Answer:
f(5.9)= 15.7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x -2
f(5.9) = 3(5.9) -2
f(5.9) = 17.7 -2
f(5.9) = 15.7
Word Explination
If the (x) in f(x) is replaced by another variable (in this case, a number) any other x seen in the equation is replaced by that variable. For this question, the x in f(x) is replaced by 5.9. And so any other x in this equation needs to be replaced by 5.9 as well. From there on out, you solve.
Answer:
m<SQP=124°
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're given ΔQRS, the measure of <R (90°), and the measure of <S (34°)
we need to find m<SQP (given as x+72°)
exterior angle theorem is a theorem that states that an exterior angle (an angle on the OUTSIDE of a shape) is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles (the angle OUTSIDE of a shape will be equal to the sum of 2 angles that are OPPOSITE to that angle).
that means that m<SQP=m<R+m<S (Exterior angle theorem)
substitute the known values into the equation
x+72°=90°+34° (substitution)
combine like terms on both sides
x+72°=124° (algebra)
subtract 72 from both sides
x=52° (algebra)
however, that's just the value of x. Because m<SQP is x+72°, add 52 and 72 together to get the value of m<SQP
m<SQP=x+72°=52°+72°=124° (substitution, algebra)
Hope this helps!
Let x = roller coaster ticket
let y = boat ride ticket
x + y = 10
4x + 3y = 37
x = 10 - y
4x + 3y = 37
4(10-y) + 3y = 37
40 - 4y + 3y = 37
-y = 37 - 40
-y = -3
y = -3/-1
y = 3
x = 10 - y
x = 10 - 3
x = 7
x = 7 ; y = 3
4x + 3y = 37
4(7) + 3(3) = 37
28 + 9 = 37
37 = 37
