Answer:

A. (f-g)(x) = -7x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

(f -g)(x) = f(x) -g(x) = (-3x -5) -(4x -2)

= -3x -5 -4x +2

= -3x -4x -5 +2

(f -g)(x) = -7x -3

Answer:

$x=44$

m∠1=118°

m∠2=62°

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: They are supplementary angles, so

$2x+30+62=180$

Simplify like terms,

$2x+92=180$

We subtract 92,

$2x=88$

Divide by 2,

$x=44$

Part B:

$m$ ∠ $1=2x+30$ because ∠2 is vertical to 2x+30.

Plug in 44 for x,

$m$ ∠ $1=2(44)+30$

Simplify,

$m$ ∠ $1=118$

$m$ ∠ $2=62$ ° because it is a vertical angle to the 62° angle.

A music store has sold 3/5 of their hip-hop CDs, but 10 were returned.Now the store has 62 Hip-Hop CDs,How many Hip-Hop CDs did

kow [346]

Answer: 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original number of hip- hop CDs in the music store.

Given : A music store has sold 3/5 of their hip-hop CDs, but 10 were returned.

i.e. The number of hip- hop CDs in the store will be :

Original No. of CDs - CDs sold + CDs Returned

$x-\dfrac{3}{5}x+10$

If the store has 62 Hip-Hop CDs now , then required euation will be :-

$x-\dfrac{3}{5}x+10=62$

Subtract 10 from both sides , we get

$x-\dfrac{3}{5}x=52$

$\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{5x-3x}{5}=52$

$\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{2x}{5}=52$

$\Rightarrow\ x=52\times\dfrac{5}{2}=130$

Hence, the number of CDs they originally have = 130

6x - 2y = 26<br><br> 2x + 3y = 5<br><br> Solve for X and Y

Softa [21]

Answer:

y is equal to -1

x is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.

Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.
