Answer:

-2.2 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we're trying to find x in our equation here. In order to do this, we need to isolate the variable.

-8.58 / ___ = 3.9

It's easier for me to write out the equation like this:

\frac{-8.58}{x} = 3.9

What we're going to do here is multiply x on both sides.

\frac{ (x)-8.58}{x} = 3.9 (x)

The x with the fraction cancels out, leaving -8.58.  3.9 times x is 3.9x.

Our equation now looks like this:

-8.58 = 3.9x  We now divide 3.9 from both sides.  (3.9x divided by 3.9

-2.2 = x          cancels out, leaving us with x).

We have now found our answer!

What is the range of the function f(x) = |x| – 3?
Likurg_2 [28]
Why not draw the graph of y=|x|?  It has a v-shape, and the vertex is at (0,0).

The graph of f(x) = |x| - 3 looks exactly the same, EXCEPT that the whole graph of |x| is shifted 3 units downward.  The smallest value that y can have is therefore -3.

Can you now figure out the range of f(x)?

David is making rice for his guests based on a recipe that requires rice, water, and a special blend of spice, where the rice-to
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The price of rice per gram is 0.006$

Step-by-step explanation:

I. David wants to make 10 servings,

each require 75 g of rice and 5 spice. When ratio is 15:1

If rice : spice = 75 : x

15x = 75

x = 5

=> 5 * 15 : 1 * 5

= 75 : 5

So rice : spice is  75 : 5

II. When 1 serving require 75 : 5

So 10 servings is 10 * 75 : 5 * 10

= 750 : 50

So he must has 750 grams rice and 50 grams spice.

III. He must buy spice and rice which..

a) He has 40 grams spice, he'll buy for 10 grams spice.

b) He has no rice, he'll buy for 750 grams rice.

But the question only ask for price of rice which he spend 4.5$

=  \frac{4.5}{750}

= 0.006$

In 1 gram of rice he spend 0.006$

If 750 grams of rice, he'll spend 750 * 0.006$ = 4.5$ => true

That makes 0.006$ is the right answer.

Hope that help :)
