12(x-20)=-48 what is x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sophie [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

12(x - 20) = -48

Use distributive property

12*x - 12*20 = -48

12x - 240 = -48

Add 240 to both sides

12x = -48 + 240

12x = 192

Divide both sides by 12

x = 192/12

x = 16

Which function is the inverse of ?<br> f(x)=50,000(0.8)^x
IrinaK [193]
Answer:

<span>y=<span><span><span>log<span>(x)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8)</span></span></span></span>

Explanation:

write as : <span>y=50000<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span></span>

Taking logs:

<span><span>log<span>(y)</span></span>=<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span>+<span>log<span>(.<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span>.)</span></span></span>

But <span>log<span>(.<span><span>(0.8)</span>x</span>.)</span></span> is the same as <span>x<span>log<span>(0.8)</span></span></span>

Thus
<span>x=<span><span><span>log<span>(y)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8<span>)

</span></span></span></span></span>Now swap the x'x and the y's giving:<span><span><span><span><span>
</span></span></span></span></span>

<span>y=<span><span><span>log<span>(x)</span></span>−<span>log<span>(50000)</span></span></span><span>log<span>(0.8<span>)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of the triangular prism, you need to find the area of all the sides and add them together. The two triangular bases have already been established to have an area of 3 square units each, so together they have an area of 6 units. Two of the rectangular sides have dimensions of 3.5 by 2.5 units, while one has dimensions 3.5 by 3 units. Adding all of this together, you get a total of 34 square inches, or option e. Hope this helps!
