Five times a number is 16 less than thirteen times the same number. Find the number.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dovator [93]3 years ago

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. Writing an equation in terms of the number, x, gives

5x=13x-16.

Adding 16 to both sides gives

5x+16=13x.

Then, subtracting 5x from both sides gives

8x=16,

and dividing by 8 on both sides simplifies to

x=2.

Match the range of the function f(x) = x2 2x − 1 to its domain.
Ivan
F(x) = x^2 + 2x -1

Domain all real number

Range: all real numbers equal or greater than -2.

To find the range you need to find the vertex of the parabole, which is (-1,-2) and use the fact that, given that the coefficient of x^2 is positive, the funcion open upwards (which means that the vertex is a global minimum).

To find the vertex you use the quadratic formula to find the roots and then the x-coordinate of the vertex is in the middle of the two roots.
