Three-fourths of a number increased by one-half
= 3/4 x + 1/2
So three-fourths of a number increased by one-half is equal to fourteen:
3/4 x + 1/2 = 14
Multiply both sides by 4
3x + 2 = 56
Subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 54
Divide both sides by 3
x = 18
Answer: The number is 18
Answer:
f(-2) = -3
Explanation:
Not sure if those last couple numbers are answer choices, but I'm going to infer that they might be.
Twenty four over the quantity of 3 x minus two in standard form is:
f(x) = <span>24<span>3x−2</span></span>
Since the number in the ( ) = x, plug in for x using f(-2)
<span>24<span>3∗<span>(−2)</span>−2</span></span>
P E {M D} {A S} for where to solve first
Multiply the 3 and (-2):
<span>24<span>−6−2</span></span>
Add -6 and -2:
<span>24<span>−8</span></span>
Divide the rest:
f(-2) = -3
The answer is -130. hope this helps.
Using the change in base property, we have
approximately.
L=w+2 and 2w+2l=44
substitute equation for length in perimeter equation
2w+2(w+2)=44
2w+2w+4=44
4w+4=44
4w=40
w=10
substitute width into length equation to get length
l=10+2
l=12
a=lw
a=12*10
a=120 cm^2
