Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 (x - 1) + 8 (x - 3) = 6x + 7 - 5x

-3 (x - 1) + 8 (x - 3) = 6x - 5x + 7

-3 (x - 1) + 8 (x - 3) = x + 7

-3x + 3 + 8x - 24 = x + 7

-3x + 8x + 3 - 24 = x + 7

5x - 21 = x + 7

    +21        +21

--------------------------------------------------

5x = x + 28

-x     -x

---------------------------------------------------

4x = 28

The sum of two polynomials is â€"yz2 â€" 3z2 â€" 4y 4. If one of the polynomials is y â€" 4yz2 â€" 3, what is the other polynomi
gtnhenbr [62]

The sum of polynomials involves adding the polynomials

The other polynomial is y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1

The sum of the polynomials is given as:

Sum = y^3 + 3y^2 + 4y - 4

One of the polynomials is given as:

P = 4y^2 - 3

Represent the other polynomial with Q.

So, we have:

P +Q =Sum

Substitute the expressions for P and Sum

4y^2 - 3 +Q =y^3 + 3y^2 + 4y - 4

Make Q the subject

Q =y^3 + 3y^2 -4y^2+ 4y - 4 +3

Evaluate like terms

Q =y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1

Hence, the other polynomial is y^3 -y^2+ 4y - 1

Factor out the GCF: 16x + 48​
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: 16(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation: When you're asked to a polynomial, the first thing you want to look for is the greatest common factor between the terms that are involved.

So what is the greatest common factor of 16x and 48?

The greatest common factor of 16x and 48 is 16 because

it's the largest number that divides evenly into 16 and 48.

The x does not qualify because it must appear in every term

to qualify for the GCF but here, it only appears in one term.

So a 16 factors out leaving us with each term divided by it

inside a set of parentheses so w eget 16(x + 3).

Notice that if we distributed the 16 through both terms,

we would end up with our original polynomial.

Sam scored 80% on Part A of a math test and 92% on part B of the math test. His total mark on the test was 63. The total possibl
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

0.80A + 0.92B = 63 .....1

A + B = 75 ......2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B represent the total possible score in part A and B respectively;

Analysing each sentence of the question;

Sam scored 80% on Part A of a math test and 92% on part B of the math test. His total mark on the test was 63

80% of A + 92% of B = 63

0.80A + 0.92B = 63 ......1

The total possible marks for the test was 75;

A + B = 75 .....2

So, equation 1 and 2 provides a set of simultaneous equations that can be used to represent and solve the situation.

Solving the simultaneous equations, we will arrive at;

Part A = 50

Part B = 25

If a graph shows the function y=3x what are the coordinates of the intercepts
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

graph{3x+5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

x

intercept:  

x

=

−

5

3

 

y

intercept:  

y

=

5

Explanation:

For a linear graph, the quickest way to sketch the function is to determine the  

x

and  

y

intercepts and draw a line between the two: this line is our graph.

Let's calculate the  

y

intercept first:

With any function,  

y

intercepts where  

x

=

0

.

Therefore, substituting  

x

=

0

into the equation, we get:

y

=

3

⋅

0

+

5

y

=

5

Therefore, the  

y

intercept cuts through the point (0,5)

Let's calculate the  

x

intercept next:

Recall that with any function:  

y

intercepts where  

x

=

0

.

The opposite is also true: with any function  

x

intercepts where  

y

=

0

.

If we substitute  

y

=

0

, we get:

0

=

3

x

+

5

Let's now rearrange and solve for  

x

to calculate the  

x

intercept.

−

5

=

3

x

 

−

5

3

=

x

Therefore, the  

x

intercept cuts through the point  

(

−

5

3

,

0

)

.

Now we have both the  

x

and  

y

intercepts, all we have to do is essentially plot both intercepts on a set of axis and draw a line between them

The graph of the function  

y

=

3

x

+

5

:
