Answer:

infinitely many solutions / all solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

you distribute 3x+30+6 = 3x+36
combine like terms 3x+36 = 3x+36
realise the 2 terms are the same so x can be anything

Answer:

x = infinite amount of solutions

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

3(x + 10) + 6 = 3(x + 12)

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute 3: 3x + 30 + 6 = 3x + 36
Combine like terms: 3x + 36 = 3x + 36
Subtract 36 on both sides: 3x = 3x
Divide 3 on both sides: x = x

Here we see that x does indeed equal x. We can plug in any number x and it would render the equation true.

∴ x = infinite amount of solutions

3. Jen’s parents buy a tablet for her to use in school. Of the $1500 cost, her parents expect her to pay back $1000 one year lat

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating simple interest as shown;

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate *Time/100

Principal = Cost of tablet = $1500

Interest after one year = $1500-$1000 = $500

Time = 1year

Substituting this values into the formula;

$500 = 1500*rate*1/100\\Cross\ multiplying\\50,000 = 1500 * rate\\Rate = 50,000/1500\\Rate = 33.3%$

The interest rate that her parents assumed is 33.3%

Julia is going to the store to buy candies. Small candies cost $4 and extra-large candies cost $12.She needs to purchase at leas

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Small candies $=9$

Extra large candies $=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small candies $=x$

Extra large candies $=y$

the number of candies is at least $20$ .

$x+y\geq20$

Cost of $1$ small candy $=\$4$

Cost of $1$ extra large candy $=\$12$

but she has only $\$180$ to spend

$4x+12y\leq180$

Solve for

$x+y=20.......(1)\\4x+12y=180.....(2)\\eqn(2)-eqn(1)\times4\\8y=100\\y=\frac{100}{8} \\y=\frac{25}{8} \\from\ eqn(1)\\x+\frac{25}{2}=20\\ x=20-\frac{25}{2} \\x=\frac{15}{2}$

Since number of candies should be integer.

let $x=7,y=13$

total spend $4\times7+12\times13=184$ which is more than $\$180$ , so this combination is not possible.

$let\ x=8,y=12\\8\times4+12\times12=176$

She has $\$4$ more so she can buy $1$ more small candy.

Hence small candy $=9$

extra large candy $=12$

Answer:

The function is injective but nor surjective

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that:

f(x) = x³

For any x₁ and x₂ ∈ N,

f(x) = x₁³ = x₂³ ⇒ x₁ = x₂, both are natural numbers

It it confirmed one-to-one, hence it is injective

Check the surjectivity:

f(x) = y ∈ N

x³ = y
y = ∛x

Let y = 2, then:

2 = x³
x = ∛2 ∉ N

Since x is not natural, the function is not surjective

An exponentially function is expressed in the form y = axb^x . The relation represents a growth when _ and a decay when _ .

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The relation represents a growth when b>1 and a decay when 0<b<1

Step-by-step explanation:

Any function in the form $f(x)= a(b^x)$ , where a > 0, b > 0 and b not equal to 1 is called an exponential function with base b. If 0 1 is an example of exponential growth. An exponential function is expressed in the form $y=a(b^x)$ The relation represents a growth when b >1 and a decay when 0<b<1.
