12x=4(x+5)     (multiplying 4 by each argument in the parenhesis)
12x=4x+20     /-4x both sides
8x=20  /:8 divide both sides by 8
x= \frac{20}{8}= 2 \frac{4}{8}=2.5

15x-3(3x+4)=6      (-3 times each argument in the parenthesis)
15x-9x-12=6
6x-12=6             /+12 both sides
6x=18        /:6 divide both sides by 6
x=3

3x-5x+10=36
-2x+10=36     /-10 both sides
-2x=26      /:(-2) divide both sides by -2
x=-13

2(x+3)=x+10
2x+6=x+10      /-x
x+6=10          /-6
x=4

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that
If two chords intersect in the interior of a circle, then the product of the lengths of the segments of one chord is equal to the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord (Segments of Chords Theorem)

therefore

AB*BC=DB*BE
AB=x
BC=x
DB=62
BE=250-62---------> BE=188 ft

so
x*x=62*188----------> x²=11656--------> x=√11656--------> x=107.96 ft

the answer is x=107.96 ft

A study on how circus ticket pricing influences ticket sales shows that there is an average increase of 4 people for every $3 de
Harrizon [31]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

3. R(x) = 25,500 -720x -12x²

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Starting from 340 tickets, the number of tickets increases by 4 for each unit change in x. Hence, tickets sold will be (340 +4x).

Starting from $75, price per ticket decreases by $3 for each unit change in x. Hence ticket price is (75 -3x).

Revenue from ticket sales is the product of the number of tickets and the price at which they are sold:

... R(x) = (340 +4x)·(75 -3x)

... R(x) = 25,500 -720x -12x² . . . . . matches the 3rd choice

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y – 8 = y minus 8 equals startfraction one-half endf
Marina CMI [18]

The linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation is (B) f(x)=\frac{1}{2} x+6.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
  • The word linear function in mathematics refers to two distinct but related concepts.
  • A linear function in calculus and related fields is a function whose graph is a straight line, that is, a polynomial function of degree zero or one.

To find the linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation:

Given: y-8=\frac{1}{2} (x-4)

Distribute the right side:

y-8=\frac{1}{2} (x)-\frac{1}{2} 4\\y-8=\frac{1}{2} x-2

Adds 8 on both sides:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-2+8\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+6

Convert to function notation:

f(x)=y\\f(x)=\frac{1}{2} x+6

Therefore, the linear function which represents the line given by the point-slope equation is (B) f(x)=\frac{1}{2} x+6.

The complete question is given below:

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y – 8 = y minus 8 equals start fraction one-half end fraction left-parenthesis x minus 4 right-parenthesis. (x – 4)?

A) F(x) = f(x) equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x plus 4.X + 4

B) f(x) = f(x) equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x plus 6.

C) X + 6 f(x) = f(x) equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x minus 10.X –10

D) f(x) = f(x) equals StartFraction one-half EndFraction x minus 12.X – 12
