Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-8 = 16x + 9

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 9 on both sides:                      -17 = 16x
  2. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 16 on both sides:                              -17/16 = x
  3. Rearrange/Rewrite:                                                                                        x = -17/16

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                                -8 = 16(-17/16) + 9
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                                -8 = -17 + 9
  3. Add:                                                                                                                 -8 = -8

Here we see that -8 does indeed equal -8.

∴ x = -17/16 is the solution to the equation.

Anna007 [38]
No Alana's mom cannot be 3 times her age because 8 multiplied by 3 equals 24, Alana's mom would have to be 4 times her age. (8 multiplied by 4 equals 32)

Which equation could possibly represent the graphed function?
Tasya [4]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial has roots at x=-4, -2, 4.

So, the equation should have factors of (x+4), (x-2), (x-4).

This eliminates everything except for A.

Use the graph of the derivative of f to locate the critical points x0 at which f has neither a local maximum nor a local minimum
jok3333 [9.3K]
<span>Critical points are where the derivative is 0, i.e. where it crosses the x - axis

The Critical points lies where the derivative is 0, while it crosses the x-axis, SO, in this case the choice 3 looks like best answer for this.

30 treadmills to 36 elliptical machines the ratio in simplest form
Goshia [24]
30 treadmills : 36 ellipticals
this could be written in a few ways, but i am going to write it as a fraction. since treadmills come first, you put 30/36.

now that you have your fraction you have to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of the two numbers. the GCF is 6, so you have to divide 30 treadmills by 6, and 36 ellipticals by 6.
30/6=5
36/6=6

5/6 or 5:6 is the simplified ratio of treadmills to ellipticals
