Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.
5x-5=9x+3
9x is being added to 3. The opposite of addition is subtraction, so subtract 9x from both sides.
5x-9x-5=9x-9x+3
5x-9x-5=3
-4x-5=3
5 is being subtracted from -4x. The opposite of subtraction is addition, so add 5 to both sides.
-4x-5+5=3+5
-4x= 3+5
-4x=8
x is being multiplied by 4. The opposite of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by -4.
-4x/-4=8/-4
x=8/-4
x= -2
If f ( x ) f ( x ) is a linear function, f ( − 5 ) = 0 f ( - 5 ) = 0 , and f ( 2 ) = 4 f ( 2 ) = 4 , find an equation for f ( x ) f ( x )
f(x)=________
================================================
Explanation:
We have
f(-5) = 0 and f(2) = 4
This means the two points (-5,0) and (2,4) are on this line
----------
Find the slope of the line through (x1,y1) = (-5,0) and (x2,y2) = (2,4)
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (4 - 0)/(2 - (-5))
m = (4 - 0)/(2 + 5)
m = 4/7 is the slope
----------
Plug m = 4/7 and (x1,y1) = (-5,0) into the point-slope formula. Solve for y.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 0 = (4/7)(x - (-5))
y = (4/7)(x + 5)
y = (4/7)x + (4/7)*5
y = (4/7)x + 20/7
f(x) = (4/7)x + 20/7
This linear equation has a slope of 4/7 and a y intercept of 20/7.
The equation for f ( x ) would be; f(x) = (4/7)x + 20/7
What is the slope?The slope is the ratio of the vertical changes to the horizontal changes between two points of the line.
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
We are given f(-5) = 0 and f(2) = 4
This means the two points (-5,0) and (2,4) are on this line
To Find the slope of the line through (x1,y1) = (-5,0) and (x2,y2) = (2,4)
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (4 - 0)/(2 - (-5))
m = (4 - 0)/(2 + 5)
m = 4/7 is the slope
Then substitute m = 4/7 and (x1,y1) = (-5,0) into the point-slope formula. Solve for y;
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 0 = (4/7)(x - (-5))
y = (4/7)(x + 5)
y = (4/7)x + (4/7)*5
y = (4/7)x + 20/7
f(x) = (4/7)x + 20/7
The linear equation has a slope of 4/7 and a y intercept of 20/7.

A boat goes 30 km upstream and 44 km downstream in 10 hours. In 13 hours, it can go 40 km upstream and 55 km down-stream. Determine the speed of the stream and that of the boat in still water.
Answer:
Average speed of boat = 3.67 km/h
Average speed of stream = 0.63 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
30 km upstream in 10 hours gives a speed of 30/10 = 3 km/h relative speed of boat and stream
Same way, 44 km in 10 hrs = 4.4 km/h relative speed of boat and stream.
Let the speed of the stream be y
Let the speed of both be x, then
x - y = 3.... (1)
x + y = 4.4.... (2)
Subtract 1 from 2
2y = 1.4
y = 1.4/2 = 0.7 km/h
substitute value of y in 1
x - 0.7 = 3
x = 3.7 km/h
Also, 40 km upstream in 13 hrs gives speed of 3.08 km/h
55 km in 13 hrs gives 4.2 km/h
Let speed of boat be x and that of stream be y
x - y = 3.08.... (1)
x + y = 4.2..... (2)
Subtract 1 from 2
2y = 1. 12
y = 0.56 km/h
Substitute value of y in 1
x - 0.56 = 3.08
x = 3.64 km/h
Average speed of boat = (3.7 + 3.64)/2
= 3.67 km/h.
Average speed of stream = (0.7 + 0.56)/2 = 0.63 km/h
Answer:
Let the speed of boat in stream be x km/hrAnd the speed of boat in still water be y km/hr.For upstream = x - yFor downstream = x + yAs we know that,

Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4
= 1*25/4*25
= 25/100
(Multiplying to both numerator and denominator doesn't change the value)
Now to write 25/100 as a decimal
The decimal point goes two places to the left in 25
(Since 100 has 2 zeroes so two values back)
25/100 = .25
= 0.25

