4 times a number is 44 less than 6 times the number. Find the number.

Mathematics

Vinvika [58]2 years ago

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 6x-44

1. Set x as the number we want to find.

2. Multiply by four (this makes one side of the equation)

3. "Is" tells us that 4x will be set equal to another expression.

4. The expression "6 times the number" tells us that we need to multiply 6 by x: 6x.

5. We now must account for the "44 less than 6 times the number", less than indicates subtraction. We are told that 44 fewer units than 6x will define this function.

6. 6x-44

7. Now set 4x=6x-44 (this goes back to step 3)

8. Use algebra to solve, first we want to isolate x, so subtract 6x on both sides.

9. -2x=-44  Now divide by -2 on both sides.

10. You reach an answer of x=22.

Which of the following is an odd function?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

F(x)=6x^3+2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Odd functions have solely odd powers of x.  

F(x)=4x^3+7      is actually   F(x) = 4x^3 + 7x^0, which is neither even nor odd.

F(x)=6x^3+2x   has only odd powers of x:  x^3 and x^1.  This is the answer.

Kim ran a mile in PE class. After resting for 1 hour her heart rate was 75 beats per minute. If her heart rate decreased by ⅖ ,
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

125

Step-by-step explanation:

since you take away 2/5 of the original number to get 75, 75 is equal to 3/5's of the original. You then divide 75 by 3, get 25, then multiply 25 by 5 to find the answer which is 125.

FACTOR. THEOREM is x-3 a factor?!
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Yes, (x - 3) is a factor of P(x) and 3 is a zero or root of P(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine whether or not (x - 3) is a factor by using synthetic division with +3 as the divisor.  The coefficients of the polynomial p(x) are {2  -5  -4  0  9}.

Setting up synthetic division:

3   /   2    -5    -4    0    9

                6     3    -3   -9

    -------------------------------

          2     1     -1     -3    0

Since the remainder is zero (0), we know that 3 is a root of the polynomial P(x) and that (x - 3) is a factor of said polynomial.
