Answer:

10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set an equation for you and your brother.

You have $90 plus $18 for every week you save (x).

90+18x

And your brother has $120 plus $15 dollars per week that he saves (x)

120+15x

You want to have the sum of the money equal so combine the two concluded statements

90+18x=120+15x

Arrange them so that you have like terms on each side

90+18x-15x=12+15x-15x

90+3x=120

90-90+3x=120-90

3x=30

x=10

"x" is our number of weeks you and your brother save so the answer is 10 weeks

Just to be sure you can use our equation and plug 10 for every time you see x to make sure our answer is right.

Evaluate each function following the specification.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

#3 a. g(-1) = 2, g(0) = 3, and g(1) = 2

b. No restrictions for all real numbers

$\#4 \ a. \ h(-1) = \dfrac{1}{3}, \ h(0) =0, \ h(2) = \infty$

b. Yes, x ≠ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

#3 The function is given as g(x) = -x² + 3

a. From the given function, by plugging in the value of 'x' in the bracket, we have;

g(-1) = -(-1)² + 3 = -1 + 3 = 2

g(-1) = 2

g(0) = -0² + 3 = 3

g(0) = 3

g(1) = -1² + 3 = -1 + 3 = 2

g(1) = 2

g(-1) = 2, g(0) = 3, and g(1) = 2

b. The given function g(x) = -x² + 3 for finding the value of g can take any value of x which is a real number

Therefore, therefore, there are no restrictions

#4 a. The given function is given as follows;

$h(x) = \dfrac{x}{x - 2}$

By substitution, we get;

$h(-1) = \dfrac{-1}{(-1) - 2} = \dfrac{-1}{-3} = \dfrac{1}{3}$

$\therefore h(-1) = \dfrac{1}{3}$

$h(0) = \dfrac{0}{0 - 2} = \dfrac{0}{-2} =0$

$\therefore h(0) =0$

$h(2) = \dfrac{2}{2 - 2} = \dfrac{2}{0} = \infty$

$\therefore h(2) = \infty$

$h(-1) = \dfrac{1}{3}, \ h(0) =0, \ h(2) = \infty$

b. From the values of the function, we have that h(x) is not defined at x = 2

Therefore, there is a restriction for x in the function, which is x ≠ 2

1. x = 3, y = 2
2. x = -99/68, y = -14/17
3. x = -4, y = 1
4. x = 1, y = 5
5. x = -1, y = 0
6. x = 2, y = -3
7. x = 14, y = 20

I attached the pictures with the work.

What is the solution of the system? use the substitution method. {y−2x=816 4x=2y the only solution is (24, 0) . the only solutio

Butoxors [25]

To determine the answer it would be helpful if we write this equation into the slope intercept form which is expressed as:

y = mx+b

 y−2x=816
y = 2x + 816

4x=2y
y = 2x

We can see that the slope of the two equations are the same. Therefore, they are parallel which means they do not intersect. The correct answer is the third option, there is no solution.

4% of .65 is .02, so the gum would be a total of $0.67, gas was $26.34, and the windshield wiper fluid is $4.97. Add those all together and you have $31.98, if you give the clerk $20 then you still owe $11.98.
