Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(15x + 5) and (-2 + 16x) represents the measures of corresponding angles.

Measures of corresponding angles are equal.

Therefore,

- 2 + 16x = 15x + 5

16x - 15x = 5 + 2

x = 7

True or False?In Exercise,determine whether the statement is true or false given that f(x) = In x.if it is false,explain why or

EastWind [94]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This is false. We can disprove this by plugging in the number into the function f(x) = lnx

f(0) = ln0

Since $e^{- \infty} = 0$ , $ln0 = -\infty$

This is not 0 so f(0) cannot be equal to 0, thus disproving the statement.

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to

Alchen [17]

Answer:

$y - 9 = \frac{1}{2}(x +3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Function; $y = -2x + 8$

Required

Find an equation perpendicular to the given function if it passes through (-3,9)

First, we need to determine the slope of: $y = -2x + 8$

The slope intercept of an equation is in form;

$y = mx + b$

Where m represent the slope

Comparing $y = m_1x + b$ to $y = -2x + 8$ ;

We'll have that

$m_1 = -2$

Going from there; we need to calculate the slope of the parallel line

The condition for parallel line is;

$m_1 * m_2 = -1$

Substitute $m_1 = -2$

$(-2) * m_2 = -1$

Divide both sides by -2

$m_2 =\frac{ -1}{-2}$

$m_2 =\frac{1}{2}$

The point slope form of a line is;

$y - y_1 = m_2(x - x_1)$

Where $(x_1,y_1) = (-3,9)$ and $m_2 =\frac{1}{2}$

$y - y_1 = m_2(x - x_1)$ becomes

$y - 9 = \frac{1}{2}(x - (-3))$

Open the inner bracket

$y - 9 = \frac{1}{2}(x +3)$

Hence, the point slope form of the perpendicular line is: 

 $y - 9 = \frac{1}{2}(x +3)$

If p(x)=2x^2 -4 and q(x)=x-3, what is (p*q)(x)

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

2x^3 - 6x^2 - 4x + 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

(p*q) (x) = (2x^2 - 4)(x - 3)

= 2x^3 - 6x^2 - 4x + 12.

Identify the type of function represented by f(x)= 3/8(4)^x

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

It is an exponential function

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following function:

f (x) = 3/8 (4) ^ x

The function is of the form:

f (x) = A (b) ^ x

Where,

A: initial amount

b: growth factor (b> 1)

x: time variable.

Answer:

f (x) = 3/8 (4) ^ x

It is an exponential function of the form:

f (x) = A (b) ^ x
