Find x in terms of the other letters a( x + b ) = c( x + d )

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{cd-ab}{a-c}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is worded in a complicated way. All it says is to solve the equation for x. Do this by isolating x on one side of the equation.

First step is to distribute the a and c on either side,

ax+ab=cx+cd

Subtract cx from both sides,

ax+ab-cx=cd

Next, subtract ab from both sides,

ax-cx=cd-ab

Then, factor out x from the left side,

x(a-c)=cd-ab

Finally, divide both sides by a-c,

[tex]x=\frac{cd-ab}{a-c}[/tex]

Camilla thinks that -5 is less than -7 because 5 is smaller than 7.explain why Camilla is correct

Answers

Think of a vertical number line. The positive values count down as we move down this number line. The negative numbers count up, so to speak, as we move down the number line. So we have -1, -2, -3, ... as we move down. This indicates that -5 is not smaller than -7.

Answers

Using linear functions, it is found that the correct option is:

Equation A has a steeper slope, because [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex].

A linear function has the following format:

[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]

In which:

a is the slope, which is the rate of change.The higher the slope, the steeper the function is:

Linear equation A is given by:

[tex]y = \frac{4}{5}x[/tex]

Linear equation B passes through points (0, 2) and (5, 4). Since the slope between two points is given by change in y divided by change in x, we have that:

[tex]m = \frac{4 - 2}{5 - 0} = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Equation A has a higher slope, hence, it is steeper, and the correct option is:

Equation A has a steeper slope, because [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex].

How do you solve this and find x?

Answers

Answer:

fraction form

x= 2 + ln(30)/ln(7)

decimal form

x= 3.74786969

Step-by-step explanation:

What I like to call the logarithmic equation solver.

Bring it down turn it around.

First bring down the 7 to a ㏒7 and the x-2 so that ㏒7(x-2)=30

Then change the constants from on another so then it would look like

㏒7(30)=x-2

solve for x

to solve do the log base finder equation ㏒(30)/ln(7)

and add 2

X is 3.748

To accomplish this task you have to take the logarithm of both sides of the equation to remove the variable from the exponent.

ln(30)/ln(7)+2

ln(30)=3.401

ln(7)=1.946

3.401/1.946=1.7476

1.7476+2=3.748 after considering all extra decimal places to the closest thousandth.

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x)=4x^2+3x on the interval [1,5]

Answers

Answer:

7, though I don't know if it's 100% correct. I tried to help.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x interval [1,5]

f(1) = 4(1)^2 + 3(1)

f(1) = 4 + 3

f(1) = 7

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 27}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is the change in the output from one input to another. Essentially, it is the change in y over the change in x.

[tex]\frac {\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac { f (x_2)- f(x_1) }{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let's assign 1 to x₁ and 5 to x₂.

[tex]\frac {f(5)-f(1)}{5-1}[/tex]

We must find the outputs f(5) and f(1). Substitute the value in for each x in the function.

f(x)= 4x² + 3x

f(5) = 4(5)² + 3(5) f(5)= 4(25) + 15 f(5) = 100 + 15 =115

f(1)= 4(1)² + 3(1) f(1)= 4(1) + 3 f(1)= 4+ 3 =7

Now we can find the average rate of change. We know the outputs and we know the inputs.

[tex]\frac {f(5)-f(1)}{5-1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac {115 -7}{5-1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac {108}{4}[/tex]

[tex]27[/tex]

The average of change of the function f(x) = 4x² + 3x on the interval [1,5] is 27.

Answers

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-3) = -3(-3) +7

f(-3) = 16

g(3) = -7(3) +3

g(3)= -18

16 -(-18) = 34

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -3x + 7

f(-3) = -3(-3) + 7

= 9 + 7 (two negatives make a positive)

= 16

g(x) = -7x + 3

g(3) = -7(3) + 3

= -21 + 3

= -18

16 - (-18)

16 + 18 (two negatives make a positive

= 34

Write an equation for the line that goes through (-2,6) and is parallel to the line y=1/2x+9

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Therefore the new equation will have a slope(m) = 1/2

Substitute m = 1/2 and point (-2, 6) into y = mx + b to solve for "b"

y = mx + b

6 = 1/2(-2) + b

6 = -1 + b

7 = b

The new equation: y = mx + b

                                y = 1/2x + 7

X times 2+11
Explaination me smart

Part A

x = some unknown number

2x = doubling that number

2x+11 = adding on eleven

Answer:   2x+11 = 25

=============================================================

Part B

If we knew what x was, then we can compute 2x+11 using the order of operations PEMDAS. Because x is unknown, we follow PEMDAS in reverse to isolate x.

So we'll undo the addition first by subtracting 11 from both sides. Then we undo the multiplication by dividing both sides by 2.

2x+11 = 25

2x+11-11 = 25-11 ..... subtract 11 from both sides

2x = 14

2x/2 = 14/2 ...... divide both sides by 2

x = 7

The number the person thought of was 7. Double 7 to get 14. Add on eleven to get 14+11 = 25.

Find the 75th term of the arithmetic sequence -21, -10, 1

Answers

Answer:

793

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequences are basically linear equations, so as input increase by one output always increases by the same amount. In sequences this is called common difference. To find it, just subtract one term by the term right before it.

So, -10--21=11 and also 1--10=11

so common difference is 11

now we will use the formula Asubn=Asub1+d(n-1)

D is Common difference and n is the term you're solving for. The n-1 is a result of the first term being in the formula. When one is plugged into n-1 you get zero and then multiply d by zero and you get zero and are left with Asub1

Anyways, Asub75=-21+11(75-1)=793

Solve the equation-10 +1 +7x =37

Answers

Answer:

Answer in Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

-10 + 1 + 7x = 37

-9 + 7x = 37

Add 9 on both sides to leave 7x alone

7x = 46

Divide by 7 to leave x alone

x = 46/7 or 6.57

If the equation is positive 10 at the beginning instead of -10 then this is the answer for that:

10 + 1 + 7x = 37

11 + 7x = 37

Subtract 11 from both sides to leave 7x alone

7x = 26

Divide by 7 to leave x alone

x = 26/7 or 3.7
