Answer: It's 65.9

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>decreased by 7.5%</h3>

<h3>means 100% - 7.5% = 92.5%</h3>

<h3>92.5% * x = 61</h3>

<h3>x= 61 / 92.5%</h3>

<h3>x = 65.9459</h3>

<h3>to the nearest tenth :</h3>

<h3>original number is 65.9</h3><h3>Hope this helps have a awesome day/night❤️✨</h3>

Y = 9x + 14<br> y = 4x + 49
ipn [44]

Answer:

x = 7; y = 77

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 9x + 14

y = 4x + 49

Since both equations are solved for y, set the two right sides equal and solve for x.

9x + 14 = 4x + 49

5x = 35

x = 7

Sow substitute 7 for x in the first equation and solve for y.

y = 9x + 14

y = 9(7) + 14

y = 63 + 14

y = 77

Answer: x = 7; y = 77

Show all work to identify the discontinuity and zero of the function f of x equals 4 x over quantity x squared minus 16
Leto [7]

Answer:

Discontinuity of function occurs when x = 4 or x = -4

zero of function is when x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f(x) = \frac{4x}{x^2 - 16}

Discontinuity of the function occur when the denominator is equal to zero.

So, we need to find the values of x that makes the denominator zero.

The denominator is x^2 - 16

x^2 - 16 =0

x^2 = 16

x = ± 4

So, if the value of x = 4 or value of x=-4 then the function will be discontinuous.

Zero of the function i.e f(x)=0

So, Putting the function equal to zero and finding the value of x

\frac{4(x)}{(x)^2 - 16}=0\\4x =0((x)^2 - 16)\\4x=0\\x=0

So, zero of function is when x=0
