Let x = John's age now

half of what johns age was 4 years ago: (1/2)(x-4)

is equal to one third of what it will be in 5 years time: (1/3)(x+5)

 

(1/2)(x-4) = (1/3)(x+5)

 

3(x-4) = 2(x+5)

 

3x - 12 = 2x + 10

The graph shows the temperature of ice cream in an ice chest during an overnight trip. What is the domain of this function?
mariarad [96]

Let

x-------> the number of hours

y------> the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit

we know that

For x=0\ hours

y=-10\°\ F

For x=30\ hours

y=30\°\ F

The domain of the function is the interval----------> [0,30]

0\ hours \leq x\leq 30\ hours

The range of the function is the interval----------> [-10,30]

-10\°\ F \leq y\leq 30\°\ F

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The domain is all real numbers 0 through 30

I am stuck please help!
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

5x - 63 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, first step, let's get all fractions having a common denominator, to do this, multiply 2/3 by 3 to get 6/9. Now, we have 5/9x-7=6/9. To make these into whole numbers, we can multiply the whole equation by the denominator (9). 5/9x multiplied by 9 is 5. 7 multiplied by 9 is 63. 6/9 multiplied by 9 is 6. Now we have 5x-63=6. If I were to simplify the equation, it would require decimals, so I'll leave it at this, but the equation simplified is x=13.8.
