Answer:

y=9 and x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

ok looking at what they give us in the question we can see that we have two equations. to solve for it be will need to combine them together

note that because they use the word sum we know it's addition

y= x-6

x+y=24

now that we have these we can substitute y=x-6 for the y in our addition equaution such that we have it in terms of one variable:

x+ (x-6) = 24

2x-6=24

2x=30

x=15

now going back we can find Y

15+ y = 24

y=9

Point p is on the terminal side
strojnjashka [21]

The value of the cotΘ will be 1.It is the ratio of the base and the perpendicular.

<h3>What is trigonometry?</h3>

The field of mathematics is concerned with the relationships between triangles' sides and angles, as well as the related functions of any angle.

The value of the cotΘ is found as;

\rm cot \theta = \frac{B}{P} \\\\ \rm cot \theta = \frac{5}{5} \\\\ cot \theta = 1

I Need help plz help me i Sony understand

A. 2, 200, 2000  

This is multiplying the number by 10 each time. In other words, just adding an extra zero to the end of it. 

b. 340, 0.034 

This one is moving the decimal place forward two places. 10^-2, so removing two zeros from the end of it until eventually you reach decimals and have to move the decimal forward twice, which is essentially what you're doing here.

c. 85700, 857, 0.857

In this one, you remove one zero from the end. You move the decimal forward once when you reach the decimals. This would be 10^-1

d. 444000, 4440000, 44400000

In this one, you multiply each one by 10. Add on a zero to each one.

e. 0.095, 9500000, 950000000

You multiply this one by 10^2, so the number increases.

For f(x) = 4x + 2 and g(x) = x^2 - 6, find (f+g)(x)
Margaret [11]

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = x^2 + 4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given these following functions:

f(x) = 4x + 2

g(x) = x^2 - 6

(f+g)(x)

We add the common terms. Thus:

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = 4x + 2 + x^2 - 6 = x^2 + 4x + 2 - 6 = x^2 + 4x - 4

Thus:

(f+g)(x) = x^2 + 4x - 4
