The question has omitted options but i will solve, so you will just check my answer from the options you have.

Answer: The equation to find the value of x = 3x+ 2= 5x-4

The value of x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

The sum of 3 times the value of x and 2 is equal to four less than five times the value of x can be expressed as

3x+ 2= 5x-4

Step 2

Solving this equation to find the value of x , we have that

3x+ 2= 5x-4

3x-5x= -4-2

-2x= -6

x= -6/-2

x=3

A number of squares are connected in a row to form a rectangle. The table shows the relationship between the number of squares,

svp [43]

Answer:

✅The table can be represented by the equation, $y = 4x + 4$

✅The relation is a function.

✅The graph of the function is linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️The first statement: The table can be represented by the equation, $y = 4x + 4$ .

To check if the first statement is correct let's find the equation that can represent the table by finding the slope (m) and y-intercept (b).

Using two pairs, (1, 8) and (2, 12),

Slope = $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{12 - 8}{2 - 1} = \frac{4}{1} = 4$ .

Substitute, x = 1, y = 8, and m = 4 into y = mx + b to solve for b.

Thus:

8 = (4)(1) + b

8 = 4 + b

Subtract 4 from each side

8 - 4 = b

4 = b

Plug in the values of b and m into y = mx + b.

Thus, the equation that represents the table would be:

$y = 4x + 4$ .

✅Therefore, the first statement is correct.

✍️The second statement: The graph of the function is non-linear.

This is NOT TRUE because the equation of the function, $y = 4x + 4$ , represents the equation of a linear graph in the slope-intercept form. When graphed, it will give us a straight line.

✍️The Third statement: The relation is a function.

This is TRUE because each input value (x-value) has exactly one output value (y-value).

✍️The Fourth statement: The rate of change is NOT constant.

This standby is NOT TRUE.

The rate of change is the slope (m) that we have calculated above to be 4. Between any two pairs, the rate of change remains 4.

Therefore, this statement is not correct.

✍️The Fifth statement: The graph of the function is linear.

This is TRUE. As stated earlier, from the equation generated, it is safe to say that the equation represents graph of a linear function. The graph will be a straight line graph.

Which number, when rounded to the nearest tenth, is 43.6? Options: A: 43.55 B: 43.657 C: 43.65 D: 43.549

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

A: 43.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Place value can be defined as the numerical value representing a digit owing to its position in a number. Some examples of the various place values used in representing each digit are tenths, hundredths, thousandths, unit, tens, hundreds, thousands etc.

For example, in the number 43.55;

The place value of 4 is tens.

The place value of 3 is units.

The place value of 5 is tenths.

The place value of 5 is hundredths.

Rounding up to the nearest tenth simply means to have 1 significant figure after the decimal point.

Therefore, 43.55 to the nearest tenth is 43.6

Answer:

1) $n = 84$

2) $n = 78$

3) $n = 24$

4) $n = 16$

5) $n = 35$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve each proportion, we apply cross multiplication.

Question 1:

$\frac{5}{12} = \frac{35}{n}$

$5n = 35*12$

Simplifying both sides by 5

$n = 7*12 = 84$

Question 2:

$\frac{n}{52} = \frac{180}{120}$

$120n = 52*180$

Simplifying both sides by 20

$6n = 52*9$

Simplifying by 3

$2n = 52*3$

Simplifying by 2

$n = 26*3 = 78$

Question 3:

$\frac{18}{n} = \frac{21}{28}$

$21n = 18*28$

Simplifying both sides by 7

$3n = 18*4$

Simplifying both sides by 3

$n = 6*4 = 24$

Question 4:

$\frac{n}{4} = \frac{24}{6}$

$\frac{n}{4} = 4$

$n = 16$

Question 5:

$\frac{10}{16} = \frac{n}{56}$

$16n = 56*10$

Simplifying by 2, both sides

$8n = 56*5$

Simplifying by 8, both sides

$n = 7*5 = 35$
