the first step Andre made was

2x+6=3x-8

or, -x+6=-8

And the first step Diego made was

2x+6=3x-8

or, +6=3x-2x

or, 6=x-8

How do the graphs of the functions f(x)=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%29%5Ex" id="TexFormula1" titl

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (3/2)ˣ

g(x) = (2/3)ˣ

These are examples of exponential equations:

y = a bˣ

If b > 1, the equation is exponential growth.

If 0 < b < 1, the equation is exponential decay.

So f(x) is an example of exponential growth, and g(x) is an example of exponential decay.

Also, 2/3 is the inverse of 3/2, so:

g(x) = (3/2)^(-x)

So more specifically, f(x) and g(x) are reflections of each other across the y-axis.

What is an equation of the line that passing through the points (-2, -5) and (4, 7) ?

monitta

Answer:

$y=2x-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope-intercept formula: $y=mx+b$ where m is slope and b the y-intercept.

$(-2,-5)(4,7)$

Use the slope formula for when you have two points:

$\frac{y(2)-y(1)}{x(2)-x(1)}=\frac{rise}{run}$

Rise over run is the change in the y-axis over the change in the x-axis. Insert values:

$\frac{7-(-5)}{4-(-2)}$

Simplify parentheses (negative+negative=positive)

$\frac{7+5}{4+2}$

Simplify

$\frac{12}{6}=2$

2 is the slope:

$y=2x+b$

Now use one of the points to find the y-intercept by substituting the x and y values into the equation. Solve for b:

(4,7)

$y=2x+b\\7=2(4)+b$

$7=8+b\\7-8=8-8+b\\7-8=b\\-1=b\\b=-1$

The y-intercept is -1. Insert into the equation. Change the + symbol to -:

$y=2x-1$

Done.

A rectangle has a base of 5 cm and a height of (x + 2)cm. Its area is 20 cm ^ 2. What is the value of x?

Len [333]

So area is base x height:
5(x+2)=20
5x+10=20
5x=10
x=2
its A
