Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-3 = 7x+12

  • Subtract 12 from each side

4x-15 = 7x

  • Subtract 4x from each side

-15 = 3x

  • Divide each side by 3

-5 = x

  • Rewrite using symmetric property
<h2><u>x = -5</u></h2>

Answer:

20 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find x and y.

x – y = 4 _____(1)

x/2 + y/2= 18___(2)

Multiply (2) by 2 and add to (1)

  x - y = 4

+<u>(x + y = 36)</u>

 <u>2x   =   40</u>

=> x = 40 / 2 = 20

From (1):

20 - y = 4

=> y = 20 - 4 = 16

The two numbers are 20 and 16.

Is the following relation a function? {(3, −5), (1, 2), (−1, −4), (−2, 2)}
NeTakaya

Answer:

Function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is a function every x that in your domain only gets assigned to exactly one number in your range.

Basically if you have a set of points and you see that the same x is being used more than once, then it isn't a function (unless for some reason they repeated the same point).

So the x's I see in the order that your points are is 3,1,-1,-2.  All of these x's are different so it is a function.
