What value of p makes this equation true? 3p − 8 = −23

Mathematics
1 answer:
valkas [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\boxed{\sf p=-5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf  3p - 8 = -23

First, rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation:

\sf 3p=-23+8

Add -23 + 8 = -15

\sf 3p=-15

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable "3" :

\sf \cfrac{3p}{3} =\cfrac{-15}{3}

Cross out common factor:

\sf p=-5

Find the value of cos W rounded to the nearest hundredth, if necessary,
Aliun [14]

Answer:

cos W = 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically the cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse side

From the diagram given, 14 is adjacent to vertex w and 30 faces the right angle which makes it the hypotenuse

So, we have it that;

cos W = 14/30

cos W = 7/15

The functions f(x) = −(x − 1)2 5 and g(x) = (x 2)2 − 3 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. apply your kn
ale4655 [162]

The vertex of the function f(x) exists (1, 5), the vertex of the function g(x) exists (-2, -3), and the vertex of the function f(x) exists maximum and the vertex of the function g(x) exists minimum.

<h3>How to determine the vertex for each function is a minimum or a maximum? </h3>

Given:

$\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=-(\mathrm{x}-1)^{2}+5$ and

$\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x})=(\mathrm{x}-2)^{2}-3$

The generalized equation of a parabola in the vertex form exists

$y=a(x-h)^{2}+k

Vertex of the function f(x) exists (1, 5).

Vertex of the function g(x) exists (-2, -3).

Now, if (a > 0) then the vertex of the function exists minimum, and if (a < 0) then the vertex of the function exists maximum.

The vertex of the function f(x) exists at a maximum and the vertex of the function g(x) exists at a minimum.

To learn more about the vertex of the function refer to:

I was at the store, and saw two sizes of avocados being sold. The regular size sold for $0.84 each. For what prices would the la
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The bigger avocado will be a better deal if the ratio of the sizes of the bigger one to the smaller one is less than the ratio of the prices of the bigger one to the smaller one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two sizea of avocados are being sold, since the regular size is being sold for $0.84 each, let the price for the bigger avocado be $x.

Then note the following:

1. How bigger than the smaller avocado is the bigger one?

This would determine if the price for the bigger one is a bargain, or a mistake.

If for instance, the bigger avocado is double the size of the smaller one, then for any price, $x less that $1.68 (twice of $0.84), it is a bargain.

The bigger avocado will be a better deal if the ratio of the sizes bigger one to the smaller one is less than the ratio of the prices of the bigger one to the smaller one.
