Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

x=blue

y=white

x+y=40

30x+20y=920

30(x+y=40) ; 30x+30y=1200___[1]

30x+20y=920 ; 30x+20y=920___[2]

[1]-[2] : 30x+30y-30x-20y=1200-920

       10y=280

       y=28

painter buys 28 white gallons

Let y = f(x) be a function with domain D = [−6, 10] and range R = [−8, 12]. Find the domain D and range R for each function. Ass
bogdanovich [222]
A) The domain remains the same.
Since, in y = - 2 f(x) , the y is whats being multiplied and therefore changed, not the x  or domain.
Therefore D[-6,10] <span>
The range is what changes by a factor of -2.
If the original range was [-8,12], then the new one is 
[(-8 x -2),(12 x -2)] = [16 , -24].

However, you must flip the numbers to make the interval true, giving you R [-24,16]</span>

Simplify (2x+3y)+(7x-3y)
Radda [10]
(2x+3y)+(7x-3y) First, group like terms together, so (2x+7x) + (3y-3y). Then simplify within the parentheses. 2x+7x = 9x and 3y-3y = 0, so you have 9x, which cannot be simplified any further. The answer is 9x.

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that 12/(2x+1)=8/(x+4). Cross multiply to get 16x + 8 = 12x + 48. Subtract 12x + 8 from both sides to get 4x = 40, so x = 10.

I do not know if is a function or not. Please explain
bezimeni [28]
It is a function because in a function the x's do not repeat. So since there are no two numbers in the x column that are the same, yes it is a function.
