

5x−35=17

5x−35+35=17+35

5x=52

5x/<u><em>5</em></u>=52/<u>5</u>

Solve each equation 3m-3/5=2m-1/2
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

m= 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move the terms so that will be 3m - 2m=-1/2 + 3/5

2. Subtract the m values so that will be 3m - 2m= 1 or m

3. Calculate the sum.

4. So the answer will be m= 1/10. M because we subtracted 2 from 3 which make us 1 so we say it m and 1/10 by doing 1/2 + 3/5.

Andrea Is selling candles as a fundraiser she spent $50 on supplies for making the candles she plans to sell candles for $10 eac
dalvyx [7]

COMPLETE QUESTION:

Andrea is selling candles as a fundraiser. She spent $50 on supplies for making the candles. She plans to sell the candles for $10 each. Her profit can be modeled by C(x) = 10x - 50.

What type of function is this?

What is the domain and range of the function?

Answer:

- This function is one-to-one

- Domain D = {x: x is a whole number ≤ Z}

- Range R = {y: y is in -50, ..., (10Z - 50)}

Where Z is the number of candles she could produce with $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that her profit is modeled by C(x) = 10x - 50

- This function is one-to-one, because it is in the form f(x) = y.

Let the number of candles she could make with $50 be Z.

Then the domain is the set of all whole numbers less or equal to Z.

D = {x: x is a whole number ≤ Z}

If there are infinite number of candles she could make with that money, then

D = (-infinity, infinity)

When x = 0, we have C = -50

When x = Z, we have C = 10Z - 50

The range is then given as

R = whole numbers from -50 up to (10Z - 50)

R = {y: y is in (50 -Z), ..., (10Z - 50)}

If there are infinite number of candles she could make with that money, then

R = (-infinity, infinity)

What is y+1=2(x-4) written in standard form
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

2x - y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

Rearrange y + 1 = 2(x - 4) into this form

y + 1 = 2x - 8 ( add 8 to both sides )

y + 9 = 2x ( subtract y from both sides )

9 = 2x - y ⇒ 2x - y = 9 ← in standard form

6th grade math ! help me please :)
malfutka [58]
1. N + 2; n = 6: the answer is 8 because n=6 so we sub n with that... and we get 6+2 and that’s 8.

2.5f; where f=4: the answer is 20 because when a variable is directly next to a number it is multiplied by that number so we will replace f with 4 and our equation is now 5(4) or 5•4 and both are equivalent to 20.

3. 7b-2; where b=5: the answer is 33 because 7 multiplied by 5(b) minus 2= 7(5)-2 or 7•5-2= 33 because you will multiply 7 by 5 and get 33 then you will subtract by 2 and get 33.

Hope this helps!!!
