Answer:

4y - yx(3-7y) + 5 + 2(8-y) equals to 7xy^2 − 3xy + 2y + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply numbers inside the parentheses.

4y - yx(3-7y) + 5 + 2(8-y)= 4y − 3yx + 7y^2x + 5 + 16 − 2y

2. Then combine all like terms

4y − 3yx + 7y^2x + 5 + 16 − 2y

4y - 2y = 2y

2y − 3yx + 7y^2x + 5 + 16

5 + 16 = 21

2y − 3yx + 7y^2x + 21

3. After combining like terms, simplify.

2y − 3yx + 7y^2x + 21

Move y^2

2y − 3yx + 7xy^2 + 21

Move 2y

− 3yx + 7xy^2 + 2y + 21

Reorder - 3yx and 7xy^2 (7xy^2 is more bigger than -3yx)

7xy^2 − 3yx + 2y + 21

4. Final answer = 7xy^2 − 3xy + 2y + 21

For f(x) = 3x - 1 and g(x) = x+2, find (f – g)(x).

kobusy [5.1K]

Well, I bet you want your answer right away! So here it is.

Given f (x) = 3x + 2 and g(x) = 4 – 5x, find (f + g)(x), (f – g)(x), (f × g)(x), and (f / g)(x).

To find the answers, all I have to do is apply the operations (plus, minus, times, and divide) that they tell me to, in the order that they tell me to.

(f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

= [3x + 2] + [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 + 4 – 5x

= 3x – 5x + 2 + 4

= –2x + 6

(f – g)(x) = f (x) – g(x)

= [3x + 2] – [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 – 4 + 5x

= 3x + 5x + 2 – 4

= 8x – 2

(f × g)(x) = [f (x)][g(x)]

= (3x + 2)(4 – 5x)

= 12x + 8 – 15x2 – 10x

= –15x2 + 2x + 8

\left(\small{\dfrac{f}{g}}\right)(x) = \small{\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}}(gf)(x)=g(x)f(x)= \small{\dfrac{3x+2}{4-5x}}=4−5x3x+2

My answer is the neat listing of each of my results, clearly labelled as to which is which.

( f + g ) (x) = –2x + 6

( f – g ) (x) = 8x – 2

( f × g ) (x) = –15x2 + 2x + 8

\mathbf{\color{purple}{ \left(\small{\dfrac{\mathit{f}}{\mathit{g}}}\right)(\mathit{x}) = \small{\dfrac{3\mathit{x} + 2}{4 - 5\mathit{x}}} }}(gf)(x)=4−5x3x+2

Hope I helped! :) If I did not help that's okay.

Determine whether the lines given in each box are parallel, perpendicular, or neither

andrey2020 [161]

Answer/Step-by-sep explanation:

To determine whether the lines given in each box are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, take the following simple steps:

1. Ensure the equations for both lines being compared are in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. Where m is the slope.

2. If both lines have the same slope value, m, then both lines are parallel.

3. If the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the other, then both lines are perpendicular. That is, x = -1/x.

4. If the slope of both lines are not the same, nor the negative reciprocal of each other, then they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

1. y = 3x - 7 and y = 3x + 1.

Both have the same slope value of 3. Therefore, they are parallel.

2. ⬜ $y = -\frac{2}{5}x + 3$ and $y = \frac{2}{5}x + 8$

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -⅖ and the slope of the other is ⅖. Therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

3. $y = -\frac{1}{4}x$ and $y = 4x - 5$

The slope of the first line, ¼, is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line, 4.

Therefore, they are perdendicular.

4. 2x + 7y = 28 and 7x - 2y = 4.

Rewrite both equations in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

2x + 7y = 28

7y = -2x + 28

y = -2x/7 + 28/7

y = -²/7 + 4

And

7x - 2y = 4

-2y = -7x + 4

y = -7x/-2 + 4/-2

y = ⁷/2x - 2

The slope of the first line, -²/7, is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line, ⁷/2.

Therefore, they are perdendicular.

5.⬜ y = -5x + 1 and x - 5y = 30.

Rewrite the second line equation in the slope-intercept form.

x - 5y = 30

-5y = -x + 30

y = -2x/-5 + 30/-5

y = ⅖x - 6

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -5 and the slope of the other is ⅖. therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

6.⬜ 3x + 2y = 8 and 2x + 3y = -12.

Rewrite both line equations in the slope-intercept form.

3x + 2y = 8

2y = -3x + 8

y = -3x/2 + 8/2

y = -³/2x + 4

And

2x + 3y = -12

3y = -2x -12

y = -2x/3 - 12/3

y = -⅔x - 4

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -³/2 and the slope of the other is -⅔ therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

7. y = -4x - 1 and 8x + 2y = 14.

Rewrite the equation of the second line in the slope-intercept form.

8x + 2y = 14

2y = -8x + 14

y = -8x/2 + 14/2

y = -4x + 7

Both have the same slope value of -4. Therefore, they are parallel.

8.⬜ x + y = 7 and x - y = 9.

Rewrite the equation of both lines in the slope-intercept form.

x + y = 7

y = -x + 7

And

x - y = 9

-y = -x + 9

y = -x/-1 + 9/-1

y = x - 9

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -1, and the slope of the other is 1, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

9. y = ⅓x + 9 And x - 3y = 3

Rewrite the equation of the second line.

x - 3y = 3

-3y = -x + 3

y = -x/-3 + 3/-3

y = ⅓x - 1

Both have the same slope value of ⅓. Therefore, they are parallel.

10.⬜ 4x + 9y = 18 and y = 4x + 9

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

4x + 9y = 18

9y = -4x + 18

y = -4x/9 + 18/9

y = -⁴/9x + 2

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -⁴/9, and the slope of the other is 4, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

11.⬜ 5x - 10y = 20 and y = -2x + 6

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

5x - 10y = 20

-10y = -5x + 20

y = -5x/-10 + 20/-10

y = ²/5x - 2

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is ⅖, and the slope of the other is -2, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

12. -9x + 12y = 24 and y = ¾x - 5

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

-9x + 12y = 24

12y = 9x + 24

y = 9x/12 + 24/12

y = ¾x + 2

Both have the same slope value of ¾. Therefore, they are parallel.
