Answer:

1/2 half

How do you do this equation: 9|5x+8|=54
Sergio [31]

Answer (2 answers):

x = -2/5,  x = -14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to try and get the absolute value by itself on one side and everything else that's not inside the absolute value on the other side.

9|5x+8|=54

|5x+8| = 54/9

|5x+8| = 6

Remember how absolute values turn everything positive? For example

|-4|=4, but |4|=4 as well. So we must do the same to our problem by splitting up the absolute equation into two parts.

|5x+8| = 6     and     |-(5x+8)| = 6

now solve the first equation.

(Just remove the absolute value sign and solve it normally)

5x+8 = 6

5x = -2

x = -2/5

Now solve the other equation

-(5x+8) = 6

-5x - 8 = 6

-5x = 14

x = -14/5

Pls help and show workings <br> Due ASAP
tester [92]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y+2=\frac{3}{4} x-8 is not yet in slope-intercept form(y=mx+b).  Simply subtract 2 from both sides to turn the equation into slope intercept form as y=\frac{3}{4}x-10.  For a line to be perpendicular to another, it must have an opposite reciprocal slope.  A reciprocal is the fraction reversed, where the numerator is the denominator and vice versa.  Thus, 3/4 would become 4/3.  The opposite reciprocal of 3/4 would be -4/3.

The slope of the line given is 3/4.  Thus, simply plug in the opposite reciprocal of 3/4 for the slope to get: y=-\frac{4}{3} x+b.  Then, because the line passes through -12, 1, plug those values in for x and y, respectively.  

1=-\frac{4}{3}*-12+b

1=16+b

-15=b

Thus, the equation of the line is y=-\frac{4}{3} x-15, or B.

Hope it helps :D

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by th
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

8.90 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When the rocket hits the ground, its height ( <em>y</em> ) will be zero. This means we can write the equation as:

  • 0 = -16x²+129x+119

So we need to <u>solve that equation</u>:

  • a = -16
  • b = 129
  • c = 119
  • x = \frac{-b\frac{+}{-}\sqrt{b^2-4ac}  }{2a}

x₁ = -0.84

x₂ = 8.90

We discard x₁, as it is negative.

So the answer is x₂, 8.90 seconds.

Caleb has an offer from a credit card issuer for 0% APR for the first 30 days and 17.68%
svetlana [45]

Solution:- Answer is 19.33%

Annual percentage rate (APR) is the yearly rate for a price which have to pay for borrowing money through credit card.

Here Caleb has an offer from a credit card issue for i=0% APR for the first 30 days.

now, effective interest rate for n= 30 days  

=r=(1+\frac{i}{n} )^n-1\\\Rightarrow\ r=(1+\frac{0}{30} )^{30}-1\\\Rightarrow\ r=(1+0)^{30}-1=1-1=0

After 30 days APR =17.68%=0.1768

n=365-30=335 days

now the effective interest rate for n=335 days

=r=(1+\frac{i}{n} )^n-1\\\Rightarrow\ r=(1+\frac{0.1789}{335} )^{335}-1\\\Rightarrow\ r=(1+0.000527)^{335}-1=(1.000527)^{335}-1=1.1933-1=0.1933

=19.33%

So the effective interest rate for 365 days =0+19.33% =19.33%

So fourth option is correct.
