Y = 4x-9 y = x-3 Which method and why? Solve, shoving all work

Mathematics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ys in both questions are isolated on one side of the equation in both. The numerical coefficient of both is 1. Therefore you should equate the the left side of each equation to the other left side. The solution is the easiest one to solve because there is only 1 unknown on both sides.

4x - 9 = x - 3                      Subtract x from both sides.

4x-x - 9 = -3                       Combine

3x -9 = - 3                          Add 9 to both sides

3x - 9+9 = - 3+9

3x = 6                                Divide by 3

3x/3 = 6/3

x = 2

===============

Now use the second equation to solve for y

y = x - 3

y = 2 - 3

y = -1

==============

The solution is (2,-1)

The function h(t) = 150 – 9t represents the height of a ball dropped from 150 feet after t seconds. What will the height of the
Alekssandra [29.7K]
After 1.4 seconds, t = 1.4.
h(t) = 150 - 9(1.4)
Multiply 9 by 1.4 to get 12.6. 
h(t) = 150 - 12.6 
Subtract 12.6 from 150 to get 137.4. 
h(t) = 137.4.
The height of the ball would be 137.4 after 1.4 seconds. 
Hope this helps!

Which statement is true about the discontinuities of the function f(x)?
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

  (a)  There are asymptotes at x=3/2 and x=-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator zeros can be found by factoring:

  f(x) = (x +1)/((2x -3)(3x +1))

Neither of the denominator factors is cancelled by the numerator factor, so each represents a vertical asyptote, not a function hole.

The asymptotes are at the values of x where the denominator is zero:

  2x -3 = 0   ⇒   x = 3/2

  3x +1 = 0   ⇒   x = -1/3
