Answer:

The number is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 2 = 88

Add 2 to each side:

6x = 90

Divide each side by 6:

x = 15

Substitute to check:

6 ( 15 ) - 2 = 88

90 - 2 = 88

88 = 88

The amount of garbage, G produced by a city with population p is given by G = f(p). G is measured in tons per week, and p is mea

barxatty [35]

Alright, so this is simple.

P= 50,000 or 50 thousands

G= 13 Tons

The variable f isn't known.

So your equation would be 13 = 50 (f), if you were to put your known variables in the equation.

If you were to find variable f, you would divide 13 tons by 50,000 to get 0.00026 or in scientific notation: 2.6 x 10 (exponent(s):-4)

Help please! Identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to Y =-4x + 8 that passes through (-2, 7)

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

D. $y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x+2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

The line given to us has equation; $y=-4x+8$ .

The slope of this line is -4. The of the line perpendicular to this line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Our slope of interest is therefore; $m=\frac{1}{4}$

Since the point goes through (-2,7), we have $x_1=-2,y_1=7$ .

We plug in the slope and the point into the point-slope formula to obain;

$y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x--2)$

The required equation is:

$y-7=\frac{1}{4}(x+2)$

What is the difference of the two polynomials? (9x2 + 8x) – (2x2 + 3x) 7x2 + 5x 7x2 + 11x 11x2 + 5x 11x2 + 11x

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

we have

$(9x^{2}+8x)-(2x^{2}+3x)$

Step 1

Eliminate the parenthesis

$(9x^{2}+8x)-(2x^{2}+3x)=9x^{2}+8x-2x^{2}-3x$

Step 2

Group terms that contain the same variable

$9x^{2}-2x^{2}+8x-3x$

Step 3

Combine like terms

$7x^{2}+5x$

therefore

the answer is

$7x^{2}+5x$
