Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

-3(x + 4) + 5x = 24

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute -3:                    -3x - 12 + 5x = 24Combine like terms:        2x - 12 = 24Isolate x term:                  2x = 36Isolate x:                           x = 18

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                     -3(18 + 4) + 5(18) = 24Add:                                      -3(22) + 5(18) = 24Multiply:                                -66 + 90 = 24Add:                                      24 = 24

Here we see that 24 does indeed equal 24.

∴ x = 18 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 3)

m = [tex]\frac{3+1}{0+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{1}[/tex] = 4

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3 ) ⇒ c = 3

y = 4x + 3 ← equation of line

An audio books club charges an initial joining fee of $20.00. The cost per audio book is $15.00. The graph shows the cost of belonging to the club as a function of audio books purchased. How will the graph change if the cost per audio book goes up by $1.00?
(The new function is shown by the dotted line.)

Answers

Answer:

The graph will change by simply having an increased slope of 16 instead of 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will consider the initial case as stated by the problem where the joining fee is $20 and each book is $15.  Let x represent the number of books that we have purchased.  Then, we can write the following function to represent the cost of this club.

f(x) = 15x + 20

Note, if x = 0, meaning we have no books, then

f(0) = 15(0) + 20

f(0) = 0 + 20

f(0) = 20

Which is the cost of our joining fee.  If x = 1, meaning we have 1 book, then

f(1) = 15(1) + 20

f(1) = 15 + 20

f(1) = 35

Which is the cost of our joining fee and 1 book, which matches our graphed function.

Now, let's consider that the cost of the book is $16 instead of $15 ("the cost per audio book goes up by $1.00").  Then we can modify the slope of our function to reflect this change giving us the new function:

g(x) = 16x + 20

In this new function, our slope increased from 15 to 16, to account for the increase in cost, but our initial 20 remained the same.

So the graph will change by simply having an increased slope of 16 instead of 15.

Cheers.

Answer:

The new function will have a steeper slope, so...

Step-by-step explanation:

Le: t  x ----> the number of audio books purchased

y ---->the cost of belonging to the club in dollars

case 1 (Originally) :

y = 15x + 20

case 2 ( the cost per audio book goes up by $1.00) :

y= (15+1)x+ 20

y = 16x + 20

The slope of the new function is greater than the slope of the original function    

The new function will have a steeper slope:

16  $/ audio book > 15 $/audio book

Answers

Answer:

tsa

Step-by-step explanation:

tsa of cube is 6a²

so

64cm²=6a²

Answer:

96 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a cube is calculated as

V = s³ ( s is the side length )

Here V = 64 , thus

s³ = 64 ( take the cube root of both sides )

s = [tex]\sqrt[3]{64}[/tex] = 4

A cube has 6 congruent square faces.

The area of 1 face = s² = 4² = 16 cm², thus

area of 6 faces = 6 × 16 = 96 cm² ← surface area

Find a formula for the function f(x) such that f′(x)=sin(x) and f(2)=5.

Answers

Answer: f(x) = -cos(x) + 4.584

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that f'(x) = sin(x)

if we integrate that, we get:

f(x) = -cos(x) + C

Where C is a constant of integration.

And we also want that:

f(2) = 5

with that relationship we can find the value of C.

f(2) = 5 =  -cos(2) + C

(The calculation is done in radians)

        5 = -(-0.416) + C

       5 - 0.416 = C = 4.584

Then the function is:

f(x) = -cos(x) + 4.584

The scale factor from triangles ABC to XYZ IS 6.

Option A is the correct answer.

What is a scale factor?

A scale factor is defined as the ratio between the scale of a given original object and a new object,

We have,

ΔABC and ΔXYZ

The corresponding sides are:

AB = XY

BC = YZ

AC = XZ

Now,

We see that,

XY = 6 x AB

YZ = 6 x BC

XZ = 6 x AC

So,

The scale factor is 6.

Thus,

The scale factor from triangles ABC to XYZ IS 6.

slope of line perpendicular to the line y=-1/4x-1 is 4.

What is Slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Let us write the given equation  y=-1/4x-1

If we compare the given equation with slope intercept form

We get to know slope of line m is -1/4.

It two lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes will be -1

-1/4×m=-1

m=4

Hence slope of line perpendicular to the line y=-1/4x-1 is 4.

A poster of the detroit lions football players uses a scale of 4 inches= 3 feet. If quarterback Matthew stafford is 8 1/2 inches tall on the poster, find his actual height.

Answers

Answer:

The actual height = 6.38 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a poster of the detroit lions football players uses a scale

of 4 inches = 3 feet

so

1 inch = 3/4 feet

Given that the poster's length:

[tex]8\frac{1}{2}=\frac{17}{2}=8.5[/tex] inch

We need to determine the actual height if quarterback Matthew Stafford is 8 1/2 inches tall on the poster.

As 1 inch = 3/4 feet

Thus, we need to multiply 8.5 inches by 3/4 to determine the actual height of the player.

Actual height = 8.5 × 3/4 feet

                      = 6.38 feet

Therefore, the actual height = 6.38 feet

Inverse operations are mathematical operations that undo one another. Division is the inverse operation of multiplication. -2 × 6 = -12. -12 ÷ 6 then "undoes" this multiplication, leaving us with a quotient of -2. Multiplication and division follow the same rules related to signs. A negative integer multiplied by a positive integer gives us a negative product. Similarly, a negative integer divided by a positive integer gives us a negative quotient. However, unlike multiplication, division is not commutative. If you change the order of the number you're dividing and the number you're dividing by, you will get a different quotient. Find the quotient: -54 ÷ 9 =

Answer:

-54/9=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing this division we need to take a couple of things into account. First, notice we are dividing a negative number into a positive number, therefore our answer must be negative.

Second, notice that 9 fits 6 time into 54, therefore:

-54/9=6

We can look at this graphically, if we have 54 squares and divided them in groups of 9, we would get 6 groups of 9 in total.
