Functions
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
g(x) = 5x + 4
g(x) = 9
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>x</em></u>
- Substitute in function value: 9 = 5x + 4
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4 on both sides: 5 = 5x
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: 1 = x
- Rewrite: x = 1
∴ when the function g(x) equals 9, the value of <em>x</em> that makes the function true would be <em>x</em> = 1.

As a fraction, it would be 5 6/10. Then you multiply the denominator by the whole number 5x10 and add the numerator. So,
10X5+6=56
56/10
divide by 2
28/5 is the simplified version
Answer:
40 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of minutes it would take colleen to finish the job when he is working alone. Hence, it can be represented by the equation:

Solving the quadratic equation to get c gives:
c = -12 and c = 40
Since the time cannot be negative, hence c = 40 minutes.
It would take colleen 40 minutes to clear the yard of leaves alone
