Answer:
Your power function is y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The way I found it was.
0=0, so, the function multiply by zero, and have no other term to add
A number (one in a case) gives as a result: -2. So, one, elevated to ANY power results in one, every time. So, I have 1, as a factor and -2 as a result. One is as well a factor that delivers a result equal to the other factor. (3)(1)=3 , (8987)(1)=8987. So, the other factor must be -2
Then I checked all the table, and the results were consistent.
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees
5x+8x+2x =180
Combine like terms
15x = 180
Divide by 15 on each side
15x/15 =180/15
x=12
Let one piece of the rope be x
Let the other piece of rope be x + 5
These two pieces put together will make 20 feet.
So we say:
x + (x +5) = 20
What is x? We expand the equation.
x + x + 5 = 20
x + x = 20 - 5
2x = 15
x = 7.5
The shorter piece is therefore 7.5 feet.
The longer piece is 7.5 + 5 = 12.5 feet.