-9(-5-3x)=21
A) 8/9
B) -8/9
C) 22/9
D) -22/9
Answer: B) -8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
I would start by looking inside the parenthesis to see if anything could be simplified. We see the terms -5 and -3x, and upon realizing that there is no way to simplify, we can go ahead and just simplify the left side of the equation as much as we can before worrying about breaking the equation down. Distribute the -9 to the -5 and the -3x (multiply -9 by -5 and -9 by -3x). Multiplying two negative numbers will result in a positive value, so the left side of your equation should end up looking like this: 45+27x=21. Now, we can start working to get the variable on its own. Subtract 45 from both sides of the equation. On the left side this cancels out and leaves you with 27x. On the right side you have more of the negative value than positive value, so you end up with -24. The equation now looks like this: 27x=24. The only thing left to do is divide the equation by 27. On the left side of the equation, this leaves you with just x. On the right side, you get -24/27. Normally at this point I would divide out to get the decimal form (I prefer working with decimals) but bc the answer choices are all fractions there's not really a good use to, so instead let's just find the greatest common denominator (GCD) which would be 8. (Just as a clarification the GCD is the largest number you can divide both numbers by evenly.) Divide both the numerator and denominator by eight leaves you with -8/9. Therefore, x= -8/9.

make x the subject of the formula 6x+a=5(x+t)
Answer:
x= 5t - a
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + a = 5(x+t)
If you expand 5(x+t), you will get 5x + 5t
i.e. 6x + a = 5x + 5t
Add the additive inverse of 5x to both sides (The additive inverse of 5x is -5x)
i.e. 6x + a - 5x = 5x + 5t - 5x
x + a = 5t
Then, add the additive inverse of "a" to both sides (The additive inverse of a is -a)
i.e. x + a - a = 5t - a
x = 5t - a

ii) 3,-1/3,..........;8th term?
Step-by-step explanation:
1) To solve terms involving Geometric progressions (GPs), we would first state the variables that are to be incorporated in the formula.
i) 12,-3b,......;sixth term
1st term = a= 12
r = common ratio = 2nd term /1st term
r = -3b/12 = -b/4
Then we would find the nth term
See attachment for details
ii) 3,-1/3,..........;8th term
1st term = a= 3
r = common ratio = 2nd term /1st term
r = (-⅓)/3 = (-⅓)(⅓) = -1/9
Then we would find the nth term
See attachment for details
2) we are to determine the sixth term in (i) and eight term in (ii)
See attachment for details
Sixth term= (-3b^5)/256
Eight term = -1/1594323

Which procedure justifies whether Negative 3 x (5 minus 4) + 3 (x minus 6) is equivalent to Negative 12 x minus 6? The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (2) minus 6 = negative 30. The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (3) minus 6 = negative 42. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (negative 2) minus 6 = 18. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18.
Answer:
The correct option is;
The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 - 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
First expression 3 × X × (5 - 4) + 3 ×(X - 6)
Second expression -12 × X - 6
Therefore;
For the first expression, for all X, e have;
3 × X × 1 + 3 ×(X - 6) = -3·X + 3·X -18 = -18
The second expression gives -12·X - 6
When both expressions are equal, we have;
-12·X - 6 = -18
∴ X = (-18 + 6)/(-12) = 1
Hence the correct option is that the expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 - 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18.
Answer:
The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (2) minus 6 = negative 30
Or
Answer A
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, we're trying to see if ...
-3(x)(5 -4) + 3(x -6) = -12(x) -6
by evaluating the expressions for x=2:
-3(2)(5-4) +3(2 -6) ?= -12(2) -6
-6 -12 ?= -24 -6
-18 ≠ -30 . . . . . . . . . shows expressions are not equivalent
A company which sells farm equipment must pay a federal tax of 5.5% on every sale. Last month the company’s sales totaled $335,000. How much federal tax is owed?

Federal tax amount = $18,425
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total sales amount = $335,000
Federal tax rate = 5.5%
Find:
Federal tax amount = ?
Computation:
⇒ Federal tax amount = Total sales amount × Federal tax rate
⇒ Federal tax amount = $335,000 × 5.5%
⇒ Federal tax amount = $335,000 × 0.055
⇒ Federal tax amount = $18,425
Therefore, total amount of federal tax owed is $18,425

Inverse by solving for x without switching the variables
S=4x
Divide both sides by 4
S/4=4x/4
S/4=x
x=S/4
Or can also be written as
x=S(1/4)
If -3/x = x/-27 , What is the positive value of x
Answer:
-3=x^2/-27
x^2=(-3)(-27)
x=9 or x=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
A bag has 5 blue marbles, 4 red marbles, and 3 green marbles. A student randomly picks a marble from the bag and then rolls a number cube
with sides labeled 1 through 6.
What is the probability that the student picks a blue marble from the bag, and then rolls a 4?
A.5/72
B.5/42
C.1/3
D.7/12
Answer:
A. 5/72
Step-by-step explanation:
5 + 4 + 3 = 12 marbles
5/12 - the probability that the student picks a blue marble.
1/6 - the probability that 4 is on the cube
The probability that the student picks a blue marble from the bag, and then rolls a 4
5/12 * 1/6 = 5/72
