Answer:

it is 862.5

Step-by-step explanation:

each inch is 115 miles, so if theres two inches theres double the amount that there would be if there was 1 inch, so if theres 7 inches then you would have 7 times the amount it would be if there was 1 inch, in this situation theres 7.5 so you would multiply the 115 miles by 7.5 becuase that's how many inches there is, so multiplying that is the same as adding 115 plus 115 plus 115, and so on till you get the amount you need. did this help?

Determine which equations have the same solution set as StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction minus x plus StartFraction 1 Over 6 E
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

A, B, F

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 - x + 1/6 = 6x

Collect like terms

2/3 + 1/6 = 6x + x

(4+1) / 6 = 7x

5/6 = 7x

x = 5/6 ÷ 7

= 5/6 × 1/7

x = 5/42

a) 4 - 6x + 1 = 36x

4 + 1 = 36x + 6x

5 = 42x

x = 5/42

Equivalent to the last step of the simplification above

b) 5/6 - x = 6x

5/6 = 6x + x

5/6 = 7x

This is equivalent to the third step of the simplification

c) 4 - x + 1 = 6x

4 + 1 = 6x + x

5 = 7x

x = 5/7

Not equivalent to any of the steps in the simplification above

d) 5/6 + x = 6x

5/6 = 6x - x

5/6 = 5x

x = 5/6 ÷ 5

= 5/6 × 1/5

x = 5/30

Not equivalent to any of the steps in the simplification above

e) 5 = 30x

x = 5/30

Not equivalent to any of the steps in the simplification above

f) 5 = 42x

x = 5/42

Equivalent to the last step of the simplification above

Which is the initial value that shrinks an exponential growth function by 50%?
ValentinkaMS [17]
Suppose that the exponential growth function is  y = 4^x.

If x = 1, then y = 4^1 = 4.
If x = 3, then y = 4^3 = 64.

Let the initial value be 1/2.

The growth function is now y = 1/2 * 4^x.

If x =1, then y = 2 which is half of the y value before adding the 1/2.

If x = 3, then y = 1/2 * 64 = 32.

Answer: 1/2

For which values of k does the system of linear equations have zero, one, or an infinite number of solutions? [Note: not all thr
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The system has an infinite solution at k = 6, otherwise for any value of k, it has zero solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the system of linear equations:

3x_{1} -x_{2}=2\;\;\;\;\;\;(1)\\ 9x_{1} -3x_{2}=k\;\;\;\;\;(2)

The system of linear equations can have zero, one, or an infinite number of solutions:

simplify equation (1):

x_{2}=3x_{1} -2

substitute in equation (2), we get

9x_{1} -3(3x_{1}-2)=k\\9x_{1} -9x_{1}+6=k\\0+6=k

we cannot find the value of x_{1} and x_{2}.

so, there is no solution.

Multiply the equation (1) with 3 and put k is 6,

3(3x_{1} -x_{2})=3\times2\\9x_{1} -3x_{2})=6

it means both equations are overlapped. Then, the solution has infinite solutions.

Hence, the system has an infinite solutions at k is 6 otherwise for any value of k it has no solution.
