Answer: Yes i think so put yes
ANSWER: x=5/3, -1. Good luck. Hope this suffices.
Explanation for x=-1: |9x-3|=12. Lets take the absolute value brackets away for a sec. Add 3 to both sides 9x-3+3=-12+3, simplify: 9x=-9, divide both sides by nine:9x/9=-9/9. And that means that x=-1.
Explanation for x=5/3: |9x-3|=12. Add 3. 9x-3+3=12+3. Simplify: 9x=15. Divide both sides by 9. 9x/9=15/9. Simplify: x=5/3
A boy swimming at an elevation of 3 feet below sea level. This is the answer because the boy is only 3 feet away from sea level while the bird is 10 feet away form sea level.
Answer:
Rita paid 47,500 dollars for the purchase price.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the sales tax on a new car is directly proportional to the purchase price of the car which means there is is something k such that
when you multiply it to the sales tax you get the purchase price.
Let's set this equation:
y=kx
Let y represent the purchase price and x the sales tax.
The second sentence tells us that (x,y)=(1500,30000).
We can plug this into y=kx to find the constant k. (Constant means it stays the same no matter what the input and output is).
So we have:
30000=k(1500)
300 =k(15) I went ahead and divided previous equation by 100.
Now divide both sides by 15:
300/15=k
Simplify:
20=k
So the equation to use the answer the question is
y=20x
where y is purchase price and x is sales tax.
So we want to know the purchase price on a car if the sales tax is 2375.
So replace x with 2375:
y=20(2375)
y=47500
The boat uses 4 gallons to travel 6 miles. Traveling 4 times as far is expected to require 4 times the gas.
4 gallons = 6 miles
Multiply by 4.
16 gallons = 24 miles
⇒ 16 gallons
